This allows the taxpayer to be empowered. They earn profit, apply the dividends from the future to taxes that may come later. The industries get the boost they need to survive and not one foolish homebuyer gets a free house. Instead they still pay for their home, or they rent it until they pass on. I do not see tax payers paying all of my un paid tickets because I can not afford them. I do not know what the fines are before I commit the offense only what it can max out to be.......just like the home owners that will get bailed out.OMG. So instead they can use my tax money to pay off their current loan and the government can use their power to extend the loan until the payments are low enough for them to afford, because frankly I do not care what they have to pay for their house. My credit sucks, therefore EVERYTHING I buy cost me more. YOU SCREWED up so your house will cost you more. WAH WAH. My credit sucks so my tickets go to collections and DOUBLE in cost. I guess we both should have read the fine print. Taxpayer will go to shareholder meetings and vote for the vehicles they want, clean efficient cars will be made because the shareholders that end up voting then would never assume everyone could afford a HUMMER. Low and behold from that involvement companies will be more profitable and the tax payers will benefit yet again by higher dividends, the cars they want , and jobs in the industry
