My ideas to jumpstart the economy

reply to post by interested-one
This could be side stepped by buying gems, gold, silver
and other tangibles.

They simply trade them for cash when they need it.

This is how bin laden moves most of his wealth via gems.

I think instead of going after the citizens as criminals we can
address things like sending trillions of dollars down the toilet
to corrupt banks.

I think we could address sending trillions of dollars to the middle east.

I think we could address giving corporate welfare to companies
that outsource jobs and break US laws and pander soft money
through lobbyists to congress critters.

But instead, lets go after the citizens and make them turn in
their money... After all there is no corruption at the top.

LOL

Keep in mind I am poor and unemployed and live in a beat up
house in the ghetto that I bought very cheap.

I am not saying give criminals a pass, but you can bicker over
thousands or you can shut off the valve on Trillions.

I think once the money that is leaving the US by the bucket loads
stop leaving and is reinvested back in the economy locally you
would see a turn around.

Good Luck to all the good ppl !

There's about 40 million people over 50 in the work force - pay them $1 million apiece severance with the following 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/pay off their mortgage -
Housing Crisis fixed.
Can't get any easier than that!

That is actually a very good idea! My hat off to you sir

One problem, One million won't last forever. These people will return to the workforce in a matter of months to years.

Sorry I thought that you might have had an original idea, you are not who I thought you were. Sorry for the confusion and also you should let people know you are posting material that is not your own.
