Reverse Money Flow from the Consumer to the Banks is the way to solve the economic crisis.

If the Banks valued the reverse flow of money from the consumer back to the bank in the form of interest free debt paydowns, the economy would even out a lot sooner. Instead, the banks and the federal reserve only seem to acknowledge the outflow of credit that is putting the consumer farther and farther behind because of the interest rate charges that eat into what a consumer can actually spend.

What will fix the Stock Market? How about the government admitting that they and the banking community have gutted the consumer beyond recognition.

George Bush will speak AGAIN this morning and once again I will be reminded of the musical quartet playing on the deck of the Titantic as the Titantic sank. I feel as if George Bush is simply there to ease our minds while the economy tanks.

What would fix the stock market?

An acknowledgement by the government that between their level of taxes and fees, along with ultra high interest rates by the banks on unsecured credit, the consumer does not have enough spendable income left. If President Bush would just admit this, and agree something needs to be done about it, this would actually encourage wall street. New investments in products and goods by businesses would be spurred by the belief that the consumer will be able to afford new purchases at some point in the near future.

However, something else has to happen, and I'll devote my next article to that key issue.
