I agree with Mr. Novelli. Also I wish to add: remove all CEO's, Chief Financial Officers, and all Board of Directors on the companies and corporations that are wanting a hand out and those that have gone bankrupt like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Those individual need to be replaced with others from within or without the company. Loans from the US Govern. with interest need to awarded to help those companies not a handout or dole.
