House approves 90% tax on bonuses after bailouts

This is it? This is the best you can do? Talk about playing to the stereotype (tax and spend, anyone?). The House democrats are the new Bush Republicans, spelled S-T-U-P-I-D.

These newly elected officials and this administration's folks are supposed to be smart, in tune with the electorate. I agree with Forest Gump's mom: smart is as smart does. This ain't smart.

90% tax? Is this a joke? Doesn't anyone find this scary?

1 of 31 folks in US are in prison, on probation or on parole. Cost $47B in 2008!

The headline here says it all. This is totally nuts. It would be much cheaper for everyone to buy a baseball bat and a dog and then let about half the people of out prison. I figure a huge number of people are in prison for either low grade drug offenses—or for just not being white middle class.
