Jim, what this economy needs first and foremost is more

employer-employee security. Markets, Main St. everyone loathes uncertainty. The debt loads are impossible, no economic policy to speak of in sight, the advisers are from Enron, etc.

So, fire W, put the Military in charge for a couple years.

Cut wages 10-20%, install flat 10-15% income tax, confiscate assets of the rich, it was mostly amassed through criminal legislation anyway. Use that to pay down household and business debt. Even if you impound 80% of Bill Gates' wealth he'll have friggin 10 billion bucks left. Hello? How much does a guy need? He ain't taking it with him.

Washington has failed regally, fire most of that, throw the savings at household debt. And give small business extra tax breaks. Devalue the greenback 25%.

Americans households must keep their houses and jobs. It will require radical measures. And leadership. W just does not cut it.
