Solutions

*This was an article ( so I'm told ) from the St.. Petersburg Times newspaper on Sunday. The Business Section asked readers for their ideas on "How Would You Fix the Economy?" I think this reader nailed
it!

Dear Mr. President,
Patriotic Retirement: There's about 40 million people over 50 in
the work force. Pay them $1 million dollars apiece Severance Pay
with these stipulations. *
* 1) They leave their jobs. Forty million job openings -
Unemployment fixed.
2) They buy NEW American cars. Forty million cars ordered - Auto
Industry fixed.
3) They either buy a house or pay off their mortgage - Housing
Crisis fixed.
DONE! Economy fixed.
