Patriotic retirement: There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force . . . . Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:
They leave their jobs. Forty million job openings — unemployment fixed.
They buy new American cars. Forty million cars ordered — auto industry fixed.
They either buy a house or pay off their mortgage — housing crisis fixed.
