AMERICAN PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA

RE:                        US Jobs Act

Suggestion:             Improving Consumer Demand

Good Morning President. We had a power outage in India. I couldn’t watch your’s US Jobs Act speech live. I watched it later at night once the power came back on but halfway through the speech. Obviously, I had pay more attention to the structure of your speech. I found it underwhelming. You want to spend now $447 billion to keep the job situation from becoming worse. Then, this $447 billion should be cut from other programs later. Here I would like to suggest when you cut the other programs spending which should not cost the lost of jobs for others. The payroll tax cuts amounts to $1500 a year savings for someone who makes $50K a year. In my opinion, combination of tax credits that won’t accomplish much.    

In my opinion, the lack of consumer demand is the core issue in US. That’s why companies not hiring new workers. The US consumer demand is now struggling due to lower borrowing limits on credit cards and easy credit has been replaced by tighter spending. As a result consumer spending is declining at an accelerating pace in US. The fall in consumer spending is hurting the US and global economy. US policy makers must seek measures to boost broad based growth. This will mean crafting the right mix of policies to generate both job growth and increase consumer demand.

Let me conclude it, your US job act plan adding more money to the system creates a false demand because once money dries up, the demand will fall and there will be no continued growth. How will that create sustain jobs? If you can not understand this you are destined to become a third world nation. I kept on insisting you since January 2010; let’s stop rewarding the companies who ship jobs overseas. Impose heavy tax for the companies who ship jobs overseas, flat sales tax for everyone, increase tax on all imported goods and no tax on all domestic and exported goods until you bring back US economy on track. I believe this policy should generate both job growth and productivity gains. If you fail to execute this policy, the restraints on consumer spending could cripple any recovery. If you succeed to execute this policy, the result would be a healthier US and global economy.

Thank you very much for your kind attention.

Sincerely,

Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja

BRITAIN’S BREXIT BATTLE 2019

To:     The Right Honourable European Commission President Hon. Jean-Claude Juncker   From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: August 19, 2019 RE:      BRITAIN’S BREXIT BATTLE   Suggestion: Hon. European Commission President, let me start by paying my respects to you and through you to. The UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has insisted repeatedly that backstop must go, if not then no deal BREXIT but he support the GFA and custom-free border between the UK (Northern Ireland) and the EU (Republic of Ireland). That is a blatant contradiction. How can he have it both ways? If the UK wanted to exit from the EU bloc without a deal - the return of a hard border is absolutely necessary. Why BREXITERS are object to the backstop? The reason behind that it would give the EU way to keep a toehold in future UK trade policy. If the UK wanted to leave the EU without backstop, in other words, a hard BREXIT or there is been no exit agreement by both the UK and the EU – then the r

HONG KONG EXTRADITION BILL 2019

To:     The Right Honourable Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China Ms. Carrie Lam From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: August 29, 2019 RE:      HONG KONG EXTRADITION BILL 2019 Suggestion: Hon. Chief Executive of the Hong Kong let me start by paying my respects to you and through you to. “One Country Two Systems” structure compels Hong Kong to operate currently under different legal system than that of Mainland China. You published the extradition bill on March 29, 2019 and first reading on April 3, 2019 which will destroy Hong Kong legal independence because extradition bill is another attempt for China to take away the Hong Kong independent legal system that China has agreed for Hong Kong to keep until 2047. Thus, the people of Hong Kong marched their protest against the bill on June 9, 2019. Hong Kong protests are still continuing. The silence of your government leads me to believe you have no plan t

AN AMBITIOUS SUMMIT TOWARDS WORLD’S LARGEST FREE-TRADE DEAL WITH EU

Hon. American President Mr. Barack Obama, Mr. President, it is a great pleasure writing to you again on transatlantic relationship for European Union and the United States of America. America is Europe’s closest partner in Transatlantic Trade and Investment. It would be the most significant bilateral FTA. It does matter because it’s covering approximately 50 percent of global output, 30 percent of world merchandise trade and 20 percent of global FDI. Thus, both US and EU gains for fiscal consolidation and high employment as no additional spending or borrowing will be needed to achieve fiscal consolidation and high employment of the US and the EU. Indeed, cost reductions will benefit businesses and generate growth and employment in the US and the EU but reducing barriers to business would accord greatest economic benefits than tariffs as tariffs between the EU and US are already low. I hope that this press conference to commit to remove all duties on transatlantic trade and e
