Help for the economy

Hi
In my writing about the conservative movement there must be a mention of the economy. We need a conservative approach to "fixing" the economy of our nation. What this fixing should be is an almost classic " laissez-faire " policy. Before you start to turn off let me explain. Under laissez-faire the government does not interfere with commerce, but we know that is neither desirable nor practicable. What is needed is a minimal interference. Some things must be done by government, imagine if we tried to hire an army without the government doing it. What I propose is the minimal interference with normal trade. Look at the record, take the executive department, congress, republican and democratic parties. Would you trust any of them with your household budget? I know I wouldn't. Big government forces this upon us, isn't it ironic, we make the money but they want to tell us how to spend it, we have the children but they want to tell us how to raise them. This is what I call nerve. Where do these people get this idea that they know better than we do. I say if they want to spend, get a real job and spend your own money, not ours. Have kids and raise them the way you want. Here is the irony ( I know maybe redundant but this merits repeating ) these are the same people who cannot run their own cafeterias. The old saying, " Physician, heal thyself", applies. Congress and the executive department has gotten to the point that they think they know the answers, well, I got news for them. Getting elected doesn't give them some magic elixir that solves problems. We all know what get problems solved, American ingenuity and sweat. Let's unleash this energy, rid the people of the albatross from around our necks, let us solve our own problems.

We see the bailout of the banking system and Wall Street, a problem caused by government trying to dictate our lives, and it serves as an example of what meddling can cause in our economy. The taxpayer foots the bill. What else is new. Now the liberal congress is talking of bailing out the auto industry. Speaker Pelosi is saying that it is to protect jobs. It most certainly is not, it is to protect a group that donate to liberal politicians, the autoworkers union bosses. Why didn't Mrs Pelosi say anything when the unions and the auto makers negotiated contracts that were totally unreasonable? Now, the shoe is on the other foot, - bad management, unwarranted labor contracts and just plain greed have made the auto makers noncompetitive, now we should bail them out. Get real. The conservative movement should strongly oppose this bailout. We need to send a message, no bailouts.

As I said in my prior blog, the fair tax would eliminate this type of government give away of our hard earned tax dollars. We need change, real change. A grass roots ground swell of conservatives is what can cure this ailment. Let's get going.

I'll keep up with my blogs so stay tuned. Remember if you like what I say, tell your friends and neighbors, but if you don't like it, please tell me.

Please pray for our service people.
GOD Bless
