Our economy a must read
3 Articles that decribe how we are where we are and why the Bloods or the Crips are not going to fix it.
The Problem http://www.businessinsider.com/middl...decline-2012-8 How to fix it http://www.businessinsider.com/how-t...e-chart-2012-8 Greed WAS good http://www.businessinsider.com/econo...s-wages-2012-6 |
from the first article:
The causes of this middle-class decline are many, from globalization (jobs being shipped overseas), to the decline of private-sector unions, to the wholesale embrace of a "shareholder value" religion that values profit over everything else that companies produce. But the result of the trend can be seen vividly in two charts the underlined part is a HUGE reason for our current problems, with companies going as automated as possible, and with burdening as few people as possible with as much work as possible. our productivity is tremendous, but income doesn't reflect that. |

al-Qaeda , Iraq, Iran ? I see these parasitic CEO's sucking the last revenues off the dying corpse as more of a threat. Obama stood there and said he was going to remove the loop holes and rewards for shipping jobs overseas 4 years ago. I voted for him and he failed me. He is nothing more than simply another politician pushing his parties agenda. |
one thing i read is that taxes are lower than ever on the rich, yet that hasn't meant any job growth. tax the bejesus out of them, they'll be looking for tax havens then! that would include jobs.
yeah, it would be nice if you could get the rich to pay more. but just by showing them that article probably wouldn't do a thing. it's like when you're raising a child, and he does something wrong. bad grades, broke rules, whatever. you care as the parent...the trick is making the kid care so that he won't do it again. so, we have to make the rich care. how? |

Yeah unfortunately it's too late.
All of those supply orders that ring hollow will have meaning if a valid attempt at restoring true patriotism and pride in this country occurs. And to even get to that point would take years to accomplish because the majority of Americans still believe we could be invaded tomorrow without big daddy bald eagle super military in our lives protecting us. I just want it all to end really. Tired of waiting for the end game these cocksuckers have planned for us. |
