Please take into consideration that im only in the 7th grade. (although I am in honors classes)
There are about 50million people over the age of 50 still working in America. We could give each of them $1million under a few conditions.
1. They must retire. (that opens up 50million jobs)
2. They must buy a new automobile. (that saves the automotive industry)
3. They must buy a new home. (Ohh. Look. Another problem solved)
I feel so smart. Please post any questions, comments, concerns, issues, ect. And also..... PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO THE PRESEDENT!!!!! rofl

Tell me, how many of these fifty million people have jobs that require post-secondary education?

I think the main problem is: where will you get all of this money from? And don't say China, because we already owe them so much.

You know what? Barack Obama is probably keeping himself awake with the worries of the economy, but he should realize that he's not the only one who can change things. There are tons of solutions people are coming up with, and I think when we come together with an answer all we have to do it finish our end of the bargain. The big people might give the rules, but the millions of little people have the power to change things, hopefully for the better.
And on that note, what is our president doing about this?

President alone can't do much - most of the work is probably being done in Congress. Not like he could have done much by now anyway because he hasn't even been in office for half a year, but it seems like all of his detractors expect him to be Oz or something.

What about encouraging the people of the economy to spend?
No matter how much money you give out, if the people don't spend it, it won't work.
It's why Bush's free money giveaway didn't work as well as he planned.
I think perhaps if the federal reserve created more money, we could jump ourselves out of the recession.
Much like with the Great Depression.
Sure, a lot of people will be mad for a while. In our case, probably the auto and housing industries.
But in the end, theoretically, it should go just as how it did before.
...Funny how no country realizes they're going down until 6 months into it.
[/economics class studies in high school]
But personally, I'm of the opinion that 'the people' have much more greater impact on the economy than any business or government.

So... You would tax $50,000,000,000,000 (50 trillion if my math is right) from the American people, and use that money to buy cars, houses, and food for people who are now prevented from working?
Think about it. You would be redistributing the wealth from those who pay taxes (and work) to those who (thanks to your mandatory retirement) no longer work and who pay much less taxes. Why?
Why dont you just let the people keep their money and spend it as they see fit?
That would leave us in the same situation, but at least things wouldnt be worse.

Really? Has history taught you nothing at all about the problems with communism?And how exactly do you propose to actually turn a country communist without dictatorships?
