SUGGESTION TO THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT OBAMA 2011

SUGGESTION TO THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT OBAMA

To:               The Right Honorable President Obama

From;            Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja

RE:               US Unemployment Issue

Suggestions:

Good Morning Mr. President. I have a high hope for you but you have been a disappointment to me because you have failed to make the case for more stimuli now until the lost jobs are recovered. As you knew that US economy is based on consumer spending. If you want to get back your economy on track you have to address the problem of 9.1% unemployment. US have 9.1% unemployment and unemployment payouts are not good stimulus. I would recommend you to not to implement deficit reduction measures until the lost jobs are recovered. You have recovered over two million jobs in the last 15 months. You are still short 7 million jobs when you take into account the decline in government jobs at the state and local level. I think you need to continue more stimuli something for which you have failed to make the case. As for the idea that higher tax rates would mean more revenue but that is false. It is no accident that reductions in the higher rates of tax have always meant more revenue in American history. If I am not mistaken, this was true under the Harding and Coolidge. Mr. President sometimes you admit that the drive to increase tax rates has nothing to do with reducing the deficit. Sometimes not. It was an inextricable delusion. You will do nothing to really reduce government spending as opposed to reduce tax expenditure or get rid of the bubble economy.

Mr. President you should have endorsed the recommendation of your budget commission making sure that the implementation of those deficit reduction measures waited until the lost jobs are recovered and you should be making a stronger case for stimulus which addresses the problem of unemployment.

Thank you very much for your kind attention Mr. President.

Sincerely,

Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja.

SUGGESTION TO THE PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN YOSHIHIKO NODA

SUGGESTION TO THE PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN YOSHIHIKO NODA To: The Right Honorable Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: 30.09.2011 RE: Japan Energy Policy Suggestion: Changing Industrial Policy Good Morning Prime Minister. BBC World broadcasted your speech regarding alternate energy sources. I agree with your approach to reduce nuclear power in the medium term because having the nuclear reactors in an earthquake prone zone is not safe for the environment or the communities that live near them. Japan is struck in a difficult situation concerning energy. If you want to eventually move away from the nuclear energy, you’ll have to invest more alternative energy sources. If you can’t invest, then it may have to say with a nuclear power for a while. You need make the right decision because source of energy is dwindling. You have one more option which is Japanese people depend on nuclear power with only 1% but 9% including hydroe...

INDIA'S FARM BILL 2020

To:     The Right Hon. Indian Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi   From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: February 15, 2021 RE:     India’s Farm Bills 2020 Suggestion: Hon. Prime Minister, let me start paying my respects to you and through you to. India’s farm reforms have been advocated for many decades by the Indian farm economists. In fact, I’m strongly in the favour of the farm reforms when I was in Indian financial market 2007. The farm laws are very good in intent and end ecologically unsound practices. Farm law needs to be welcomed as farm laws are free market laws which allow private players to directly purchase agriculture products from farmers. In other words, farm law eliminates middlemen and gives the right to farmers to sell their agriculture products to whoever they want and they could decide the price but your government proposal on farm laws which fear that it refrain small farmers have freedom to negotiate to...
