Inflation & the Economy
As the government continues to print more money - inflation will be going up and your buying power will decrease. Cost of goods will increase to new highs - look at gas, food, utility rates already. Where will it end?
What I see as a solution is we need a business oriented person to take control of the country. Instead of thinking only about increasing taxes to make up for all the budget shortfalls a business oriented person would also look at decreasing expenses. A cut in the politicians pay by about 75% would weed out those who are in office for the money & those in office to represent the people.
What are your ideas as to how the economy can be "fixed"??
