The economy

Many people in the government have been telling us the economy is getting better. From the perspective of someone who is really trying to hold down a job I would have to say that the experts in Washington do not have a clue about the real America which the rest of us live in. The real America sees failed businesses getting free money in order to lay off the people who actually do the work, which, at one time was the way wealth was created in this country. In today's world it is merely printed in hopes that working people will one day make the money real. I recommend a return to the gold standard. This may limit the amount of cash available in the world but the cash would be real. I also recommend that all government officials who seem to spend their lives living in a bubble go out and get a real job which requires that person produce something tangible before they are allowed to sit in some office and tell the rest of us they know how we feel. the reality is that Gietner, Obama, or any one else up there Republican or Democrat have know more idea of reality than an untreated person with multiple personality disorder. This country should not be based on usury but on what we can produce to help our fellow man. Credit produces debt, farmers produce food, which would you suppose is the most important to the average American right now. Food is tangible and provides for specific needs for and individual. Debt only services itself, it feeds upon itself, It starves everything else in order to feed itself. It must end.
