Economic stimulus is not created or maintained by a government check. First the government has to borrow the money with interest from the private organization known as the Federal Reserve. This small temporary blip in a individuals bank account will not accomplish it's stated purpose. This so called plan is nothing more than a insult to the public intelligence and is really nothing more than a bribe or pay off for malfeasance on the part of our public officials and business leaders.
To be brief I will generalize. Officials tell us that our economy is based and supported by continued spending buy the masses. As inflation cheapens or lessen the value of each dollar spending by individuals is diverted to only those things that are a necessity. Luxury means different things depended on a persons life style. Maybe instead of going to dinner and a movie some will stay home and cook and rent a movie. To some it may mean buying a less expensive car, while others will buy raw tobacco and roll their own cigarettes. It really is such a personal issue, but to stay general a one time check that is borrowed money won't fix anything, it will in fact just make things worse.
The only thing that will turn the economy around is ethical business and government policies. Cutting expenses by laying off employees to increase profits will not stimulate the economy for anyone else except those who already have more money than they could ever spend. If business really wanted to help they would reduce profits and increase wages. wage increases will be the only thing that actually do any good, they will be the last thing to change in a greed based economy. There are all types of different economies within industry. I just want to mention briefly a few of them
The paper industries. Not the actual paper and timber industries but business that has greatly benefitted from advancements in technology, insurance, banking,stocks, lawyers and any others you might think of. These industries used to be heavy in paper work which all required massive amounts of personnel and time. As technology improved their expenses dropped and their efficiency increased. Why have their costs to customers gone up? Next I want to look at what I'll call energy dependent industries. That could include just about every other business, manufacturing, service, and to some extent the same businesses in the paper industries, but to a much lesser degree. We can easily understand how the cost of energy effects all business and needs to be considered we establishing the cost or price charged to the customer, Truckers, cab drivers, and any product or service that requires delivery, airlines ect.ect. You get my point. Advancements in technology have helped others more than others. Generally those who make the rules, and get paid in direct relation or percentages of profits are making sure they get even more. Lastly let's look at energy production, these business wield great power over all of us, and in my opinion have manipulated the laws for their benefit in ways that are to complicated to get into here, it's just obvious that the influence has been deep and wide. The profits they make are grotesque. Their reasoning weak, their methods criminal. Just for a example I'll just use made up figures to keep it simple. I'll also state opinion, not proven by fact. They know the are selling a need not a want, they know it's running out (oil), they know there are alternatives and have worked to suppress them until it they will be the only ones to be able to produce and control oils replacement. Okay, back to price, let's say I'm making ten million a day at a price of one hundred dollars a barrel, I want to make more, all I have to do is start a rumor or speed a small boat in the area of a ship, or maybe even launch a missile or flare near a ship or pipeline and the price goes up two maybe three dollars per barrel. Heck, if I was in a position and character I'd do that to. Remember you're reading the blog of somebody that doesn't trust the government at all, somebody who believes in multigenerational and international conspiracies. All of which is necessary to bring the antichrist to power. Just my opinion, could be wrong.
He who controls the gold makes the rules. Gold was one of the gifts the wise men brought Jesus, and it shows more of what men were willing to give, than what it it means to God, yes He does like it, but ,He uses it to pave the streets in heaven, should we give it anymore value than we give asphalt or concrete. Character is the sole possession that God gave to us and he his more concerned about what we do with it than what we do with Gold. The people in charge or in position to make or chance prices and use that power to be to their benefit only and to burden others will be surprised to find out that in the eyes of God they have been hoarding for their own benefit asphalt and the power that other men have bestowed them, they abused. Henry Ford not only designed his Model T to run on hemp oil but he also wanted to pay his employees enough to be able to afford it. Realizing that we all prosper when we don't horde the profits for ourselves.
