A bailout proposal that’s Okiedoke with me

Mike at Okiedoke has a bailout proposal that I can really get behind:
If we leave it to Congress, CEO’s and lobbyists, we will just get evermore bits of amended gobblity-goop that results in endless taxpayer debt to bolster bad business practices.
So here’s my one-size-fits-all, nationwide socialist, U.S. corporate bailout proposal:
- Remove government subsidies, tax breaks and loopholes for business.
- Institute basic national single-payer health insurance for workers and families.
The country is going deeper in debt anyway, so wouldn’t it be better to use it to help U.S. companies and give health care to Americans, than just give it to the same people who created the mess?

Yes we can!
