An American suggestion for solving their crisis

When the people fear their government, there is tyranny;
when the government fears the people, there is liberty.

Thomas Jefferson.

The Fix on the economy!

There recently was an article in the St. Petersburg Fl. Times. The Business
Section asked readers for ideas on: "How Would You Fix the Economy?"
I think this guy nailed it!

Dear Mr. President,

Please find below my suggestion for fixing America 's
economy. Instead of giving billions of dollars to
companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and
unearned bonuses, use the following plan. You can call it
the "Patriotic Retirement Plan":

There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work
force. Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early
retirement with the following stipulations:

1) They MUST retire. Forty million job openings -
Unemployment fixed.

2) They MUST buy a new American CAR. Forty million
cars ordered – Auto Industry fixed..

3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage
– Housing Crisis fixed.

It can't get any easier than that!!

P.S. If more money is needed, have all members in Congress
pay their taxes....

Mr. President, while you're at it, make Congress retire
on Social Security and Medicare. I'll bet both programs
would be fixed pronto!

Very True..........Average Americans aren't as dumb as they seem?


It does seem simple, doesn't it?
