What Do You Think Will Help The Economy?

By
Real Estate Agent with ERA Realty Center

Is the Stimulus package a good idea?  I go back and forth in my thinking.  I was thinking today that further debt may not be the answer, but how would I know?  I'm just hoping that our government leaders do know and that they are making wise decisions for all of us including our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. 

What do you think?  What do you recommend as far as a jump start for the economy, if any? 

I went to some training yesterday put on by Cherry Creek Rado.  They gave lots and lots of statistics that make it sound like the national economic picture may not be as dismal as the media portrays.  The actual statistics sound pretty good to me compared to the news.  They came from 2 reliable sources, according to our trainer, so if you're curious, call Cherry Creek Radio and ask .

The trainer said that, "Fear is a great destoyer."  I think he said that the F stands for False, the E stands for Evidence, the A stands for Appears and the R stands for REAL.  That translates into false evidence appears real.  That would make sense since the doom and gloom in the news is causing so much fear.  I still believe that if the news reported more of the positive, the economy would correct itself.  There is much more positive than negative, in my opinion, but very few know that.

I'd love to hear your comments.
