JOBS AND THE ECONOMY...
Government can and should create jobs in an economic downturn that would:
Start upgrades and repairs needed to public buildings (weatherizing), roads, bridges, parks, airports
Prevent many foreclosures-
Allow workers to become taxpayers and provide for their families-
Create demand for products and services, so needed by small businesses-.
Helps create demand for products of farmers and ranchers in the area-
Support unions that help workers get fair wages and have safe labor practices, to maintain middle-class lives-
Remind us that we are all in this together. Congress can make things happen -or not- because they control the money that can be spent by the U. S. government
