Depression
Finally we all know America is in a depression. So I came up with some ways to jump-start the American economy. Which do you think will work the best?
A) Lower interest rates while simultaneously cutting taxes.
B) Sell Nebraska and Iowa to Russia.
C) Start an enormous British pound counterfeit and laundering facility in a secret location in the middle of the country.
D) Sell all of our cats to china.
Or E) Buy Canada on an illegal bid on eBay and sell it to New Zealand at “half-price.”
If you think none of these will work, please recommend your own economic jump-start method. Thank you for your time and efforts. God Speed.

I always found that selling clothes for cash was nice boost to the wallet. What if all the booty in all the Lost & Founds in the country were sold to Buffalo Exchange?

Well, you could do A but would the vast population want to?, B why not let Russia decide which states he wants I mean c’mon we’re not gonna be spoiling them are we?, C counterfeiting pounds? counterfeit too much and they will be useless why not just counterfeit our own dollars? Oh wait … D we could sell all of the cats to China but wont happen without the animal activists going crazy about it, E we can’t do that to Canada, he’s always been there for us, besides, think of the grizzly bears! How would they feel about all of this?
I don’t want to sound mean or anything leaving this comment on your blog entry, but what if America stopped depending on other countries to produce goods we could get cheap at let’s say wal mart or some other place and make it here instead? Didn’t America once make everything before they sent it to China to be made cheaper? You know, like it was a couple of years ago? Or how about India? I mean, sure we like buying things for cheap but wouldn’t we prefer to pay say oh I don’t know like a dollar or two more on let’s say a summer blouse or a tricycle you can assemble at home?
It’s not gonna be a quick fix, it’s not going to happen over night like most people expect it to be. God I’m gonna get a bunch of ‘I like buying things for cheap and helping third world countries and I am so offended by you comment’ e-mails like I always do every time I do this. sigh.
I’m just saying.
