Economic Solutions

Written on April 26, 2009 – 2:16 pm | by Diane |

Here’s an instance where I believe most of us, “the little people,” have the most frustration. While we go through the motions busting our butts, the government and people will all the money are making all the decisions that are controlling those of us who are affected. A trillion dollar bailout for whom? Millions of dollars for what? Not us!!!
There are simple solutions and those of us who need the help the most know what they are. Recently, in the Business Section of the St. Petersburg Times Newspaper there was this article,
which many of us have read, asking readers for ideas on “How Would You Fix the Economy?”

Dear Mr. President,
Patriotic retirement: There’s about 40 million people over 50 in the work force; pay them $1 million apiece severance with stipulations:
1) They leave their jobs. Forty million job openings – Unemployment fixed.
2) They buy NEW American cars. Forty million cars ordered – Auto Industry fixed.
3) They either buy a house or pay off their mortgage – Housing Crisis fixed.

I would like to believe that if enough of us contribute to finding a solution that would aid “The People” that someone might listen and pay attention to us!

    I think it’s a wonderful idea as well, the dilemma is how do we implement it? I’ll bet if we added to the pot a little money for some government official, it might actually work. Thanks for commenting and the compliment!
