OK Mr. President--- What is the contingency plan?

[questionseverything]

71. i honestly can not tell what policy you are advocating

you said,

WHY, if the economy is so great, do we need to "prop it up"? Typically we only do that for things that are broken. Why would it need to be "fixed" if it is not broken? "

i did not say the economy was great but since 1913,and the creation of the fed, selling dollars has been the game plan and since i believe in working within the system we have i understand consumers are the key to the economy moving .....thru our system of government ,"we the people" need to extract better conditions from the fed


you said,

We don't need to "go" anywhere, we can be free where we are, if we choose to be. Instead of crying and begging for scraps of medical care, we arrange for our own

fifty years ago that was possible but with costs skyrocketing no one can "arrange" for surgery and other expensive treatments....single payer and limiting costs is the only reasonable way to go

you said,

we quit making unnecessary wars on people whose current government isn't playing their game.

there i agree completely

wages are not as much the problem as that there is no real help for people making those low wages,subsidized housing,food stamps,programs that help with energy costs need to be expanded not ended...for example i have no problem with farmers receiving subsidies as long as they feed America first,if a wealthy farmer gets subsidies why shouldnt every American get food stamps? every dollar spent on food stamps creates 1.79 worth of gdp...those are jobs being created for the middle man that brings that food to my cart

making our own stuff...well about 30 years ago environmentalist slowed the growth of industry with needed protections,china did not slow industry with protections and now children in china are playing under tarps to keep the pollution out...the plants being built now(car plants) are much more eco friendly and i think one of the best things current admin did was to bail gm out and save the manufacturing base we have left....we have work to do finding the best balance there

as for income inequality.....raise the death tax rate.....there is no fairer time to tax a person than upon their death..the dead guy will never miss it and his heirs have already had every possible advantage
