THE NOTION THAT THIS "RECESSION" WILL BE LONG IS INTERESTING...
I'D CALL THAT A DEPRESSION...!!
BECAUSE, WE ARE ENTERING A VAST ECONOMIC DARK AGE WHILE THE WORLD TRIES TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE FUCK WENT WRONG...
WELL, FOR OPENERS...A LOT OF IT IS OBVIOUS...
THE US FAILED TO PROTECT IT'S MARKETS...MAKING IN EFFECT THE SAME MISTAKE THAT THE BRITISH DID BACK IN THE 19THE CENTURY... BASICALLY THE GREED TOOK OVER AND NO ONE COULD STOP IT...
UNTIL THE WHOLE MESS COLLAPSES FROM IT'S INTERNAL CONTRADICTIONS!
BUT:
SO AS NOT TO BE CONSTANTLY NEGATIVE... CONSIDER:
I SUGGEST SOME TARIFFS ON ALL OF THESE "CHEAP LABOR" GOODS...
JUST TO PAY FOR THE RESTORATION OF THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS...
AND MUCH HIGHER TAXES ON THE VASTLY WEALTHY...WHO BENEFITED MOST FROM THE RECENT DISASTEROUS ASSET INFLATION...DURING THE GREENSPAN BUBBLES.
SINGLE PAYER NATIONAL HEALTH CARE WOULD DO WONDERS ASAP TO RESTORE AMERICAN COMPETITIVENESS IN THE WORLD...
SOCIAL SECURITY SHOULD BE MEANS TESTED...AND THE "CAP" SHOULD GO TO $500,000.
AND SOCIAL SECURITY SHOULD BE CALLED A "PENSION TAX"...NOT A TRUST FUND WHICH IT NEVER WAS...AND NEVER WILL BE. YOU ARE NOT REALLY "PAYING INTO" ANYTHING...LETS DROP THE LEGAL FICTION AND GET REAL.
MANUFACTURING HAS TO BE ENCOURAGED IN THE US...WITHOUT HIGH VALUE ADDED PRODUCTION THERE IS NO WAY THE SET THINGS RIGHT...
AND AMERICA'S NEW "INFANT INDUSTRIES" SHOULD HAVE A SMALL TARIFF ADVANTAGE...SINCE AFTER ALL THEY ARE PAYING TAXES FOR LOCAL ROADS, SCHOOLS, WELFARE AND HEALTH EXPENSES FOR THE POOR...
WHAT THE FUCK DOES CHINA PAY TOWARD THE AMERICAN "SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE??"
NOTHING!!
SO THERE ARE GOOD SOLUTIONS...BUT WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF THE BULLSHIT IN THE BARNYARD BEFORE WE CAN EVEN BEGIN TO IMPLEMENT ANY OF THEM...
I AM HOPING THAT A MC CAIN PRESIDENCY WILL SO DESTROY THE NATION...THAT EVEN THE STUPIDEST REPUBLICAN "RED STATE" ASSHOLE WILL FINALLY SEE THE LIGHT AND DEMAND THAT THE LOOTING BE STOPPED...
BUT WE AREN'T THERE YET...
WE NEED A ONE TERM MC CAIN PRESIDENCY TO FOCUS THE MINDS OF AMERICA'S VAST STUPID MAJORITY WHO STILL THINK THAT "GAY MARRIAGE" IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE...
I PERSONALLY DON'T VOTE...BECAUSE I FIND THE CURRENT PROCESS OF "MONEY AS FREE SPEECH" INSULTING TO ME...
BUT I WILL SUPPORT, ENCOURAGE AND PROMOTE A MC CAIN PRESIDENCY FROM NOW ON!!
ONLY MC CAIN CAN TRASH THIS COUNTRY IN A WAY THAT WILL RESULT IN A "NEW DAWN" SOMETIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE... (CALL IT "CREATIVE DESTRUCTION?")
BUT THERE IS A LOT OF SUFFERING TO BE DONE BEFORE THAT HAPPY DAY IS UPON US...!
