YES, WE CAN CREATE JOBS
Wondering whom in the news and communication new media is keeping up with the jobs created directly by President Barack Obama? I am too.
Does anyone know how many jobs have been created since President Obama was inaugurated?
There are many questions facing the global community and I thought that I might create a Blog about jobs for everyone but I realize that first I must do some research.
First, I thought I would create a period that had to do with the new economy and the new leadership.
Because I live in the United States of America, I thought it might be fun to incorporate the educational system of teachers and educators. Maybe make a fun project for schools.
Maybe since we were all excited around the world to see Barack Obama take office because of the YES WE CAN slogan for his Democratic ticket, maybe we should now do some follow up. I know President Obama seems scattered and multi-tasking but that is the job. After all, he is the Commander of the most powerful country in the world.
I have watched in anticipation as I have waited to see some results. I have seen some Executive Orders signed and seen President Obama, first lady Michelle Obama and approximately 500 or so other members of his staff fly to Europe for the G20 Summit.
What came from that looked like it had already been planned and rehearsed. That meeting appeared to me like a photo op and nice arrangement for publicity. Maybe I am naïve about what the G20 was really prepared to do at that meeting. After all, they are just meeting and flexing their countries desires to compete in the future of the global economy.
I was hoping to see something new come from the new administration and a complete restructuring of the completely global economy.
First, I suppose we have to decide which countries will be controlling what on their continents. It appears that China, Korea, and Russia may be working toward an alliance.
Then we have the United States, Canada, The United Kingdom, and now it appears Mexico. Since we are leaning toward control by logistics and county, there may be more of a cultural moral and ethical template being created globally but everyone must still act locally.
Speaking of locally, it appears that Texas being controlled by the Republicans at this time with a Republican Governor may want to not count on the federal system for their roads and bridges and anything else for that matter. It appears that they along with several other states are not fond of taxation without representation. There may be something to the tea Party that was held at the Alamo in San Antonio on March 15, 2009.
It appears that we need to decide on some common ground in America and in Canada and Mexico first before we begin knocking on other countries doors.
There seems to be some people who want to share in our American dream. This is fine with me but there be some areas of the United States that will benefit from others making use of the land that we do not presently occupy.
There is plenty of land in the Midwest that could be used from Mexico up to Canada by creating some new corridors. There is a need to run some good roads from El Paso straight up north to Mexico. Maybe this would be a good way to create some jobs for everyone out in the middle of the United States. Someone needs to develop that part of the country. We have the largest cities on this continent on all the coasts.
We have New York down to Miami on the East coast. We have New Orleans and Houston on the Southern coast. We have San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and Portland on the west coast. Then we have Atlanta, St. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago, Minneapolis/St. Paul and the rest well, they really are the rest as the population and cities go.
We need to concentrate on what we can do with our country and the people that rely on this country for a living wage. It appears that the Midwest is our Farmland. We have cattle farms, and farmers growing crops in the middle of the United States. W expect the new President to be creative and to get some of our top economists and entrepreneurs together with city planners and to outfit the major portion of our country that is not developed into some growing useful places for all the expanding population?
Just an idea. We are going to be sharing some military advancement in defense no matter what. Our country has always depended on war and government contracts to see us through hard times. I figure that is why we stay in Afghanistan, Israel, Korea, Europe, and now it appears we are going to fight the war on drugs coming from South America up through Mexico. Our country needs to fight the war on drugs and terror and these are the two main threats not just in our country but also in most all countries.
Our roads and Interstates are outdated. Our energy grids and power stations are outdated. Our sewer and water stations need updated. We are going to be putting some engineers to work.
Then, we have the earth and space friendly environment to contend with while we gear up for the population explosion while all the while trying to race to the moon to mine minerals that can assist us in the future.
Technology is advancing so fast that the electronic stores can hardly keep up with the new gadgets.
The small businesses I talk too on a regular basis are trying to update their equipment to accept Debit cards and Visas as the plastic electronic monetary funds exchange. I spoke to our water company about taking my debit card and they said, “We have the equipment in but we don’t know how to use it yet.”
Therefore, there are smaller towns around that are doing what they can to upgrade to the new way of doing business electronically and on the internet. One would think that with us growing up with the game Monopoly that we would all know how to play big business.
The water and electric companies were never paying big dividends but they were needed and reliable. Now, it appears even these are outdated in the United States.
Let us face it. We have outgrown our present economy and now have to figure out how to create more jobs while we are rebuilding our country in many ways.
It is our fearless leader President Barak Obama that we are counting on to lead us through these hard times. We all must hope and have faith in the President and our Executive Branch of our government.
There are plenty of leaders but from what I can tell, there are too many Chiefs and not enough Indians. I wonder how many pages of the budget have actually been skeletonized. I thought Pres. Obama was about creating jobs and saving America’s dream for the future.
Did anyone else believe as I did? I think so. I believe that there are people all over the world waiting to see some results and some thinning out of bureaucratic red tape in the system.
I may not have run a country but the basics of how to build a country and what it needs cannot be that hard when we can print our own money at the drop of a hat.
Why not forget the old way of doing things and create a completely new system that works? We have all these genius entrepreneurs in America that seem to be competing with those in China, Russia, Japan, and The European Union. Maybe President Barack Obama can ask those in space and future technological advancements to work with his creators and planners for the United States of America. Surely he doesn’t think he can do this with only an attorneys back ground. Attorneys are great but, for running a country as big as ours, I believe he needs a larger brainstorming group he can trust to assist now.
What I have heard tell from Supreme Court Judge Clarence Thomas is that our Constitution is worth saving. So is that something we can all agree upon and work from there. We need a starting point and I believe accepting the Constitution and Declaration of Independence should be the place we all agree to start.
Then we go from there. Obama like Lincoln may have a civil war on his hands if he is not staying on top of all the briefings that he should be getting daily from his top advisers.
I for one, just hope that there will be something that we can all sink our teeth into for seeing the transparency in the system that is being used by our elected leaders in Washington. It is time for the Census to be taken in America once again. How many new jobs will be created for the unemployed?
