What will you do?

There are all kinds of clever ways to generate revenue, no? I think the best ways are not to tax or fine the average Joe directly. Regressive taxes like the porposed cap and trade are a prime example.

So you'd prefer a more complex approach that would take the money from Joe's wallet without Joe being aware of it? (Which is essentially what happens when government relies on borrowing instead of taxes for it's revenue).

Or would you prefer the more usual approach (especially favored by liberals) which is to make the Big Tycoons pay all the taxes?

Currently I am paying the mandatory $50 per month for private health insurance. Those damn statists!!!
