I had a couple of ideas on stimulating the economy, but I wanted to hear what everyone else had to suggest. Ideas?

I think that instead of the government giving the large bail out bill to the banks they should have bought up the faulty loans from the banks. Because now that the banks have all the money, they are sitting on it and not doing anything with it. If all of their faulty loans had been bought up then there would be no need for them to be really cautious about how they spend it.

Send all the tax payers a rebate check in the mail. Enough money to actually make a difference. I think if they did that instead of what they are doing now. people would be out spending money right now which in turn would help the businesses. The businesses would be so busy so they would have to hire people etc...
