Via Jon Markman, that’s another option to either version of the train wreck that’s passed through one house of Congress, per Brian Reynolds.
He says Paulson should give $500 billion in rebates to all Americans via Fannie Mae zero-coupon bonds maturing in 15 years.
John P. Hussman has a similar idea, not involving Fannie Mae, for a “superbond” to be issued, though not necessarily to every American citizen.
That all said, Markman thinks the bailout issue (in some festooned form or another) will pass, but probably won’t work.
