I've written several essays describing how I wish our Federal government (USA, in Washington DC) should take measures to fix the current (2008-9) mortgage financial and economic crisis. See list of links below. But so-far the government hasn't done what (IMO) it should, and for the most part leaders haven't shown any inclination to do what I suggest, and my Anna Eshoo, my representative in Congress, hasn't even responded to my suggestions, so I'm in the process of taking my own measures to create a new economy that isn't based on money but rather on direct exchange of labor.
