RECESSION PROOF AMERICA
1) Reduce permanently 10% of the federal and state work force - those left need work harder like most workers still working are forced to do,

2) Make all government employees INCLUDING senators, house of reps & the President /VP give up earning any more pension benefits (like most americans no longer have), INSTEAD give them a match of 50% on up 6% of their annual wage they contribute into a 403B plan - USE the TAX savings resulting from the dropping of new pension TO PROPERLY FUND SOCIAL SECURITY FOR THE TAXPES SINCE THATS 10 year from going BROKE

3) Have the FEDERAL government stop paying 80% for federal employee families health premium - drop it to 50%,

4) Increase the FEDERAL employee health insurance deductible to $1000 like most private employers now have,

5) make all senators and house of representatives serve NO MORE than 2 term limits - ends the power of long term senators, etc to force senators, etc to approve EARMARKS on bills alreday released from committee

6) Go to a flat tax Federal tax program so the IRS audits can stop (laying off 50% of that organizations tax payer supported staff)

7) after 1st child's birth to a single mom STOP paying for single mom's child birth , offer free sterilization - more than 1/2 the baby's being born in the US now being paid for by the government (TAXPAYERS in other words) and don't give these single mom's, who are abusing the free childbirth /single mom welfare system by having child after child out of wedlock, money to support more than 1 child

8) NO Social Security, Medicaid or Medicare benefits to ANYONE NOT A US CITIZEN even if their "citizen" child brings them into the US - as are all being done now for NON Citizens!

9) Give the President Line Item Veto rights

10) Give life in prison to ANY politician find guilty of any abuse of power or corruption while in office

11) OUR prisons - lower the taxes to care for the Prisoners - no more coffee or juice, let them drink water at ALL MEALS, feed them oatmeal/toast for breakfast, peanut butter/jelly sandwiches with crackers for lunch and inexpensive stew (easy to make and serve requiring less kitchen labor) And for medicines make them pay the FULL COST of medicine - why reduce their costs out of taxpayers pockets ? I didn't unjustly put them in prison THEY BROKE the law - suffer the CONSEQUENCES


STOP THE MADNESS


P.S. Anyone running on the above platform will WIN any FUTURE elections, so Go for IT you TRUE AMERICANS!

hi people dont know if you saw my post last fall yes in 2007, was reading some of this propaganda ,,,hard times are the fault of our media ....if they wrote of good times and big spending like they did in 1997,,,we would all be thinking things were good. but i must not leave out big oil,,,bushes friends as well as the wall street ,,idiots who he backs as well..if mccain wins ,,,i will see you in the soup kitchen as i leave this country...patriotic screw it ...this counrty only cares for the rich

News that the big three auto makers will soon become one unit is confirmation of the pessimism that is now sweeping America. The auto industry is dependent on the world economy and the wisest of people predict a long world wide recession. Economists say that we have reached peak demand for the use of the automobile and public transportation will eventually replace individual ownership. It is obvious that most of us no longer can live in high style, we have been living large for too long and it is now time to pay the piper.

Our nation is now imploding and despite government bailout efforts the downward spiral will not end until is it reaches a sustainable level. When that happens private industry will be flooded with applicants for employment and pay only the minimum wage. The average income will be used just for food and shelter. It will be hard times but once again our nation will rise after learning a bitter lesson. Living within ones means will then become the golden rule.

Most middle class Americans have paid the price of fun time to be where they are financially. While others were busy having sex or watching ballgames, they spent most of their time figuring out ways to make a buck. Success is not for a chosen few, its for the few that choose it. If you are a person that is going to spend most of your youth having fun do not expect to earn a decent salary in the future. But never be jealous of those that made the sacrifice.

I quite possibly couldn't be more prosperous, like everyone else I know and associate with. Last I saw, 95% of the pop is employed, so who are all you people referring to, that can't make it in a country with unreal opportunity and freedoms? Are you sure that's the side you want to be hanging with? 3.7 mil jobs currently posted on CareerSitesCompany.com, and that's just one site. People are foreclosing because they are irresponsible and bought at the top of the bubble. They don't like paying on an upside down house, and since they invested nothing it, may as well walk. No pres will make a difference in my life. You should have the same thinking if you're going to have any hope.

... it's so important to disregard opinionist political comments, for the sake of blood pressure.

Everything shown above are the things that need to be changed in this country. These are economic problems, moral problems, intellect problems, and health problems. It's ridiculous that we can't go to the doctors when we need to. Make-up and gambling? The middle class we knew and loved, who could afford to care about these trivial, mindless things in times of recession, have GONE. They are broke. They are foreclosing. They have left the building.

Remember when everyone could afford food? Those were good times...

Everyone is worried about Obama's policies. businesses are cutting jobs and are not spending. The do noihing Dem Congress got us here, Even Clinton admitted it.

Jobs need to be brought back to this country, not created. We lost 15 million jobs in the last 8 years to China and India. Duh! No wonder houses are being foreclosed. India is graduating 400,000 tech and science students a year, and China 500,000. While americans have seen their jobs go overseas, they have no interest to get degrees in science or tech, (only 70,000 will graduate) It was a mistake that CIO's and CEO's made to save a little money. Now East Indian tech workers are getting paid $70 per hour, and their training is only 3.5 months. These jobs can easily be done by Americans.

In a few weeks we will make a choice that will decide our future.
I follow a economist named bob proctor who has called the top and bottom of every market crash since the 70s correctly.
He perfectly predicted the current real estate market meltdown ,and the picture he paints about what will happen in the next couple years
Is terrifying. He thinks it could get worse then the great depression.
Banks in the US are going under one after the other. Country wide the largest morgage bank in the world
Bear Stearns and Lehman brothers , and Merrill Lynch which are 3 out of the top 5 wall street firms.
And now Fanny and Freddy which hold 50 percent of the home loans in the United States.
The goverment took them over because they are essentially bankrupt.
If they didn't the entire financially system would virtually shut down, the stock market would crash
And we would suffer beyond what any of us have seen before
The future of these companies will fall into the hands of our next president
Lehman, Merill Lynch, and Bear Sterns have survived for over 150 years and survived even the great depression
They are important because the are the biggest engines of growth in america and
they are connected to almost everything.
The last time the real estate market numbers looked this bad was during
The great depression and real estate often leads the way into major economic recessions.
Bush just like Mcain doesn't understand the economy.
That not just my opinion its his own words. Not only does he not understand how to fix itHe does not understand exactly what is broken.Its no surprise that he doesnt. The people that make up these securities use complex math models very few people understand.They are basically bundles of thousand of loans some good and some bad that are then given rules based on complex math. It will take the best and brightest minds in the world to get us out of this, and the same things bush and mcain have done for the last 8 years
Have not worked so far and wont work in the future.
if you do what you have always done then you will do get what you have always got
90 percent of the time they have voted the same.
Please don't just take my word for it Start to read up on some of this yourself. MSN money, elliot wave and, bloomberg Have tons of articles That prove we are in the heading into one of the worst economies any one has ever seen. So why are the polls even close then ?
The chairman of mcains campaign recently said that people don't vote on issues
they vote on a personality composite which means. He is trying to sell personality instead of results.He believes people will vote against there own self interests.
Lets teach him we are smarter then that and elect the ticket that can
bring us back from the brink of a economic abyss.Mcain admits in the year 2008 he cannot use a computer even to send email.It impossible then that he understands how to help us. its time to wake up now while it will still help

If discounters like Walmart do better in a recession, it's no wonder they are strong-arming their employees to vote for McCain!! So what if the employees keep their jobs short-term, ultimately many small towns have ecollapsed after Walmart takes over. In many instances after Walmart has made its profits in these small towns, they then close up and leave like vultures.

HEY, a downturn in the economy is good for the liquor distribution business? And please explain why McCain won't profit from an economic downturn? Shades of Cheney/Bush and the obscene record oil company profits we've seen over the last 8 years!!

Hey, if the liquor business is good in a downturn, then it is in the McCain's best interest to have a downturn!
