I like Peter's "clawback" proposal.

Unlike some of the private sector representatives on the list, I don't 
see such conditions as the imposition of new impediments to development. 
Development has always been supported by a wide range of "carrots" and 
limited by a wide range of "sticks." Many of those are taken for granted 
because they have been in state and federal tax code for a long time. 
Peter's proposal would refocus such carrots and sticks, not introduce 
them for the first time.
