I don't want one payer. I want 150,000,000 individual wage earners out there spending money. 70% of the economy is private individuals spending money. Isn't it better to give more power to the 70% than the 30%?<BR/><BR/>Having a FICA holiday for a year is the fastest and cheapest way to kick start the economy. I would get more than $700 a month to spend, save, or invest.<BR/><BR/>And the other thing is that there is tons of cash out there in the economy. No one is willing to spend it until the government has one plan and sticks to it. <BR/><BR/>As long as there is massive uncertainty about what Geitner and Obama will do (it's not like they even know what they are doing - every time either one opens their mouth about the economy the Dow Jones loses 300 points) everyone with cash is going to sit on it.<BR/><BR/>Just imagine if people making more money than me are behind on their mortgage and they get to keep more of their wages. They will catch up on their mortgage. Those who have no debt will be free to save or invest as they see fit. <BR/><BR/>That is the only fair and just way to do this. Otherwise, the wise stewards are bailing out the unwise steward and we just dig a deeper hole.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00166170512501964431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18749247.post-41361162431325188882009-03-03T16:03:00.000-06:002009-03-03T16:03:00.000-06:00HiI stumbled across your blog on LDS BLOGS.

I thought you might be interested in a site my wife and I just built called MormonsMadeSimple.com, which uses simple, explanatory videos to explain the Mormon faith. Feel free to feature any of these videos on your blog, or just share them with non-member friends. We're hoping these videos will be missionary tools to help members share their beliefs. Anyway, sorry to spam your comments section. I couldn't find any contact information for you on your blog.<BR/> <BR/>- Doug & LaurelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18749247.post-51175109868966064972009-03-03T14:49:00.000-06:002009-03-03T14:49:00.000-06:00ha ha! the best quote from this is the bureaucrac...ha ha! the best quote from this is the bureaucracy immortality thing. it's so true!<BR/><BR/>there's only two ways out of this: kick start spending (the gov't is the only one with deep enough pockets to do that now) or drastically revalue assets. if we did the latter, almost every bank in america would fail.<BR/><BR/>in other news, i had dinner the other night with someone who works for the FDIC. he's got LOTS of work these days... when God closes a door, he always opens a window... :)WhiteEyebrowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690985234217264274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18749247.post-63406669499938274822009-03-03T12:23:00.000-06:002009-03-03T12:23:00.000-06:00ridiculous... the subject, not the article...
