The negativity here on D.U. is getting old. America is in a war or two right now and we're hurting. Rather than tear down our nation, perhaps we can pull together to help build it back up. We could start right here in this post by brainstorming ways to help bring our deficit back under control. I have thought of a few ways we as a nation could earn extra bucks:
- The Treasury Department, for example, could promote a nationwide Ann Coulter and Dr. Laura vs. The Bush Twins caged wrestling match tour.
- We could sell California to France, and then invade the state and kick France out. We'd make some money and, killing two birds with one stone so to speak, we would get to bomb Hollywood to the stone age, getting rid of all the liberals there.
- Privatize the Executive Branch. Oh, wait, that's been done.
- Corporate logos on all weapons could certainly help the Pentagon budget. So, instead of simply bombing Fallujah, we could "Wal-Mart" it. Shock and Awe more profitably could have been "The Home Depot Shock and Awe." When interviewed after battle, officers could take a hint from NASCAR drivers: "The Pep Boys Regiment is grateful for all of our sponsers. We couldn't have won that battle without those sleek Honeywell missle components and the Raytheon cruise missles performed like champs."
- Product placement and endorsements are gold mines for our country, and have already been taken advantage of by a few of the smarter firms like Enron and Halliburton. Still, we can do more as a nation to place product. Maybe the Baptist Church would pay to be known as the official church of the White House. "Mission accomplished? It's Miller Time!"
- Wouldn't a Bush Family Christmas album sell particularly well right now?
Any other money-making tips?
