Fix the Economy

So I just saw that Jon Huntsman is throwing his hat in the ring for GOP candidate for president.
One of the things he says is that he's going to 'make the hard decisions' on the economy.

Does this include legislation getting many of the top echelon to take huge pay cuts rather than firing a bunch of end line workers to 'save money' thus saving jobs and helping the economy? No more multi-million dollar salaries for the top brass while 1000's of jobs are cut to meet budget cuts? No more golden parachutes worth several million dollars to people who essentially failed at their jobs and are being let go. No more free health care and added benefits while the front line workers have to pay half their wages to cover just the monthly fees and having to meet enormous deductibles before they even kick in?

Somehow I really doubt that these are some of the hard decisions this essentially top echelon executive is going to introduce. So there really is no reason to pick this one either.

Another story I saw is about a brand new school in southern California that they can't use because after the expense of building it they can't afford to operate it. Again, I have the same fix for this. These are public officials. Why are the administrative exec's who don't have anything to do with the children making several thousand to probably lower seven digits and the one's who are there in the front lines with the children making low 5 figures? And in many cases having to spend their own money on supplies? Where are all the millions of dollars going? Into the pockets of people who do not now and probably never have had anything to do with children. Cut their salaries, give the money to the kids, hello, duh.

And that's My 25 cents...
