Add getting back to what we were once 'the leader' in and 'envied' for around the planet, taking on these types of issues that advance and grow an economy and with those who were really 'captains of industry', with vision, as well as the once very innovative and productive workforce that felt comfortable and with pride in what they did they developed lasting quality the rest of the World wanted and wanted to immulate! We lost that some three decades back and in many ways aren't even following those who've taken on that now empty pit here!
If I were running for election in 2012, these are the three issues I’d run on:
1. Green jobs
2. Clean air and water
3. Strong national security
Green Jobs: Move our workforce into a sustainable future. For example, take workers off the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico and put them to work making wind generators and solar panels. You heard me: the pay is the same; it’s less dangerous; and it’s sustainable:
We need to get behind this innovation. And to help pay for it, I’m asking Congress to eliminate the billions in taxpayer dollars we currently give to oil companies. I don’t know if — I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but they’re doing just fine on their own. So instead of subsidizing yesterday’s energy, let’s invest in tomorrow’s.
