Observation has proven to be of the most value, throughout history great discoveries have occurred.
WHAT DOES THE USA PRODUCE? Home remodeling - 80 to 95 % USA made. Drywall, Studs, Insulation. here is a top ten list of exports # 3 Autos, food, etc.
Economy and the lack of stimulus: An explanation. ROADS, BRIDGES, INFRASTRUCTURE why don't they build the cost of maintenance into the price to use? In gas, fuel taxes, for roads, bridges. The cost of sewage and water for those who use it.
It may retain jobs but no real effect in job growth
There are two people, A and B. A has money, B is unemployed. The Government taxes A to give a job to B. ( 100 $ tax -> 100$ pay) A net wash of dollars. no multiplying effect.
Now the government says to A: buy plant and equipment, write it off . A now takes the reserve cash, buys plant and equipment, lower cost to produce, lower price, more sales and more B type people get employed.
Where did the money go? look at Recovery.gov and see. In maryland Spent so far 1.3 billion 8k in jobs 159K per job. ( I figure 50/50 split of that for salary/ben and materials)
leaves about 3.7 billion left to spend , but when and on what. ?
My zip code 21117 - 2007 IRS 26k returns filed. Stimulus created 1 One Job and cost 100k (50 k emp / 50 k mat)
Is this the root cause of entitlement failure?
Did you know; The USA has less hospital rooms per person and less doctors per person than the rest of the Civilized world
1973 US produced 11 million barrels a day, by 2006 only 5.5 million, we just starting adding production USA produces the most Nuclear power, wind power, & third in Solar How is Drywall and Coal related?
In most cases residential or business can buy power from wind, biomass, hydro, solar. Ask your power company.
Local Snow resorts in PA buy wind power from local farms. They upgrade lighting, and upgrade snow making equipment to use less energy. War, Revolution, Rebellion "Forms of government come and go, So do global powers, but people are more like roaches, can't seem to get rid of them"
Seems nobody likes war, but humans sure do leave a long history of the opposite List of revolutions and rebellions
