Job Creation

Recent economic developments and Mr.  Obama’s address to Congress Wednesday have motivated me to do something with this web site which I abandoned for some time because I have been quite busy, to understate it, working on “real job creation.”

To get going I shall start with some general comments as per title of this post and then flesh these comments out ongoing in the coming days and weeks.

The Good:  Action is needed and it is needed quickly.  Some positive action is better than no action and Mr. Obama’s jobs plan pays for needed jobs.  It will have positive effects and, if executed well, will not be a significant waste of money.

The Bad:  The jobs plan extends the general ignorance of policy makers and politicians about the ways real job creation actually happens, as outlined on this web site.  The jobs plan does not directly address job creation in the fastest, most efficient way.

The Ugly:  Because the jobs plan does not go far enough in dealing directly and fundamentally with issues of commerce and prosperity, the dangers that exist underneath the U.S. and world’s economies will persist and likely explode sooner than anybody wants.

Something must be done about the Ugly and it must be done now, to repeat Mr. Obama’s repeated calls for action.

Senate Democrats today addressed Republicans’ plan to introduce an amendment repealing health care reform to the FAA Reauthorization bill. “It’s beyond me why Republicans are obsessed with fighting past battles when Americans say they want Congress focused on creating jobs,” said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. “Instead they are focused on protecting big insurance companies — and the result of that dangerous plan would be an increased deficit, higher taxes for small businesses and increased prescription drug prices for millions of seniors.”

Please READ: Embarking into Nuclear energy could immediatley create 60 to 100 thousand jobs predominantly in our decimated construction sector. By 2014 there will be a new nuclear generation plant firing up every six days somewhere in the world! The spin offs would also be quite significant in job creation. We could reduce costs to consumers by 50%, provide free electricity to all government facilities, reduce the 6 Billion euros going out of the country for energy by 4 Billion keeping that money inside our needy economy. As it is carbon free, it would contribute to conserving our earth, and reduce or eliminate the costs of Carbon Credits.These pluses would strongly contribute to reducing our overall national debt, act as added incentive to outside companies, and make life quality far more liveable for the people of Ireland. There would be massive long term benefits for many generations and we could not be held hostage to power and heat, basic necessities.
