the Mosler Proposals make sense to me, totally bypass Big Gov and Big Busines and get as much money as possible in the hands of average citizens, not a useless one time stimulus but a continuous increase we can count on for a year or years, lots of money enough to re-flate us out of the death spiral deflationary depression engulfing the world.

Not going to happen - NOT with the senate we have ! Do you remember the fight over Obama's paltry stimulus bill ? AND yes the senate cut that one also ...

If there are others with solutions that will really do any good, I am all ears

The House has passed several bills where are serious proposals for a solution. The Senate has blocked all of them due to the fillibuster, and the split is always along party lines. That's just the state of things right now. In order for change, Obama needs to break the deadlock in the Senate.

At least you are spreading information, a real "right" we can only hope will continue but will not if we allow The Government to grow into the dictatorship all failed democracies succumb to.

Are you really afraid of a dictatorship in our Democracy...? Obama is a president who is unwilling to do anything by executive order, even though he has been criticized by his own base for trying to work in a bipartisan manner with obstructionists within our own Congress.

I've seen the radical right paint Obama as a fascist, but the very idea is so laughable that I can't believe a rational person like yourself would believe that.

Compared to the last administration, which took the executive privileges of the presidential office to do all kinds of things - torture, rendition, censorship, 2 wars, etc - Obama has been the most willing to work within the structure of our Democracy than most any administration before him. Let's give him a little credit for that.
