The Prosperity Mandate: A Sustainable Economic Recovery Plan

The Prosperity Mandate information only group has launched a national campaign calling for a sustainable and renewable national monetary policy.  TPM is asking every citizen in America to tell President Obama:  “I want to invest in America.”

I WANT TO INVEST IN AMERICA!

I want to invest in America.  I want protection and incentives for my money.  I want a FundAmerica plan.   President Obama:  I want to invest in America!

Faced with the dilemma of financing WWII President Franklin D. Roosevelt received adamant advice to raise taxes and introduce a forced savings program.  Instead, FDR wisely followed the advice of Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgentthau, JR., who working with Peter Odegard, a political scientist specialized in motivating masses (read propaganda) created the War Advertising Council.  The result was a whopping $187.5 Billion ($2.5+ Trillion dollars adjusted for inflation into 2009 dollars) to fund the war effort.  Just as important as the money, the War Bonds became a rallying cry for the public to express its patriotism, follow its iconic leaders’ calls for action, and allowed for 85 million Americans to actively participate in the War effort.

Creating leverage (at a cost to every tax payer alive and to be born in the next several decades) to inflate the price of the toxic assets, excuse me - “legacy loans” is certainly maddening and perhaps madness. I thought the point was to deal with the real issues, not prop up some balance sheets based on ridiculous access to leveraged loans.

Oh wait, that is EXACTLY how we got into this mess int the first place. Isn’t it time for some new concept or thought? Wouldn’t it be nice to fund the Banks with $1 Trillion in DEPOSITS that are mandated to loan into the economy for job creating projects?

Wouldn’t be even better if the entire $1 Trillion came from the public (individual, corporate, and retirement funds sector) without a single dollar - that’s right not $1.00 of direct government funding. There exists a detailed plan and Tax Initiative Proposal that accomplishes all that and much more. If you want to really help solve the current economic crisis and build a sustainable and renewable funding of expanding economy, then get involved and Fax the White House asking them to take a serious look at this Budget Neutral proposal that creates 6 Million jobs in the next 30 months.
