The CEO bonuses and corporate greed are kind of an unrelated issue to tax cuts, but you still make a good point. You could direct the tax cuts/rebates to the bottom 95% of earners in the country. That would keep the money out of the hands of the very rich. It's the bottom 95% who would be most likely to spend it.

The very rich (the top 5%) would be most likely to hoard the money, doing very little to kickstart the economy.
