Economics - November 2006

With all of the recent troubles in Iraq, etc. I've heard alot of talk that the US is in real trouble. I do note though that they seem to still be in economic control of world affairs. Do you think that the US is in a REAL decline or are people confusing current events with the long term outlook for the US economic dominance???

Corporations pay 13% of taxes. Americans pay the other 87%.
Is there something wrong when Exxon-Mobil is reporting quarter after quarter of record profits while we pay more for gasoline than ever in the history of our country? Should IBM be laying-off Americans while hiring overseas workers? Do CEO's deserve to make millions each year when American wages are either stagnant or falling? Being competative is fine. Searching the globe for the cheapest labor while laying-off Americans in search of more profit is immoral. That's my opinion.

Amerika can help poor countries by jusy buying up the agriculture products,then sell it elsewhere.By buying up products they will work hard and prosper,just like China experienced now.Just by giving them money will not solved problems,it is just like giving money to a spoiled brat...buying up produce will move their economy dynamicaly and the will buy from U.S too...when everyone has work to do ,there will less conflict...this may sound naive...but think about it..you buy from them,the have the money,and the will buy from you...thats economy dynamic..santion the economy to try to overturn their regime will fail,just like N.Korea...they will try to defence themselves paranoidically,and build weapon by selling their products cheaply to their neighbor,become poorer ..China communism suddenly found monetary delight and enjoyment,and boy ,they now try hard to sell just anything you could want for your monies,and the not try to invade your country...block their economy...hell break lose!

Shouldn't that mean that a MECHANIC would be CHEAPER than seeing a doctor, since the DEMAND of the service is HIGHER, and there are a LOT more people doing MECHANIC work, than Doctoring?
