Best idea I’ve heard about this crisis, bar none…
…is that the government needs to spend our way through it, creating more American jobs as it invests—not in moar woar!* or bad debt—but in infrastructure, public transit, education, health care and alternative energy.
(*An administration with a modicum of diplomacy skills could actually use diplomacy as a first resort and troops as a last, thereby saving us a great expense in not only dollars but lives. Lives. Wouldn’t that be nifty?)
READ MOAR on government spending our way out of this—and don’t miss the responses. There’s some good discussion going in the “Read all letters” link at the end of the article.
