All most all of the Lawmakers have fail to perform and do what they were sent to Washington to do.
The following Two go hand hand.
1. Our GDP needs to increase. As Products sells of Products made in America, Taxes increase (income ) Lowering the debt, less welfare.
2. As GDP increases there becomes a need for more jobs. Our country needs meaningful jobs.
Jobs one can raise a family on.
If a product is sold that merchandise needs to be made on our soul.
When the Goods are not produced on our soil their should be a charge for the market.
I order to sell at a Flea market, mall on has to Lease, rent a space. They charge for their market.
Food stores , Walmart, Target, K-mart charges for space in their stores. The brands pay good money for space in the stores.
Another help in bettering the economy is Investing in American.
Warren Buffett has taken the lead. He also said that the super rich should be taxed more.
Buffett Got Super Rich by buying cheap. It looks like now it the time to Buy American, Now is the time to investment in America.
Mr Buffett makes moves that are sound. His riches are no good if the USA economy
Goes down the Toilet. Before one can make a new product you have to have a place
that is stable to manufacture the Wares. One needs trained workers, You also needs Tools and raw materials. Point you have to make an investment.
Some have bought American companies to send jobs to other countries terminating jobs on our soil. Then selling the product allowing the buyer to assume it is American made.
The American Made meant it was a superior product.
America has had to world most trained and experienced work force.
By sending the manufacturing of products to outsourcing has caused us to lose out edge. Bad for America.
Before too many years pass we need to cause American jobs to return to our soil.
1 Invest in America
2 Educate our potential work force. I have always though it was crazy to not hire someone because they were over qualified. The companies that are strong and growing are hiring over qualified workers. These people get promoted. Some supervisor don't want to have someone under them that is smarter then them. They are a threat. When in the real and now they would made their team look good. if upper management can not see this they need to be replaced or retrained.
3 Be American, produce the Goods in the USA on our soil.
4. Tax charge for the use of our markets by foreign companies. If they make enough of their product here give them a break.
5. We have lost most of our metal producing factories to overseas because of EPA rules. Their are other rules that companies get around by making the product off of USA land. If the product does not meet our standards and laws don't allow the to sell it here don't let it on our soil.
6. Toys made in China and sold here that had lead in paint unfair market. They need to pay for use of our markets. Tax them so the have to be inspected as if they were made on our soil. Most $4 drugs made in China. In the USA the drug are inspected. These foreign companies should have to meet or exceed the rule of ones made here. They need the American markets, Charge them for the market. Charge a fee. Tax and inspect till our Jobs return. Make America strong again.
We can not be strong with over 8 million jobs lost.
The Government debt will continue to grow until meaningful jobs are back on our soil. Every Job Lost means upward of $20,000.00 a year in unemployment and entitlement program ( food stamps health insurance, etc.)
The USPS missmangement is going to do away with 200,000 jobs.
200,000
x $20,000 a year
-------------------
$4,000,000,000
Need Jobs. 1# problem. If we don't have jobs this country is going the be brought to its knees.
Cuts begets Cuts. Once Cuts starts they will not end. We did not need cuts until there was lost of jobs on USA soil.
The Jobs are still in the world just not here. They were American Jobs.
We do not need to send out tax money over seas to help countries there.
Send Food so our farmers can get paid. We do not need to send tax payer's money or jobs to other countries..
Money spent on our soil is return all or in part in the form of taxes already in place.
Lower taxes has never help the economy. Raising taxes puts confidence in America.
Our debt rating is based on The USA ability to repay its loans. The government has to authority to raise taxes in order to pay their debt.
