economy

Donald Trump is not usually a credible source for economic concerns but he can give credible comments when considering reentry into the political arena.He did that on 80811.He suggested
a tariff on Chinese imports(25%)which does warrant consideration.He also said that oil subsidies
should be eliminated.He also said that Standard & Poor's downgrade should have been more severely challengedHe said that Medicare was a good program.These are all credible commennts which will probably be revised if he does
become a candidate,but are accurate for now.

Finally ,loss of government jobs has been mentioned.Government cuts will and has increased
loss of public sector jobs.The ultra rich must be taxed to temper that loss.We need money for the middle class and it has to come from somewhere.Perhaps tax cuts to the middle class would help
(with the exception of FICA which will affect SS extensively).Without loss of public sector jobs,we would have gained 373,000 jobs in the last two months which would have been considered to have been a drastic improvement.

We should reconsider Martin Sabo's proposal to cut corporate and Big Business CEO's salaries.
Business &corporate profits increasing administrative earnings must be stopped.

Tax reform is essential.Campaign reform is essential.We can't have rich people governing us and being elected only because they have more money.Perseverance on regulations is essential.We do need decrease in some areas,but mostly more in financial and business areas.Subsidies are still necessary in beginning expansion,but more important are decreases and elimination in
businesses that no longer should have subsidies:oil,agriculture,ethanol,etc.

Sincerity at the top is also essential.Catering to the ultra-rich has to stop.When a tax increase is not a tax increase,address it as such.Don't let propaganda become part of negotiations.Call bullshit,bullshit.Be honest with the people.Csll a spade,a spade.Don't let inexperts pass as experts.Don't let the CPI be manipulated.Don't let lies about healthcare and social security
go unopposed.Tell the truth!

We've let bullshit prevail for mtoo long.Let's concentrate on truth and honesty.Eliminate the bullshit!
