What’ll it take? – Housing Economy Views and News 3/7/2010 – Bob Zartarian
What’ll it take to pull us out of the malaise that is Housing and our Economy? Will it be Health Care Reform, Cap and Trade or Environmental mandates? How about HARP and HAMP and the other well meaning but thus far ineffective housing programs intended to stop the decline in property values? Will it be higher fees on government services or higher taxes? I think not.
What’s needed is a fundamental change in the way our nation does business. Let’s put the energy we’ve expended in the health care reform debate and instead allow America to restore its position as the world leader in commerce. Let’s focus the energy of the American people on business and admire innovation. Let’s conclude trade agreements and reduce corporate taxes to allow our industry to compete on the world stage. Let’s harness the fundamental industriousness of our people to work. Let’s allow Americans to create wealth for a better and richer life for themselves and their families.
No, tinkering with a tax credit here and there or giving a bank $1000 as an incentive to approve a short sale will not return America to prosperity, it’ll take a national policy that recognizes what America does business best and business begets jobs. It’s jobs that will create real demand and that will lead us out of our malaise. Tell your elected representatives to pave the way for business to thrive and do it now before our overspending thoroughly weakens us as a nation. That’s what it’ll take.
