This Could Be The Start Of Something Big

Why don’t we?

Make each state an enterprise zone specializing in some industry. Give each state a basic selling proposition. New York and Florida, for instance, could be tourism. Nevada and New Jersey could be gambling. Michigan, Ohio, etc. could be manufacturing. All states could be resource states for whatever resources there were. Tax laws could be structured to favor these industries and  educational facilities would be designed to train workers for these industries.

Encourage industries and businesses to start schools to educate their future employees. Starting with their current employees they would provide a full education  through college.

Encourage industries and businesses to collectively start their own medical facilities as a part of their business model. These facilities would be used by company personnel and outsiders (for a fee).

Use some of the vast land resources to build abundant electric generation facilities that using the most efficient and effective means available both now and in the future.. The objective would be to become an exporter of energy.

Have a crash program to create a fusion reactor that would be located  on government land. The by products H2O  and Hydrogen  would be sold and the energy used.

Start thinking creatively to turn our  problems  into opportunities. More attention must be paid to the consequences of any measures we take. For instance: our solution to the oil importation problem was to use ethanol and that caused a shortage of feed stuffs, that changed the metrics of thousands of business models (restaurants, grocery stores, brewers, trucking etc.) Every action has a reaction and will help some as it hurts others, but change is inevitable. Adjusting to it and planning for it should be a priority.

Here are some of the areas that need to be brought up to speed.

Social Security

Medical care

Education

Energy production

City planing

New skill training
