spend and tax instead

I really like the idea that Dan Gillmore casually suggests in his post "Is Obama Finally Pushing Back on the Wall Street Barons Supreme Arrogance?"

For the companies who have been bailed out by the government, and who still gave out substantial bonuses, Congress should stop whining about it and impose a 100% income tax on those bonuses.

Right on.

By the way, did y'all see the total smackdown that Jon Stewart gave CNBC's Jim Cramer for being so arrogantly full of shit and knowingly misleading the public into the financial meltdown? Why is a comedy show the only news show with an actual journalist?
