Hello ladies and gentlemen and thank you for tuning in. Today I am going to explain to you how to fix the economy immediately or at least by your next paycheck. 

It is simple, but first let me throw a couple bits of data at ya…DUCK, here they come.

Well first good news to you here in America, your Productivity is higher than ever. You are proving that “Lazy American” myth is nothing more than hype from the illegal immigration lobby. Productivity has done nothing but gone up since 1995 according to the Economic Policy Institute. Well, that’s about it for the good news, if you count that you are working harder than ever as good news.

Just from 2000-2005 your work load went up 16.6%. Good going! Oh, and that was about as much recognition as your gonna get. Because in that same time your wages slipped 2.9%. Sorry. But don’t worry; CEO wages went up 186% and Corporate profits, whew, amazing the monies generated just quarterly by most U.S. corporations. GO TEAM!!

While wages are stagnant, while you are living off Food Stamps and other aid just too put food on the table and gas in the car to go to work that pays nowhere near a living wage. (I have asked this before but never get an answer; Wouldn’t you be embarrassed as a human, as an American, to know that you are making an insane amount of money, yet your employees are making poverty level wages and need Federal aid to get by? Forget the profit for a moment and think about the moral implications and your soul if you are in that position. P.S. What good did all that greed do Ken Lay?)

Food has gone up 5.8% in just the last year, and we, yes America, we have set a new record, one that we should all be so proud of; 28 million people will be using Food Stamps by this month as projected. All Food Stamps are is subsidized wages from the government for companies to greedy to pay their employees a real wage.

Wages for high school AND college grads have pretty much flat lined since 2001. I know from experience that no matter how much skill you have, no matter age and time in the work force, change jobs and you are making the “starting wage” at the new job, the same wage to that just out of high school person. Is that a shame or what? What happened to paying on skills and performance? What insane Human Resources Executive thought up the insulting $0.25 an hour annual raise? That is only $2.00 a day.

So, what is my fix for the economy? Well simple, it is not government intervention; it is not tax cuts to Corporate America or investigations of the oil execs. What we have is simply that wages have not gone up, inflation and cost of living has exceeded what people have to spend, we cannot buy more, and therefore our wallets have been out paced. If I can figure this out why can’t those experts always on CNN and FOX news?

America’s corporations need to begin thinking about the country, the people and not the profits. If you take a look at the quarterly profits of big companies you can see very plainly that giving a real raise to their employees will not truly hurt. How many millions and in some cases billions in profit do you really need? What needs to happen is a substantial raise in pay across the lower and middle class. People making money can pay their mortgages. People with enough money are spending it on goods and services and not just, rent, food, gas, and utilities. People with enough money aren’t living off credit cards and then defaulting into bankruptcy. When Americans have money, by God we spend it.  So, give us some money, we sure as hell are earning it.

It is up to those hording the dough for all these record breaking profit quarters to break away, crying I am sure, of some of the loot. But the security, health, and prosperity of the Nation is on them, they need to realize this and take the correct, moral and Patriotic action.

See, told ya it would be simple thing to fix the economy. Now we have to wait to see who jumps first.

I have to say after listening, reading, rereading, I cannot believe at all that the things being said - are really being said about the people of America, by the people that have set themselves as our betters.

It looks as though no one in politics, the media or Corporate America has any real respect or understanding of who America is, or specifically, who we, the residents of this Nation are. The strings of babble that these morons are putting together are just unbearable in what they have to say about Americans.

Recently there was an episode of The View with guest Whoppi Goldberg. No, for the love of God, no, I do not watch it; I got the line via Drudge. The conversation was the usual nonsense but set aside all the bullcrap it came down to that they were discussing anti-elite sentiment. But they had no idea what elitism even is. 

Joan called Americans anti-intellectuals. Being smart does not elitist make. She also goes on to call some people that eat very little and pray a lot as being weird.

It is stunning, utterly and absolutely that these people are sitting around discussing such concepts and yet have no idea of what they are even talking about. It sounds as if they are making it up as they go, yet, some fool gave them a TV show and so many watch it and believe the ignorance, no I take that back, stupidity that comes from The View.

However it is not just these nutcase bubble dwellers that have their heads stuck so far up in the rear, it is pretty much most of the DC Gang, Hollywood, and the guys that hold the purse strings, Corporate America that finds us down here in the working classes so intolerable. 

So let me define ELITIST to you people and what it means to us. First, it is not about how much money a person has, power, kind of car or how big your house is. None of that matters to us. It is not about how high your IQ is or what college you went to that makes you an elitist either.

An ELITIST is a person that has all those things and then thinks those possessions somehow makes him/her better than those of us that don’t. An ELITIST is a snob on steroids. If you think that you are better, that we should listen to you just because and/or you believe that you are better qualified to run our lives than we are; well, that makes you an ELITIST. An elitist is that guy in the Mercedes running down the highway jumping lane to lane without a turn signal because evidently where he needs to get to is more important than your safety. An Elitist is that person who thinks they should go to the front of the line instead of having to wait like everyone else. An ELITIST is that person that looks down on people with faith as ignorant fools. An ELITIST is the one that says we should not have guns, with the exception of the body guards for the ELITE. As if the life of someone on TV or in politics is more important that the life of a person working a real job.

Let me tell you, you know the people that truly win, have charisma, are respected and people turn to for true LEADERSHIP? It is the one that treats all with respect. It is the person that can actually set an example and not just bark orders, that one is the LEADER we will turn to, not the ELITIST. An ELITIST will abandon us at the first sign of trouble like the rats they truly are.  A LEADER will stick with us till the end as the first to go and the last to leave. You know what we call a person that can have all or just some of those attributes? We call them CLASSY. That type of personality seems to have become extinct in the upper echelons of this country.

Those are the people we want to LEAD us, not someone that only remembers us during an election cycle. We want someone that will LISTEN to what we have to say and actually consider our words, as opposed to someone that is just nodding and waiting for us to stop talking so they can rattle off the latest catch-phrase or go off on a rant about some unrelated topic without ever answering our question to begin with. A question that matters to us, yet is discarded by the ELITE.

I have to tell you, all you people that go around over looking us regular Americans need to take a deep hard look in the mirror. You are the people running this country with all these self important attitudes and with the belief that you are better than the rest of us. Well take a look in that mirror, and then go take a look out a window and take a long look at what your greed is doing to America because of the lack of concern for the citizens that make up this nation. Take a look at the people that do what we have to do to make it and ultimately without us, there would be no reason at all for you to exist.

You guys and all ELITIST leading us aren’t really doing the country so well. For a group of people that do nothing but get groomed for the roles, they are truly doing a horrible job. What is the motivation if leading isn’t really the goal, and you have no respect for the people you want to lead?

Things are taking a bad turn and yet we hear nary a peep from the people running the show on how to get things back on track. Where are they after months of saying everything is ok?

Step aside and let us, the regular Americans, take it from here, whenever times go south it is us that carry the burden and pull America out. Not the fools that put greed ahead of the Nation.

An ELITIST will be the one to take the credit even though they spent the hard times in Europe on vacation.
