Just turn on the “Printer” and here you go, the money that we need. Is it just that simple?
How about cutting tax for the higher income group to trade for the extension of another year of unemployment payment?
Recently, I called one of my potential buyer who ended up not buying because of unemployment. She still had that much of downpayment handy but can no longer qualify for any loan. She is an experienced dentist assistant and I do not expect less people will see a dentist because the economy is bad. If you have serious toothache, no matter what, you will see a dentist. But what about that periodic cleaning or minor toothache, can you go without it? Oh yes. So her boss has to cut cost and so do many other businesses. Instead of hiring full time employee, many firms fired the permanent staff and replace them with the temporary staff. Of course, no fringe benefits, no 401K, no medical insurance payment, these add up figures help. Now what? Why should the unemployed work the part time job, being deducted the hard earned money from their unemployment benefits? So, it ends up while business people try to survive by cutting cost but the unemployment money take away their part time helpers. 18 months are long enough and now another year, no kidding.
My prospect actually turned down many part time jobs. She did not want to work for nothing. What I mean is the money she earn from the part time job will be deducted from her unemployment paid. So she only look for permanent position and so are thousand of many others.
Thank you for checking in.
What do you think? The latest figure is 64% of population can now afford to buy a house but not so many people are really buying. Why? Will tell you next time.
