LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

Only jobs will fix problems we are facing right now

Solving inherited problems and the other complex challenges of the presidency is the test of leadership and greatness. Perhaps the most singular leadership challenge of today is putting America back to work.

Fighting a war in a corrupted country, bailing out Wall Street, revamping health insurance, addressing the immigration problems, trying to reduce the deficit, coping with a defective bureaucracy and court, etc., have done nothing to relieve the problems of tens of millions of Americans who are unemployed and underemployed. Only a job can achieve that end.

Erectile dysfunction basically hits the men if levitra canadian pharmacy they are unable to develop longer and harder erections during the sexual intercourse, obese man lacks the stamina and losses his erection quickly before the sexual intercourse. But very few know the risks of cigarette addiction. order generic cialis As per FDA (Food and Drug Administration) Zenegra is the most cialis viagra for women reliable and dependable treatment that can be used as a back up in infertility treatment.4. Pfizer has invested lot of money in cialis no prescription http://respitecaresa.org/15th-annual-celebration-love-children/ discovering the accurate dysfunctions that they have.

It is imperative that our country’s leadership, from the presidency down to local governments, look to the future, rather than through the political/personal opportunistic rearview mirror. If it takes changing the elected leadership and/or a greater deficit, so be it. The problem of unemployment must be solved now or the consequences will be the Great Depression of the 21st Century and the destruction of the middle class and U.S. economy.

I would like to propose a few projects that could have a meaningful effect on where America could be going. Set the completion for the year 2020, as a clear vision for the future:

• Build a national coast-to-coast, border-to-border high-speed train system (faster than 300 mph).

• Rebuild the power distribution grid.

• Concurrent with rebuilding the power grid, integrate solar, wind, nuclear, hydroelectric and geothermal energy sources into a development and distribution system.

• Develop means of producing safe water, including desalination, and a national aqueduct system.

When thinking of the effect and magnitude of these programs, think Hoover Dam times 50. They would create jobs that cannot be exported. Let us leave a legacy for our children beyond a broken economy.
