Now that the US has approximately half of its population
without jobs, (children, students, retirees, disabled and unemployed) it might
be time to change our economy’s focus from jobs to incomes. The focus on jobs gives discretion for
spending two trillion of our aid tax dollars to business owners and executives under
the “trickle down” theory. By spending
only one trillion dollars we could eliminate hunger by giving each resident
with a Social Security number a debit card for $300 a month. It could be spent only on food produced in
the United States, and on one day each month it would be brought back to the
$300 amount. If it wasn’t spent it couldn’t
be accumulated. This would eliminate
hunger, free up rent and mortgage money, benefit our farmers, and bubble up to
our business owners.
