Fixing the economy is way to simple
Fixing the American economy is way to simple. All you need to do is raise taxes, across the board temporarily (4 years instead of cutting taxes, which is just insane) and use that money to put people to work building infrastructure.
That's it. It is that simple. Now the folks on unemployment have a job and industry is being subsidized by the infrastructure when it is completed. What a perfect marriage. People working, (paying taxes) are not in a depression it is those unemployed who are. This is a win win and common sense. Thank you very much hold the applause, (except for Whell, I'l accept your accolades) |
I think that was done at least once before............................................ ...

If the government hired everyone out of work, we'd have 0% unemployment.
I think this is the Dem plan :p Pete |

Noon, you are right we need job creation. I am not against raising taxes when
needed but the economy is so stagnant now is not the time. I think a better way would be to create jobs due to demand. In order to do that we have to have product shortages. A grass roots movement to buy American would be great but I do not know how to start that trend with this generation of consumers. Someone in power needs to man up and put a stop to all these imported products that send our wealth to other countries or foreign corporations. There needs to be better incentives for American companies to hire Americans and do business here. Paying 40 -50% or more in taxes and trying to compete with foreign countries sent them over there to begin with. I think once we get Americans back to work and generating income there will be money available for bridges and roads ect... I know most of you are against an American business profiting at the expense of American workers but really the only way to get back to where we were is to get back to where we were. Back up and punt and start playing defense again. The trick offense or economy didn't work. But whatever go ahead and slice and dice my comments however you guys see fit. |

- Corporations are not to be trusted. - CEO's, or anyone in the "C-Suites" in corporate America can be expected to work for their own selfish ends, and of course, when doing that, just end up screwing the little guy. - Increased taxation followed by increased government spending is the preferred way to stimulate the economy (of course, we must suspend or disregard the laws of supply and demand here, but let's not let details get in the way) - You'll resonate big time with folks here by decrying corporations for exporting jobs, but you'll lose them with that whole "better incentives for American companies" thing. No, companies should hire and retain American workers out of a sense of the common good, no matter what product that those workers produce, no matter what industry, no matter what the cost of that labor might be. Profit? You're right. Screw it, its inherently evil. - Wait, the cost of that labor is not competitive from a global perspective? Well, you'll learn that answer is to start trade wars by slapping stiff tariffs on the goods produced by and imported from Chinese and Mexican companies that have slave labor. Stick around, Jack. You've much to learn, but since you're here, there's hope for you. :D |

I liked ole Reagan, when he was around we had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash.
Now we have no Hope and no Cash. |
