One of the simple things that will revitalize and help stabilize our economy is the availability of jobs that pay at least a sufficient amount to live comfortably, raise a family and pay for necessities with enough left over to save and splurge a little.
Those of you over the age of, and perhaps as young as 30, remember a different economic climate long ago and watched as all our lives began to change faster with even bigger challenges due to unemployment and higher prices. Unemployment, underemployment and financial problems have caused such tremendous chaos that even those who are still able to pay their way feel the ground shaking beneath them as well.
My thoughts on the changes, as I have watched and fretted over it for quite a few years, is about how many American jobs have been lost due to outsourcing work and manufacturing to other countries where labor costs (and their cost of living) is far less. Companies that outsource have enjoyed greater profits, but the general public is not reaping the benefits, and changes need made.
It is way past time to get off this roller coaster ride and bring American jobs and efficient manufacturing back home here where it will benefit our economy and our lives. This issue has had a domino effect, jobs lost, tax base lost, everyone looking for government aid, and our government is borrowing money. Our economy needs reformed from within.
Contact your congress critters and discuss your concerns. If you are not signed up to vote, do so now, and arm yourself with full knowledge of the issues at stake -- from many sources, read independent conservative bloggers as well to get a more balanced view, the general news will not tell you everything you need to know to make informed decisions.
