Getting away from family and friends here for a little bit, but I found this article very interesting and amusing. How Simple!
From the St. Petersburg Times, business section, the question was asked, "How would you fix the economy?" One man's answer:
Patriotic Retirement
There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them $1 million each severance pay with stipulations:
1, They leave their jobs. 40 million job openings. Unemployment fixed.
2.They buy NEW American cars. 40 million new cars ordered. Auto industry fixed.
3. They either buy a new home or pay off their existing mortgage. Housing crisis fixed.
Think congress would go for this? Me either.
Quote for today: "Blessed are the cracked, for it is they who let in the light."
