If only Trump was KING

If Only Trump Were King!

April 27, 2011 Trump claimed he could beat Obama to be President.

First day he would take on China and impose a 25% tax of all imports.

Then he would tame OPEC and take control of the oil market.

If only Trump Could Be King

But this is the U.S.A. 

Can’t happen. 

Even if he is elected President in 2012, he would not have the power to change much.

Our government is needed for Law and Order, but government trying to manage the economy is the biggest disaster of all.   

A new choice we can all make today….

Stop exporting our money and jobs buying cheap imports in the big box stores.

Choose to use local resources to support the local economy, jobs and lifestyles.

Promote local fresh food, wood products, biofuels and waste energy recovery.

Can a small business compete with China?

Can a Small Business Compete with China?

My wood flooring business competes directly with China every day!

Cheap imported wood flooring is flooding the U.S. market right now.

Most people just want cheap and convenient - at this moment.

So…..

I think LOCAL, use what I have right here that fills a local need.

I have to Be SMART, Flexible, Fast

I tell my local story every chance I get

Educating the consumer is a constant effort

I cut out all the middlemen/brokers/shippers/wholesalers

I sell finished wood products direct to the retail customer

I Install my wood products right in my customer’s home

Service after the sale keeps satisfied customers

I sell Solid, Natural, Unique, Custom-made works of wood art

A few people seem to appreciate the value of using local wood.

How to Change the world - April 2011

The Big Corps are running the government and avoiding paying their fair share of supporting needed government services - to keep all the money for themselves.

The government isn’t going to do anything – really.  Can’t really blame any of them – that is how things work today.

We can fix this ourselves by making wise purchases – we actually do have the power and the votes with what we choose to buy every day.  Our dollars are our power.

We must take full responsibility for the results of our purchases – choose cheap stuff at the big Corporate stores and you have created the whole mess yourself.

We can’t fight ourselves and have any hope – we must see the real picture and be smarter – starting right now.

Buy from small local companies as much as possible.  Avoid buying imports and cheap stuff – as much as possible.

We have the numbers and we can instantly communicate – there is no reason to let the big Corporations continue to dominate us.

Comparing Madison and Tripoli and Yemen??

OK, You spoiled rich kids can protest and “fight for your rights” = you can do that here.  Do you have to be so NOISY?   Can you be more informed?

But anyone who thinks what the people in Madison are doing is IN ANY WAY COMPARABLE to the demonstrations in the Middle East – you should be totally ashamed of your ignorance.

When you travel to developing countries and see how most of the people in this world live day to day, There is no Comparison.

They have no money, no benefits, no rights to speak of – and they are truly risking their lives and livelihoods right now.

We are so rich and spoiled and grossly wasteful and unappreciative and arrogant - here in Wisconsin and the U.S.A. 

It is too bad that all the energy in Madison is not doing anything positive.   Globalization keeps happening here in Wisconsin and unless that is understood and incorporated into the solution – everyone has totally missed the point. 

If this effort and energy was focused on rebuilding our economy instead of tearing everyone down – miracles could happen right now.

All people are doing in Madison is trying to hold onto the riches we had before we exported our jobs and money overseas.   Too Late!

We need to look at what resources we have right here and use them to meet our local and regional needs.

We need to stop buying cheap imported stuff at the big box store – for our “convenience” and exporting our money and jobs.

No Politician or Media will voice this – they are controlled by the big Corporations.

Big Corps and Government Leaders - you should be freaking out

The Big Powers Are Fighting to Maintain Their Dominance Today – they should be freaking out!

The government is controlled by the big corporations – they will never really help the little people.

The Media is controlled by the big corporations – they will never really care about the little people.

All they care about is money and power.

Globalization is not going well for us here See the Trends!

A simple change is needed to fix things as best they can be fixed.

All we have to do is look at the resources we have and use them to meet our needs.

All we have to do is buy local as possible.

We have to do this ourselves  Let’s Us Average People  Stimulate Our Economy - Starting Right Now!

Stop exporting our jobs and $$    Keep  our Money and Jobs local

We can fix the economy immediately by choosing to buy as local as possible from companies as small as possible

Buy value with the big picture in mind.

This needs to be a mass effort – all the little people need to band together to deal with the big powers.

What We Need To Do Today

Solid, natural, local

We need to understand globalization and how we have chosen to export our jobs and money.  Choosing cheap imported stuff in the big box stores over quality goods made close to home – we are responsible for the economic problems we face today.  

The slower economy has made our government problems more evident.  People everywhere are fed up with poor services and refuse to pay more when major incompetence is rampant.  Right now, states are busting unions of public workers because there is no money to pay people as before.

We all need to realize globalization has happened and we can not just demand high wages and benefits like decades ago.  As a businessman, I face the competitive global markets everyday – I can’t demand anything – I have to earn whatever I can and be smart just to survive.

We need to change our buying habits – our purchases are the most powerful force in the world.  Every time we buy something, it immediately builds up the company and country selling the product.  If we buy online or over the phone – nearly all of our money immediately leaves the local economy.  If we buy in the big box store – most of our money leaves the local economy.  If we buy from a locally owned company – more of our money stays in the local economy.  If we buy from a local producer – nearly all of our money stays here – supporting good jobs – creating a positive spiral effect.   We need to buy as local as possible.

Choose as Local As Posible
