I can fix the economy

[trombone2007]

Think of a jungle or tropical rain forest. When a large tree falls, the light that was confined to the treetops shines down to the forest floor, giving energy to the smaller plants and helping them grow. If that tree were, just for an example, AIG or GM, then smaller companies would fill the gap left by the original giant.

Seeing as how giving these huge companies money didn't really work, the only other option is to NOT give them money.

Thoughts?

I don't think that global economy works the same way as global ecology. Despite how similar the words may be.

Most of the smaller car companies are owned by the larger companies.

that is true it is what a lot of econimsts are saying that we need to allow these companies to fall so new ones that are not curropt can come into existance and give the people new work

only supper man can fix the economy now, he would do that thing where he reverses time by flying around the earth backwords.

The economy is kind of like a bad analogy: if you just ignore it and go on with your life, you'll do fine.

Everyone was saying this while it was happening, its not a new theory. Many of the state representatives were stating that they were receiving feedback from their constituents up to 10:1 against the bailouts, and they still put it through. Its no secret that the American people got screwed on that one. It is part of capitalism to allow the companies to go under, and last time I checked we were supposed to be a capitalist nation.

In response to your title, NO YOU CAN'T. You have a semblance of a theory on how to make smaller companies more successful, but that's it. I doubt you have any ideas on how to go about toppling a big company, and besides, things won't necessarily go how you plan.

Well said, good sir.

I don't know, it is only a couple letters off.

The way you fix the global economy is get rid of bank debts and get people to start spending again. The more we spend, the more jobs we create. The more jobs we create, the more we have to spend. The cycle practically will feed itself once you get it started.

We also need to start investing in cost-cutting measures that will pay for themselves in due time.

 

[Knonsense]

By not giving money, you may be speaking of one or more things. Please be specific.

A) Are you suggesting that we boycott companies because they are big?
B) Are you suggesting that the government allows companies that are to die, to die, rather than bailing them out with taxpayer money? (as the clear bias in the wording suggests, I could potentially get behind this concept)

 

[Kollega]

Hmm... That actually sounds reasonable. Only problem with letting megacorps die is the workplaces. But i know how to create workplaces. Here is my extremely complicated plan of three steps.

Step 1: STOP. Stop manufacturing everything in China because it's cheaper. Get that work back to your own country. Your taxpayers will thank you for it.

Step 2: ???

Step 3: Profit! No,really. Lots of profit,and lots of workplaces.

 

[fulano]

I think we just need to fuck up with the banks and let them fold so we can watch how the BEG for more money and tell that the people need them.
