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?

This whole global economy hasn't been thought through what it does to your society. Sure on paper it works, give countries like China and India money and they will buy your products and your growth will increase. In reality those countries are very protective of their economies and their people are very nationalistic in their buying. It would take hundreds of years for that to change meanwhile we are the big losers. Hate to say this and I know I will get absolutely ****ing blasted but we need to be protectionist of our economy. This is not the 1920's - 30's things are completely different and what was a bad practice then may not be such a bad practice now. We are HEMORRIGHING buying power daily... MOST people don't want a hand out, they want to work... As stated in the article the middle class PUMPS nearly all what they make back into the economy...

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.
