Well, this week has been tough for the country, heck even the world. Credit is drying up, markets are in a panic, small businesses are laying off employees in droves. I saw this personally with bank loans this week on a travel trailer I own.
I am not at all happy about the federal government getting involved in this crisis, but the country and small businesses are in a complete panic. A local company auto dealer laid off nearly 40 employees this week. Sales are at an all time low - from about 150 cars per week being moved to 20 per month.
I am fortunate enough to not have car payments, but everything I have is at least 12 years old.
88 honda civic
91 honda civic
96 chevy suburban
All paid for. I can't image a car payment on top of my mortgage and property payments.
I do think that this regulation is leading us towards socialism. Whats amazing is that many Americans know how to solve this problem without more tax payer money. It's simple conservative economics.
- The USA needs to go into complete isolationism
- Get out of NATO and foreign entaglements
- Stop supporting foreign dictators who hate us
- Become completely energy independent through wind, nuclear and oil drilling.
- destroy the welfare state and limit welfare to 12-18 months one time
- start using land to farm additional crops. The world is coming to a food shortage.
- Export goods instead of import
- Diversify the workforce and have Americans learn to farm again
- Drill, Drill, Drill and export what oil we don't use.
- Nuclear power and wind power to charge autos of the future - plug in hybrids
- Upgrade the energy grid to support this new infrastructure
- Broadband internet and technology connectivity everywhere to stimulate this diversified workforce, telecommuting
- Build a huge wall at the border, tazer anyone coming across the border illegally
- Get rid of regulation and zoning which deprives land owners from significant value and possible small business start-ups
- Reduce the capital gains tax from 0-5% to get businesses to bring their money back to the USA
- Reduce building regulations so land owners can build low cost houses on their own. It costs more to permit a mobile home than it costs to put a used one on a piece of property. It's extorsion and artificial inflation of the market to increase government's taxable property value.
Do this and watch this economy boom....
If only the politicians were not so entagled with their own special interest groups.. this could be implemented and America would once again lead the world in productivity, exports and wealth.
