HOW TO FIX THE ECONOMY FAST

This was an article from the St. Petersburg Times Newspaper
on Sunday. The Business Section asked readers for ideas on

"How Would You Fix the Economy?"

I thought this was the BEST idea…I think this guy nailed it!

Dear Mr. President,

Patriotic retirement:

There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work

force – Pay them $1 million apiece severance with the
following stipulations:

1. They retire immediately.

Forty million job openings – Unemployment fixed.

2. They buy NEW American cars.

Forty million cars ordered – Auto Industry fixed.

3. They either buy a house or pay off their mortgage.

Housing Crisis fixed.

It can't get any easier than that!

P. S. If more money is needed, have all members in Congress
and their constituents pay their taxes.

I wonder how many of our 'elected' lawmakers have their retirement funds in AIG. That would be like the fox guarding the hen house.

Seems like there should be a major investigation and find out who should NOT have been allowed to vote on the bailout package for AIG.

Now all of a sudden they're going to try and recover the money. I think there should be some serious prison time for the higher ups in AIG and some of the politicians that were in on this AIG bailout from the start.

I think anyone in that organization who took a bonus from OUR tax dollars should pay a really hefty price for what is basically fraud and misappropriation.

Remember this fiasco the next time you vote for your lawmakers.

How about a law for full disclosure of financial interests before you can get on a ballot?

Oh yeah, we might actually have decent, honest people to vote for, for a change.

Maybe even have people in office that actually care about how our country is run and keep things like this from getting out of hand in the future.

Right.

That's what every marketer I sign up with says on their sign up form. You know, down at the bottom in small print.

I have signed up lately at a few different places for different types of information. And now all of a sudden I'm getting a lot of email from places I've never heard of and wondering why.

When I scroll to the bottom of the email there's a disclaimer that they are Can-Spam compliant because I signed up with one of their 'marketing affiliates'.

OK, now all the marketers I signed up with said they respected my privacy and would 'never' sell or rent my contact information.

So, who's really telling the truth and who's basically outright lying?

How about marketers that don't let you off their list? I unfortunatly happen to be on one of the big "JV" guru's list and he doesn't provide any of the Can-Spam info that is and has been required since I believe 2003. Oh he gives a remove link in every email but it's always just for that particular email and it's things I've never ask about. There is no way to get off his 'master' list and no way to contact him either.

I guess that's how he makes so much money, he has a captive audience.

What would really be nice is if everyone played by the same rules and acted like adults. Online marketing could actually be taken seriuosly by all the people who have been either a victum of really shoddy marketing and or had their email addresses plowed under with a landslide of SPAM.

Well, that's enough for today, any comments?
