We can talk about Reagan or try to find some solution through history yet when things are so different now that there are no answers in history other than one thing , FEAR.
I'm so sick of politicians on some stage bantering and passing blame and grandstanding like some actor in front of the camera.
Without the worker when there we american jobs the worker had power yet were controlled by fear. Now we are in this global market competing with labor all over the globe and the cheap labor wins through capitalism.
There really is only one way to fight this which will never happen and that is for the workforce to just stop and the buyer to stop buying and then the corporate crowd wil dry up and die.
THey need the worker even the ones in a global economy so it now must be a global strike. Oh there will be the workers who will be hired to fix the machine and get paid well to do so brided by the corporate kings and in this way the worker can gain control and set the market price of what their labor is worth.
Or we refuse to buy anything not made in america and each country is on it's own other than fair trade of products as it used to be.
Greed is what got us here, so we have to cut back to basics if everyone is willing to do that before they no longer have that choice and will be forced to cut back fo lack of a job of money. Either way we need to cut back and let the cards fall where they may and then have an even playing table once again.
The way we are going cannot be sustained because even re-newable energy is not the complete answer. Natural energy is the only answer to save resources.
One cannot even define a livable wage when prices fluctuate so fast that by the time you are even you are the next day behind.
All these new jobs are aimed at the next generation and years down the road which leaves out a large section of the population.
So are we to admit this finally that many people will be left out and /or erased in the grand scheme of things?
Obama did say today this plan would either save or create 4 million jobs, which is it, a guess? 4 million jobs is not enough to even cover the people just entering the workforce. By the time 4 million jobs are created or saved 5 million will have vanished at the rate jobs are being cut.
