I have stated in letters and columns in the Zephyr and various other outlets that CCC style work camps need to be created. There are so many projects that need done in this nation. From a new energy grid, which means the implementation of new power lines that will have the capacity to be integrated with smart grid technologies, to rebuilding our aging schools, replacing bridges and dams, not to mention environmental projects within our national park system that could be addressed. How can we finance this, you ask. We can impose a tax on the top 2 percent of wage earners in this nation and guarantee that we will lower unemployment with this program to 5 percent. Getting this through the Senate would be a nightmare, you say. Yes. Instead of backing down from a Republican filibuster make them stand their ground and carry one out. It would be interesting to see if they are as committed to their overlords as their unified voices portend.
So the change you wanted is not here in full force. So what, we have only begun to bring about change. The question of whether or not we continue is up to you and me. We are the key, not a bunch of confused tea baggers. The clock is ticking. Let's roll the dice and once again prove that the people's voices reign supreme.
