  Alexander - Paul is spot on. Once again you are suggesting that the government steals private money to pay the debts government irresponsibility has incurred with no idea for the consequences of that. Incidentally - doing what you suggests would barely touch the deficit and would stll require a massive curtailing of government spending. The deficit is not the same as debt.
  
  Yes, business are sitting on a pile of cash. These are their reserves and are not to be stolen by an oppressive dictatorial government. This money is there for a reason, a hedge and protection against what could go wrong and forms a significant pot of money that can be invested to grow businesses when confidence returns.
  
  Incidentally - businesses have been doing what everyone individually should do, build up a 'rainy day' pot of cash for emergencies. It is good to see that they have done this because it offers some protection and security for the people employed by them as well as the business owners. This money will be invested in realisable low risk assets to a large extent.
