Whip Cantor (R-Va) presented his seven step commonsense job plan that creates an environment in which businesses large and small would feel comfortable hiring new workers. Ending the uncertainty of new Washington regulatory and tax legislation would go a long way towards fostering job growth.
The unemployment rate is climbing, the ranks of the uninsured are growing rapidly, and health care provider organizations are feeling the squeeze. What help can the federal government offer as part of the economic stimulus package? What will the increasing pressure mean for proposed health care reforms? And is there any silver lining in the clouds for the future of the US health care system? In a roundtable discussion, experts in health policy, economics, and health care delivery explore the current and likely effects of the recession on US health care and the prospects for systemic change.
It wasn’t that long ago that everyone in America believed that Japan would soon overtake the United States as the dominant economic force on the planet. When the Japanese stock market rallied to historic heights in late 1989 and Japanese investors even bought Rockefeller Center in New York, it all seemed like a done deal. But then…the Nikkei Index tanked, the nation’s economy collapsed, the government responded with an ever-changing mix of tax hike and tax cuts, stimulus spending on infrastructure, massive bailouts of businesses, and more. None of it worked and Japan entered what’s been called its “Lost Decade,” a seemingly endless period of economic stagnation. What are the lessons for the US from Japan’s experience? Reason Foundation policy analyst Anthony Randazzo is the co-author of the recent study “Avoiding an American Lost Decade: Lessons from Japan’s bubble and recession” and a July 2009 cover story for Reason magazine, “Turning Japanese: Japan’s post-bubble policies produced a ‘lost decade.’ So why is President Obama emulating them?” As Randazzo explains, both the causes of and official responses to Japan’s bubble and economic slump eerily anticipate exactly what the US government is doing. Worse still, the Obama administration and Congress seem dead-set against the sorts of policies—across-the-board taxes on personal and business income, reductions in long-term and unsustainable government debt, and allowing damaged firms to go bankrupt—that would help …

Show all your friends and family and ESPECIALLY PEOPLE IN POSITIONS OF POWER! TAKE ACTION. Most Americans HAVE NO CLUE that the Federal Reserve is a PRIVATE, FOR PROFIT CORPORATION! DON’T BELIEVE ME, LOOK IT UP FOR YOURSELF AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Americans have been scammed for TRILLIONS FROM THE FEDERAL RESERVE by charging us interest to print “money,” when our government USED TO PRINT MONEY FOR FREE WITHOUT CHARGING US INTEREST! JFK, Ron Paul, Woodrow Wilson, Milton Friedman, Ronald Reagan, and many others have spoken against the horrible Federal Reserve system we now have which is unnecessary because our government can print the money without paying interest to the private for profit Federal Reserve. While our government can print money for free, the people who own the private Federal Reserve have made trillions off of creating the US money. They loan money to the US government at interest, when our government could print it without them for free. JFK tried to get rid of the Federal Reserve by printing United States Notes because he realized that if private super rich bankers own the Federal Reserve and they loan money to the government, they essentially own the government. The Federal Reserve is the MAJOR reason why this …
* We made this video as the Dow plunged Friday, many expecting a global recession to take shape in the coming months. This is our video montage portraying the zeitgeist. *As part of our ongoing experiment, we tried out audio layering and effects with this video. Photos are courtesy of USA today (which is of course, a secondary source, the primary sources are either getty images or reuters photos), and reporter soundclips are courtesy of NBC Nightly News, except for of course, George Bush and the virtual voice sounds we created with the help of Mike. **With the housing morgage crisis, financial turmoil and the stock market on freefall, much to the likes of September 1929, a global recession and a second coming of the Great Depression and its followup, known to many as the war to end all wars, seems not too much unlikely. As citizens living through this troubling times, we decided to make a zeitgeist video, a much heavier note compared to the music videos we’ve been re-editing so far. Whether it gets positive reception or not, it’s pretty much up to whether people would search for videos about the Dow Jones Plunge on Youtube. ***Oh, and on a personal note, we’re not invested in any hedge fund whatsoever, so please don’t comment that we tried to make the stock plummet look too dramatic; and, we also would like to clarify that the Great Depression wasn’t the single contributing factor to WWII, but rather a part of a sequence of event that eventually led up to it, though …
