How to Create Permanent Jobs
Posted by Randy | October 27, 2010

The Federal Reserve recently reported in its "beige book" survey of economic conditions that the "economy is still too weak to add to permanent jobs."

As we've clearly seen over the past few years, bailout and stimulus spending will not lead to economic recovery. To create permanent jobs for Americans, we need a policy change in Washington that will empower small businesses, not the government, to lead us to economic recovery.

If you haven't already, take a look at my list of Job Killing Principles vs. Job Creating Principles for a list of my ideas on economic recovery.

    Mr. Forbes, America needs to go to the FAIR TAX system to really get our economy growing and pay off our debt. IT JUST MAKES SENSE. Corporations and businesses can produce products and services at a lower cost which would bring down the prices in general on the things the consumers need most. Society would benefit though a better standard of life. Let's face it, those who are more fortunate financially will still end up paying the most tax...but EVERYONE will pay. Including the illegal immigrants who are taking from our system without ever contibuting to it, and those "citizens" that do not report any or all of their income. This would also allow our government to actually perform as it was intended without as much influence from lobbists, because its FAIR. You have stated YOU support a FAIR TAX system...I'd like to see you do more than support it. I'd like to see you champion it. Very Respectfully, Marie Faulkner US Navy, Retired

    Congratulations on your reelection! Being in the Second District, I, unfortunately could not vote for you, but you probably didn't need my vote anyway. With the changes in Congress brought on by the election, we are looking for positive actions, and programs, and I am sure you will be in the forefront in this regard. With the help of your other Virginia Republicans, I am confident that you will represent your district and the Commonwealth with principle, honor, and leadership and make a strong contribution to changing the direction of the Congress and the policies forced into place by the current Administration. Thank you for your service and your hard work. Regards, Nat Pace

    If only more and more leaders would stand up like you Mr. Forbes and finally say enough is enough, and end the madness. When will enough officials in Congress care to make a difference. Take control of your own future http://www.best-make-money-online.com
