Advice to the US President on Competitiveness
According to research by the International Monetary Fund, recessions following financial crises driven by a collapse in housing prices are historically more severe than those of a cyclical nature.

    Its clear, we have to be net exporters and reduce govt overhead and reduce taxes. Thats it, anything else , as in what we're doing instead, makes us more like the failing overburdened, desperate to control govt command states of Europe.


    Making us more of a consumer society, ie debt ridden with too much govt involvement in protecting debt driven consumerism is the worst thing we can do, we need to save more, not spend more.
