Well, that's because the alternatives are just blatantly obvious to anybody smart enough to breathe. There have been several good, workable plans suggested right here on FR.
There have been any number of alternatives put forward by a lot of very smart people. Some of them are really interesting, many are mutually exclusive and a lot have some very serious flaws, but I certainly think they deserve to be discussed. Later in this very thread, I praised a series of steps proposed by Sabertooth on a previous thread. My point in the post you responded to was that ranting about a proposal without suggesting an alternative is generally counterproductive.
