America, The Chaotic Country

America: The Chaotic Country

By: Joan T. Kloth-Zanard, RSS, ABI, Life Coach

This is not a political debate and party bashing issue.  It is about what we as Americans can do without involving the Democrats and Republicans to fix this Chaotic Country and straighten out this mess.  What can we do to take back control of our economic situation and governmental issues?  What can we do as an individual to make a difference?  How can small business help to make a difference?  What can corporations do to change the state of affairs?  What can the family courts do to stop the excessive cost of high conflict divorces and separations?

We as a nation keep looking to our government to fix things.  We keep relying on warring political parties to make a difference.   But our government is so overwhelmed and chaotic that it cannot step out of its own way.  And our politicians refuse to work together as a team.  Teamwork is the heart of all businesses and especially successful corporations.  Our government is in the business of protecting and helping its citizens, but if they refuse to work together, then what good are they?  I feel like it is Warner Brothers vs. Disney with these political parties.  We might as well be voting for Bugs Bunny from Warner Brothers and Mickey Mouse from Disney.

We need to think out of the box about whether we have a way to help another person or family economically survive.  For example, just one small job with a laborer or contractor could bring about even a small stimulation of the economy.  As a business or corporation, do you have the capacity to make a difference?

And what about the banks?  All they need to do is start loaning money at the lowest possible interest rate and reducing the interest rate on all loans they presently hold to 1.5% or just above. Just this small act decreases a person or family’s monthly expenses on a major bill, giving them more money to spend in the economy.  More money spent in the economy means economic stimulation.  Economic stimulation means more jobs.  More jobs mean more people working and spending money in the economy, which means more economic stimulation.

And what about the family courts that eat up all the money earmarked for the kids and living expenses.  When are the family courts going to stop allowing one parent to constantly make false allegations with no repercussions for slander or defamation?  When are the family courts going to put their foot down about contempt of court orders?  When are the courts going to stop allowing one parent to railroad the other parent so that parent must spend the rest of their lives fighting for their rights to be a parent to their children?  Why have the courts not gotten the proper training they need to make educated decisions and safe decisions for the innocent children?  If there was less money spent fighting in family court, there would be more money to spend in a positive way in the economy and thus not only an economic stimulus but a way to create a healthy change in the way divorce/family court deals with conflict situations for the children’s benefit.

I know I am not a ‘brain surgeon’ or economist, but it seems obvious that if we can stimulate the economy in two-ways at once while creating a positive outcome in another area of life, that this is a win-win for everyone.
