DeMint, My husband and I like this plan very much. It's the best one we've seen or heard about. I know some of the Dems who voted NO on the bailout came out today with an alternative plan that was better than the other one. We ask that you fight for this bill in the Senate and talk to Sen. McCain about supporting it. We do NOT want a bill that the taxpayers have to pay for! Thanks for listening to us and our prayers will be with you. We knew there was another way.

It's hard for me to understand why any (other often insane) plan would even be considered. I would add, however, that we go a bit further on the tax issue. I propose that we go to a form of the "fair tax" as immediately as possible. A tax plan that includes no payroll taxes and no more IRS would save billions for the government NOW and put cash in every working person's pocket instantly. Do I hear someone saying "stimulus package" under their breath ? A national sales tax with no forms to fill out would fund the government . (Just have no taxes on food, clothing or shelter and limit tax amounts on automobiles.) Making sure that there were no taxes on savings and investment would flood our economy with all the Kennedy type money that is now parked offshore. This would surely loosen up the current credit situation. Thank you for showing the country and South Carolina that there is a senator that does his job of representing we, the people. It is my hope that others will follow your example. Senator,

Baby boomers have been too self-indulgent and purchase-driven. It may almost be too late for our generation to learn better behavior patterns even if we change the tax codes etc. The banking sector is in crisis now because our generation is too undisciplined. They have become dependent on government to rescue them from irresponsibility. Now, we are soon approaching a period of tremendous wealth transfer between the generations, and I am concerned that baby boomers will "blow" the money. The bailout plan is very distasteful to me but there may not be another realistic way out in the short term. Right now, I am more in agreement with Presdient Bush.
