Prescription for America

1. Mandate a fleet fuel average of 40 mpg which includes light trucks and SUV's.
2. Increase tax credits for electric cars.
3. Federally fund bike safe cities.
4. Single payer medical insurance.
5. Get out of Iraq and Afganistan.
6. Pressure Pakistan to remove the fundamentalists from the ISI (they support the Taliban).
7. Increase DARPA funding for projects which have commercial applications. This type of
funding for things like the internet have a huge multiplier effect.
8. Nationalize the Fed
9. Give companies tax incentives not to build complex manufacturing facilities such as semiconductor
fabs in other countries.
10. Strictly regulate derivatives and other complex OTC traded financial instruments.
11. Tax Walmart and other companies that import 90% of their goods.
12. Encourage savings.
13. Pass federal laws on maximum interest rates that banks can charge on credit card accounts. The banks
are bleeding middle class America by hiding out in North Dakota which does not protect the consumer from excessive
interest rates.
