Come on yall there has never been a large group of students studying to Become economist and that subject is a lot like the doctor’s requirement To learn say organic chemistry. Its amazing how we fool our selves about our problems. People may not Understand excessive credit or they may be lost to the idea of building Wealth through saving and investments and now that the roof has caved in Everyone appear bewildered. The economic restructuring of America is the biggest since the expansion Of the railroads westward and the days of the great wildcat railroads Where the coolies and recent freed black men were used on railroad gangs and their labor Was exploited but it was a period of dynamic change and the people Knew hard work and still had some structure in their family while the Company structures were taking hold and the teapot type scandals ran rampant We were subjected to the idea that we could reach 20 miles to either side Of the railroad tracks an the became the wage slaves of the emerging Period of industrialization. The steel and oil enterprise rose and work Was abundant and men could still dream of an America with wide spaces Because many medium size independent farms still had good size populations To day the mega-global companies are monopolies and the economist realize That this concentration of capital has an adverse effect on the worker’s Ability to create a base of wealth. The mass of workers are negatively Effected because the company executive control politics and the flow Of wealth inside and outside the country. These ty---coons with their Golden parachutes are the first to argue both sides of the issue They rob the people with high prices and keep the mass of wage Slaves living near or below the poverty level and use all types of Economic tools like manipulating the interest rates, balances of trade, Dominating commodities markets and flooding the consumer markets With cheap foreign goods while over charging citizens in this for those Cheap goods which you pay for with expensive credit and so we are Bail out the large automakers---treat all these mega giants like utilities Companies and monopolies who are now necessary but the citizens money [tax] Should be infused in such failing giants but the citizens money should Provide the same kind of investment respect as any investor---i.e. Preferred Stock That preferred stock should have the same power for the people as it has For the fat cats. The world is changing and the citizen should spend some Time studying his position as a knowledgeable persons not flunkies! Morris J.
