[clue-talk] The stimulus bill

[Brian Gibson]

My father gave me some sound advice with regards to that.  Study what you like, chances are you will not be employed in your field of study.  Considering people on average change their careers 3 times, it doesn't surprise me that's the case.

Sounds
good on the surface, but will you get training in something that will actually
give you work?  Get an education in chemistry, and see if you can get a
job afterwards.  And that was before the economy tanked.
 
If
the govt is actually contemplating giving people money, also consider lower the
amount of taxes and fees paid.

I have a good friend who’s degree is in Chemistry, who runs a
small business making radio equipment and got hired as a trainer capable of
translating from “Engineering-speak” to English in classrooms.
 
Smart people make a living, “educated” people think they’re
entitled to one via the exact job title they trained for.
 
Amen on the tax rebate.  Someone I know well joked yesterday to
me that he “wanted to get on the bailout list”.  I replied by saying, “That’s
called a tax cut.”  I encouraged him to fight to “get on the list” all he
wanted!  (In other words, instead of pork-a-palooza, how about a permanent,
no-expiration date, Federal tax cut across the board?  
 
Wouldn’t that be a better way to help EVERYONE out equally?
 
He agreed, after it was put that way.  
 
Go for it… Fight for your personal bail out.  Call your
representatives and voice your opinion.
