Ohio and Issan

Are there any real economic planners in the government? I realize that leaders do not have the technical skills of their own to author an economic plan but are they not responsible for delegating tasks to complete an economic plan and then take credit for it.

It seems like everyone wakes up in the morning and reads the same newspaper. I could be staying in Ohio or Issan and the news is the same. The US issues a tax refund economic stimulus plan a few days later Thailand issues a tax incentive stimulus plan. Singapore wants to attract global talent therefore, wants to change its image from the “Fine” City to the “Fun” City complete with discos and a casino. A few days later, Thailand wants a casino again.

Maybe, for a few days we could borrow a few technocrats from Japan to write an economic plan for us instead of just reading the newspapers to see what others are doing.

Even politics jobs, education, healthcare are the same issues. The poor dumb uneducated Issan farmer is blamed for bringing back the current good ole boy same faces government in Thailand. The poor dumb uneducated blue collar unemployed factory workers in Ohio are to blame for bringing back Senator Clinton’s campaign on the exact same promises that her husband President Clinton made and did not deliver after 8 years of office universal healthcare and jobs. The only difference is the poor dumb uneducated Issan farmer even under martial law were brave enough to vote out the military while the smart educated middleclass chickens in Bangkok had no alternative to give. The poor dumb uneducated blue collar unemployed factory workers in Ohio had a choice “change” with Senator Obama and chose not to change.
Well for sure the voters in Ohio will not be getting any jobs or healthcare any time soon at least we got healthcare out of it.
