People are out of work, terrible job losses throughout the country. We have a new president. We cannot just let him do all the work by himself. It takes the whole country to work with him. Lets get back to work and I know it will be a tough road to deal with.
What we need to do as Americans:
We need to go back to buying made in USA materials. When you go shopping, think of the jobs that will be gaining and the jobs that will be losing. If you buy a made in USA product, you can create more jobs for those products made in the USA. If you buy a product that is made outside of the country, you can lose jobs for products made in the USA. Simple put. Choose American made materials first before going to foreign made products. Stores like Walmart, Pier 1, Neimus Marcus, and several other like them must promote USA made products. Walmart, where I go shopping, has a lot of products made outside of the USA. They should tame down on that and think about what is happening in the country with the loss of jobs. You get what you pay for, that also include job losses. It is a non ending circle of economics. You buy foreign products and the money goes to that country, to their workers, they create more jobs for their workers. Nothing comes here but the product they make. People who don't buy USA made here, there is no demand and the supply goes up. Then companies start to lose money and they cannot support their workers. Then there are layoffs and then businesses closes leaving the worker with no money, high bills, and living on the street. It is crucial that we get America back on its feet to aim for USA made products and get the workers back to work again.
Products to aim for to get America back to work, look for labels that say made in USA, not Taiwan, China, Japan, Banglodish, and any other foreign country until our economy goes back up. It will be slow and it will take a long time, but if everyone acts together, we can help getting the jobs back to the industries of USA. If you go to a store and they don't have anything that is made in USA, tell the store about it. Tell them, you are living in USA and not one item here is made in the USA, all of it is from foreign countries. We need to support our country, too. Next time I come here to shop, I like to see some made in USA products. This will get the store to notice that in times of crisis like this, they should get USA made products into their store so people can buy them to support USA. For foreign made materials, leave that for the industries who buy them to add to their manufactured product for consumers to buy. You will still support USA and at the same time, it is also supporting the country that is sending them the parts to make that product.
USA made products should also be priced lower than foreign made products because these products should be purchased first over the foreign made. Not vice versa. Walmart has foreign goods priced cheaper than local goods. TVs are an excellent example. Foreign HD tvs are priced lower than the local made HD tvs. Where is the money going? Not to USA, but to the country where the tv came from. TVs like Zenith, RCA, Magnovox, and all other USA made tvs loses out. They stay on the shelf and then ends up on markdowns and not get sold. Jobs get lost. We have to start small and then rebuild back up. You as a consumer should also know who needs to be supported when shopping.
Companies who hire foreign workers should also beware. Not all foreign workers want to become US citizens. This percentage of foreign workers come here to work, then when they get their money, they go back to their country with our money and spend it there living a rich life in their country. I have seen this, myself. Local workers and foreign workers who want to become a citizen and live in the USA will keep the flow of money within the USA. Just because a foreign worker will take less money and do the job, does not mean they want to become US citizens and keep the flow of money within the US. They should be given the opportunity of becoming citizens. If they don't show interest of becoming US citizens, then why are they here. If they are here just for the money to take back home, then by looking at the economy, they should not be hired unless they show interest of becoming US citizens.
Years ago when America was young, new immigration settlers were coming to America, everybody wanted to start a new life, work hard, establish a family, and become a US citizen. Now, there is a large percentage of foreigners, legal and illegal, who come here to work, once they get the money they need, they go back to their homeland, spend it all there, and show no interest of being a US citizen. To some it may not be a big amount, but if per person makes $18,000 a year, and if you have 30 foreigners coming into the US not as a student, working that amount, then leave in 5 years with all that money by not paying taxes, here is that loss from those 30 foreigners alone: $2,700,000.00. That is how much USA loses out. If those 30 workers decide to become US citizens and stay in the US, that money will stay flowing in the US. It is like this, how will they like it if we go to their country, not to be citizens but to be workers there until we make enough to be rich in our own country, and then come back with all the money and their country goes broke. What employers should do is brng the question up at the time of interview of the person who is a new foreigner and see if they want to become US citizens. If they say no, it should be up to the employer to decide by looking at the economy and where the money is going in order to see if this person should be hired or not.
This is the way it should be: jobs in the US should be for citizens of the US, foreigners who wants to be US citizens residing in the US, foreign students in the US who are currently going to school in the US where the job is paying their education. Anything else, it should not be granted. Illegal aliens should also be given a choice: in order to work in the US, become a US citizen or go home with no pay. Illegal aliens should also pay the full taxes of the country while they are working for their citizenship due to they did not go through the proper channels of getting into this country legally. That is my thought on it.
Once our country do the things that are right to bring the economy back up, people in the country should also do the right things like consumers buy USA made goods, not foreign. Hire workers who are either US citizens, foreigners who wants to become US citizens, or foreign students who wants to pay for their education in the US. This way, the money stays in the US, and it flows in the US by bringing up the economy and leads to more jobs. It takes pure common sense and everybody must do their part.
If you get a stimulous package from the federal government, and you decide to spend it on purchasing goods. Buy things that are made in the US instead of foreign materials. That is what it is designed for. This is what the President wants. In order to make this work, people have to purchase made in the USA goods instead of foreign goods.
