TODO:
1) We need low cost housing. Mobile home parks with $10,000 RVs for rent @ $200 / month. Here in Texas the lowest cost housing options are $600 - $700 a month. With radically cheaper housing it will be much easier to survive working the types of shitty jobs that our economy is currently producing.
2) Large companies need to start raising more capital on the public stock markets. Economic growth comes from people investing money to produce MORE goods and services than were previously produced. However, most of our retirement money does not go towards this purpose. The overwhelming majority of retirement funds go toward purchasing shares of stock on the secondary market which does not contribute to producing MORE goods and services at all.
3) We need to quit allowing healthcare companies to fleece our healthcare system. There's no good reason for the United States to spend twice per capita what Canada spends for healthcare.
