How to Fix the Economy, Fast!(HUMOR, just so ya know)

[duckigrrl]

I receive emails all the time from my mother in law. This one was sent a few weeks ago and I just read it.  Boy would this be simple!  Too bad it'll never happen

Good Thinking...
  
  Subject:  HOW TO FIX THE ECONOMY  FAST
 
  
   
 This was an article from the St. Petersburg Times Newspaper on  Sunday.

The Business Section asked readers for ideas on "How Would  You Fix the Economy?"  I thought this was the BEST idea....I think this  guy nailed it!

  Dear Mr. President,
Patriotic  retirement:

There are about 40 million  people over 50 in the work force - Pay them $1 million  apiece severance with the following  stipulations:

1.They retire  immediately. Forty million job openings - Unemployment fixed.

2.They buy NEW  American cars. Forty million cars ordered - Auto Industry  fixed.

3. They either  buy a house or pay off their mortgage - Housing Crisis  fixed.

It can't get any easier than  that!

P.S. If more money is  needed, have all members in Congress and their constituents pay their  taxes…
