In today’s tumultuous economy, thousands of resourceful people are losing or have already lost their jobs. The lives of these individuals are truly at stake as they pinch pennies to survive their tacit struggle. The comprehensive economic stimulus plan passed recently intends to provide relief, since congressmen and women listened to the vociferous outcry of the 7.2% of Americans out of work.
The 787 billion dollar plan includes programs to give almost 3.5 million unemployed Americans a new job in fields such as construction and renewable energy development. In the former, utility workers will prove their worth by improving America’s infrastructure. In the latter, the great people of our nation will show their ingenuity by dreaming up new ideas to power our homes, businesses, and cars. Citizens working in both areas will be thanked greatly for their meticulous work – they are, in both instances, hearing the strident cry of the people to advance into the twenty-first century. These jobs will also aid the restoration of financial tranquility in their lives, and that will prove President Obama was prudent to strive for the passage of the stimulus bill. The bill has other important aspects too – tax breaks to states and citizens, and increased unemployment benefits, food stamps, and health benefits for those who need it most. President Obama does not want the public to think their problems are over, though. He warns (with his usual verbosity) that this depression could still linger for years, but it would linger that much longer without a bill like this to get people spending again.
Confidence in America’s economy is currently subdued instead of resolute and unwavering as at was just a few years ago. However, the citizens of America need not fear for the future. Depressions are inevitable when dealing with a living market, but prosperous times shall return. Since the market moves through a constant cycle of highs and lows, we can only join together to try to restore the good times again. The bill passed yesterday promises a myriad of assistance for those Americans worrying about tomorrow while they try to bargain their way through today. When the items from the economic stimulus plan are finally put into action, serenity will return to Wall Street. Until then, the unemployed can only vent about their problems as they wait for help. But, again, they should have full hope that the current administration and their ideas will pull them through this difficult time. As Obama said on the day of his inauguration, “Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America — they will be met.”
