Reply #7: I think, if we did this, our economy would BOOM. [View All]

[Guaranteed]

When I saw Big Dawg in Stockton campaigning for McNerney, he said that every eight years (not sure how he came up with that number) a country needs a new "big thing" to create an economy with. The last "big thing" was the Internet, of course, and 22 million jobs were created (at least over Clinton's term).

Anyway, the idea is that retooling our society to get rid of oil would create millions upon millions of jobs, and make people more productive.

It would also give our country something to be proud of- put us back on the cutting edge.

I can think of nothing I would like to see the Democrats do more. Except maybe deconglomerating the media. :P
