The Perfect Solution to our Economic Crisis

... is more atomic bomb testing in the Pacific Ocean.

No, seriously, it is! Think about it.

Our problem comes from declining home values. People can't borrow money against their homes any more to buy jetskis, SUVs and big screen TVs. People who make SUVs are losing their jobs. What we need to do is get the price of homes going up again.

Why are home prices falling? Supply and demand. There are too many homes for sale for the buyers we have. We need to reduce the number of homes so prices will go up again.

Atomic bomb testing in the Pacific will solve all of this.

As all scientists know, atomic bombs release radiation. Radiation causes mutation which leads to giant monsters. Giant monsters wade ashore and wreck cities like Tokyo, and here's the key part, they destroy buildings, especially houses!

Once the giant monsters have been subdued by Xetron Rays or whatever kooky thing the scientists come up with to defeat them, we can go back to prosperity! With fewer homes, prices will rise and we can all refinance and take the equity out of our homes to buy speedboats and kitchen remodelings. The construction industry will positively explode as they work to rebuild the cities and repair all the damage.

It's so easy. Let's call our government officials and get started on this today!


Who do you trust with your economic recovery, Barney Frank or Godzilla?

I dunno, Godzilla always seemed more partial to destroying oil storage depots, electrical substations, and large government buildings. Not houses so much. Other than that, sure, why not?

So, you're against investing in infrastructure now? What are you, one of those balance-the-budget nutjobs?
