How to create jobs

How to create jobs


We have the manpower, technology and resources to be a producing nation and compete in world market.
1. Protect our patents and technology
2. Utilize our education system to draw on our brightest and most innovative students.
3. Keep jobs here, by reducing costs, increase productivity, less rules and regulations make the atmosphere for business much friendlier.
4. Put a ceiling on lawsuits
5. Require honest government with integrity and transparency
6. Reduce government, increase efficiency, and eliminate redundancy
7. Pay government employees based on performance and attendance (commission)
8. Banks and financial institutions should come back to reality and provide more realistic loan requirements for homes and business


More to come

PS.
The stock market is no guide for improving economy.
The dollar is worth today 30% less than it was 3 years ago.
Take off that 30% of the stock market and you see the stock market has not increased in value.



I think it is very commendable that we become more creative and innovative.
The key to an improving society is the development of new technology that improves the lifestyle of the people.
Instead of downgrading, you should ask more pertinent questions about the product and give constructive critic.
Today more than ever America needs to be creative and innovative. That hopefully would bring about more jobs and improve economic conditions.

As long as people abide by the laws & regulations - City, State and Federal - They are entitled under the Constitution to live in America anywhere they want.
There are throughout America man enclaves of diverse religions and customs.
This is what is great about America its diversity and tolerance.
This country was built with immigrants from every part of the world.
We should learn to live with each other in peace and harmony.
Anyone who rejects tolerance is bound to destroy himself and the people around him.
Thank you

United States today is a paper tiger - America has lost its influence on international events.
As our economic structure is disintegrating so is out influence.
The Dollar is no longer the desired world currency.
Under the current administration we have an unstable policy towards foreign governments.
In short the trust in America is eroding and will continue to erode.
America will no longer be the world power.
We can no longer buy foreign governments loyalty with money.

Rebuilding Trust in Our Government (R)

Rebuilding Trust in Our Government (R)


One of Americas statesmen stated “government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.” His presidency ushered in an era of disdain for government and a widespread cynicism that government could be effective in addressing our challenges.
Today, as we confront a crisis that has shaken confidence in our financial system and economy, we have an opportunity to restore public trust and confidence in the legitimate role of government. Indeed, to effectively tackle our economic challenges and to implement the reforms we need in our healthcare, education, energy, and environmental policies, our government will need to garner strong public support.
However, rebuilding public trust will not happen in the face of a pervasive perception that government is not transparent and accountable, cronyism is rampant, and public officials are more interested in helping themselves than in serving the public good.
Taking strong, swift, and decisive action to address abuses and begin to rebuild public trust should be the first priority for our city, state and federal government in the new legislative session.
Create a Task Force on Public Integrity with a mission to develop a comprehensive proposal for ethics and lobbying reform in our city and state. Which addresses reforms in three areas: (1) strengthening enforcement of ethics, campaign finance, and lobbying laws; (2) strengthening civil and criminal penalties for abuses; and (3) improving awareness and education for public officials.
Reinforce honesty, integrity and transparency by government officials as the core requirement to be and stay in office, any violations of these core tenets will cause the removal of the public official and the loss of "all benefits" retroactive. I think we should consider putting public official on a base salary plus commission based on performance.
While the many of our elected officials and government employees are honest, dedicated public servants, the actions of a few create a dark cloud over all.
Taking strong, swift, and decisive action to address these abuses and begin to rebuild public trust should be the first priority for our city, state and federal government in the new legislative session.

PS

We need honest government with integrity.
“Good leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion”
Public confidence in the integrity of the Government is indispensable to faith in democracy; and when we lose faith in the system, we have lost faith in everything we fight and spend for.
As citizens of this democracy, you are the rulers and the ruled, the law-givers and the law-abiding, the beginning and the end.

Change is inevitable. Change for the better is a full-time job.

Action speaks louder than words.



Every age needs men who will redeem the time by living with a vision of the things that are to be.

Freedom is not an ideal; it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than the freedom to stagnate.


Action speaks louder than words.

An Independent is someone who wants to take the politics out of politics, a person with principles.
