Government Spending

I received this in my e-mail today and think it is awesome! So decided to share it with you all. I was going to try to stick to just three posts today, but decided I wanted to get this one out here. I'm thinking this would be awesome for all of us to sign in agreement and send it to our congress, senate, etc. to get the point across that we are tired of government spending. So here is the note.

This is from an article in the St. Petersburg Times Newspaper on Sunday.
The Business Section asked readers for ideas on "How Would You Fix the Economy?"
I think this guy nailed it!

Dear Mr. President:
Please find below my suggestion for fixing America 's economy.

Instead of giving billions of dollars to companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan.
You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan:

There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

1) They MUST retire. Forty million job openings - Unemployment fixed.
2) They MUST buy a new American CAR. Forty million cars ordered - Auto Industry fixed.
3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage - Housing Crisis fixed.
It can't get any easier than that!
If more money is needed, have all members of Congress and their constituents pay their taxes...

So if you think this is a good idea, pass it on to others. Otherwise just ignore it. God Bless!
