THE JOB PLAN BY OBAMA.

Industry and private enterprise should take the Obama job plan and use it, or better still, to make it work. He could not do it alone, or all by himself. The policies would be in place, if a bill would become the law of the land, after the U.S. Congress had debated it, agreed on it and passed it.

The implementation of the content of the final bill, which the president would sign into law, would then become applicable or practical. Yet, the operability of the law would be dependent on businesses putting it into effect, and syphoning off the benefits that were due them.

Job creation would then become a reality, as businesses would begin to hire, expand and generate profits; while at the same time encouraging consumer confidence in spending, by the production of quick, satisfactory and essential "supply and demand" types of goods and services in the (consumer) markets.

Thus, putting the practical aspect of the new legislation into high gear would start to grow the country's mangled economy again.

Its success would be a dual effort by both government and business; with the administration providing the proper guidelines, within which all industrial concerns and businesses, large and small, would operate.

President Barack Obama mentioned at least three things in his speech that could be put into effect without delay; namely, payroll tax reduction, tax cuts and tax credits for businesses, both big and not so big, to utilize to make swift progress.

Infrastructure and other items that would require contractual and detailed arrangements would take a little while to materialize; and it was obvious that everyone that was listening to the president understood what he said; that the urgency of getting something done must not be underestimated. It would start with Congress; and if lawmakers would perform their responsibility without rancor, then much could be achieved in a short span of time.

It was almost like saying, "Let's get the economy moving again and all other things will follow suit," or "Get going guys. There shouldn't be anymore delays."

Now, what should be expected of the Republican opposition was its sincerity to move a bill through both chambers of Congress, in an expeditious manner; and be able to pass it, with the cooperation or the compromise that the Democrats have been requesting all those months, if not (2 1/2) years, that they have had the White House in their possession and the control of the Senate, to be forthcoming.

In other words, party politics should vicariously be set aside; particularly by Republican lawmakers, for the Obama administration to produce and serve what it has promised the American voter, since its (administration's) inception in November of 2008; jobs, jobs, jobs. If that should happen, then the country would be out of the woods in no time at all.

However, if Obama's job law was passed and it did not produce what he said it would, then he might as well forget about his reelection bid. The Republican Party would have won the 2012 general election effortlessly in advance. Who could then blame its members for anything that they have done to derail Obama in the past?

His (Obama's) efforts to put the economy back on track would have been deemed as being clumsy anyway; as it (economy) could not be left to remain in limbo, and the country would not wait any longer to see another party taking over the reins of government.

At the moment, all have work to do; as the nation hopefully waits for a good outcome and better results from the new Obama job plan.
