Political Stuff - Obama Meeting with Rich People

Barack Obama announced that he is going to meet with 20 CEO's of fortune 500 companies such as Google and Intel. He is going to discuss trade issues, ways to hire people, clean energy, and taxes. He says the "primary engine of Americas Success is not the Government but the Ingenuity of American Entrepenuers.

Now that is a great idea. I never would have thought to do that. Its a good idea by instead of using laws and such to force businesses to solve these problems, He is going to talk to these people. Just talk. I guess its a good idea because the thing is that most of these people have money to spend and are the same as you and me but with large sums of money. Just like we want progress they most likely want progress to and are most likely happy to help the country as long as its not overly detrimental to their company. And Barack is right unless the Government is communist it cant solve our economic problems on its own. Now if Obama can get some help from the CEO's then we will be much closer to solving our economic problems then just having the government do all the work.
