close the "loopholes" get rid of the "offshore accounts" bring back Clinton's taxes on the wealthiest and promote a new energy saving program with money like we put into the Space Program. Declare a national energy emergency with a five year plan to put technology in place to revamp the way we use our fuel.

Tax credits for energy savings (like Carter had in place for years) and it would give a new "Spirit of Independence to America" that we could work towards.

Then Classical Liberal and others could put their computer skills to use and work for us here and not for a Corporation who outsources to India.
We need a Government Program to fund new jobs in the Energy Saving Industry. Like Roosevelt's WPA Program during the Depression.

It can be done, if they are Creative. I hope that they will be. Democrats are always more creative than Repugs. That's why they hate us. Our minds are open to innovation and change and creativity. Repugs need to have a leader they can mindlessly follow. If not a leader then a doctrine. They don't have the ability to be flexible.

I have hope, but we have to urge Kerry/Edwards to be innovative. Press for change and get ride of the "loopholes and breaks" to corporations that Reagan started to do away with and Poppy and on down. Revise Nafta...so much work, but it seemed Kucinich and Dean talked about it more than these guys. Maybe after they are elected the other voices will be heard.... I pray so.
