Green Energy Solutions

How would Obama react to this?
How do you think the apparent second coming of Christ would react to a windfall profits tax on oil company profit, but instead of going to the government (to be "invested in green energy solutions") it would go directly into the hands of tax payers, via checks, like the stupid rebate checks? I think he'd be opposed to the idea. But what would be his reason... 1. He doesn't think the American people deserve it? 2. He doesn't think that Americans will spend it responsibly? 3. He's just incredibly jealous because he can't dictate where the money goes? Add your own snarky comment if you'd like. Addendum: I am in no way in favor of any windfall profits tax, ever. I consider it un-American to tax what a group of bitter people deems "excessive profits".

What are the Causes of The World and USA's Economic ,Problems.?
Specifically ,How Can we correct this so it well not happen again? This is an open question. Opinions are Ok ,yet I Am looking for Real Solutions . I entered this Question on Politics Section and received these answers. 1] Mike Moral decline. 2]RELAX Don't let stupid people vote for the one they would most like to have a beer with. My God this administration was so corrupt and secretive we don't even know the real extent of the damage. Open government is one way we can help to keep it from happen. 3] Evil Independent Bottom line here in the US is everyone was spending more than they could afford, including our government. It has to stop eventually, but our government is trying more of the same old crap to try to get us out of it. It won't work. 4] bonsai It's very simple. Since Reagan, our world economy, with the USA as main motor is a pyramid scheme. A - As long as everybody spends, the pyramid scheme works. B - When the spending stops, the pyramid scheme is exposed as a house of cards. There is only one solution - to get back to actually be productive, instead of just moving money around. The bailouts are a feeble attempt to hold of the tumbling of the card house, it won't work. What we need is people getting of their fat backs and work for their money, instead of driving to an office every day and sell each other insurances, mutual funds, bigger cars, more houses and useless plastic crap from China. What we need is modern infrastuctures, green energy solutions, updated technologies, better education, not trying to hold on to the outdated, disfunctional status 5] My thought . We don?t usually think of history as being shaped by silence, but, as English philosopher Edmund Burke said, ?The only thing necessary for the triumph [of evil] is for good men to do nothing.?
