America’s Long Range Solution

Nov. 11 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. economy will be slow to recover from the deepest recession since the 1930s as rising unemployment curbs consumer spending, Federal Reserve officials said.

The jobless rate will exceed 10 percent through the first half of 2010, according to a monthly Bloomberg News survey of economists. The rate jumped to 10.2 percent in October, the highest level since 1983, according to a Labor Department report on Nov. 6. The economy has lost 7.3 million jobs since the recession began in December 2007.

Now I ask would it be more useful for America to extend larger resources to merely creating more jobs or going the extra mile of creating more careers.

Many Americans these days need to work sixty plus hours per week including two or three jobs just to maintain family, food and shelter.   America’s economic long range solution (goal) needs to be more career positions not just more low paying jobs.  After all the baby boomers or the majority of America’s population  is growing older. Can these folks continue physically to extend themselves in such a manner as exemplified with first working in a convenience store (job 1), second working at a major retail chain (job 2), and third working in fast food (job 3)?
America needs to create more incentives for big business staying in America and developing or creating career employment positions for the majority of Americans. This would develop careers with good pay, good insurance and good retirement packages for the majority of Americans.  The majority of Americans could thus resume the American dream and not planning their weekly schedules of job 1 to job 2 to job 3. 

(CNNMoney.com) -- McDonald's plans to open 1,000 new restaurants next year and renovate 2,300 existing locations.  Specifically, McDonald's plans for 150 new U.S. locations plus: 260 in Europe; 490 across Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Australia; 80 in Latin America; and 20 in Canada.
 
This is potentially an example of creating 150 new U.S. restaurants but in reality how many career positions?

At least 150 managers.  Not my kind of career, but it works for a lot of people.

10%+ Unemployment Through 2015, Says Mish Mike "Mish" Shedlock

Back in the early 1990's, then Presidential candidate Ross Perot tried warning the American public that we needed to re-establish our manufacturing base and stop allowing corporations to ship our jobs to other countries but most did not listen. This shouldn't be shocking to anyone including elected officials.  After all, they aided and abetted in helping to create the current economic conditions.  The real dilemma is how to create wealth for all Americans, not for only the top two percent; protect economic stability while protecting liberties and advancing freedom... not just create low wage jobs, any moron can do that.

The corporations and bankers are the ones responsible for destroying ours and the world economy. They hold allegiance to none and no country. They are international citizens of a borderless world, owning all that is... with you, me and every one of us little "earthlings" doing their bidding as their servants and under their COMPLETE control. These elitists are nothing but a bunch of parasitic criminal leeches who would be... and have nothing if not for all of us. This is nothing new, it has been going on for decades right in front of our faces but unfortunately, humans are lazy and greedy beings that hold to the notion that it is easier and quicker to conquer and exploit rather than work hard to do what is right for the entire world's inhabitants and so most buy into the corrupted system.

It is the corporations and banking system who have been systematically and stealthily working behind the scenes since as early as the mid 1800's in formulating a shadow government and pulling the strings of our elected officials through lobbyists, campaign contributions, favors and perks and the list goes on and on, effectively corrupting politicians and the system over time while we are all entertained by the mass-media outlets and eat a Big Mac. To understand more, please read my article on "The Corporations and the Twilight Zone".

The mainstream Bloomberg survey says The jobless rate will exceed 10 percent through the first half of 2010.  Exceed 10 percent? What does that mean?  12%? 15%? or 19%?  I would venture to bet that it has already exceeded 20% since it does not take into account those unemployed and outside the system for which there are no statistics (unless you want to include me) in support of the Bloomberg survey.

The survey report goes on to claim that "The economy has lost 7.3 million jobs since the recession began in December 2007."  "Since the recession began..." how many were already unemployed before the recession "began" and how many more are not accounted for? Another two million? Five? Ten? More???  If you look at the larger picture, the jobless rate is much worse than we are being told and so is the economy for which any real recovery could be decades from now if ever once completely under the globalist agenda's control.

As I see it, the only logical Long Range Solutions to America’s employment dilemma and economic problems are as follows:

1.  Repeal the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 and End the corrupt Federal Reserve System and return to interest free, sound money as originally required according to the U.S. Constitution.

2.  Repeal the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and remove/deny any and all reference and (rights) to corporate entities, designating them as a person.

3.  Abolish the illegal Internal Revenue System that that serves no legitimate or useful purpose except to fund the private banking system.

4.  End phony fiat paper currency that is backed by NOTHING except for the blood, sweat and tears of the wage-slave and their future generations.

5.  Amend the U.S. Constitution with appropriate wording without corporate loopholes so that a major economic crisis might never happen again.

6.  Encourage and re-establish a strong manufacturing base so that we can provide for our nation's consumer needs and regain our place in the world as a major supplier of goods.

7.  Create a system that ensures a livable wage.

8.  Secure our national borders and deport all illegal immigrants.

9.  Balance the Budget and control spending.

10. (enter and work on your solution here)  (get involved in your government here)


I could go on and on but I'm sure you get the point.  Feel free to add your own solutions. Maybe if we all decide to work together as responsible citizens, instead of Republican against Democrat, Liberal vs. Conservative, right against left, etc., etc., we just might be able to GET BACK TO WORK and rebuild what was once a great nation.

Nuffsed... for now!

That makes far too much sense, aurealeus. Not gunna happen if it makes sense.

Can you come up with something where everyone has to wear tin foil hats for a week?

I think tin-foil hats have been worn for the last several generations.
