To have a fully robust economy we also have to make it easier for people to get jobs than it is now, when it seems as if you nearly need to be a candidate for sainthood in order to qualify. I would also like to see all states adopt META, the Model Employee Termination Act, which would make it easier for those without union representation to combat perceived injustice. It should be obvious by now that the switch from a production to a service economy has not worked all that well, and we need to revive our production in this country and end the bloodshed of outsourcing.
