U. S. States Going Broke

U. S. States Going Broke

There are other alternatives to states filing bankruptcy, like building a National High Speed Rail Transportation System that transports individual vehicles and would put millions of people back to work. It would also generate the revenue that many states need to jumpstart their economies. In 2009, I proposed such an innovation the President Obama and Secretary Ray LaHood, which was ignored and placed in File 13. Additionally, my renewable energy company Allen Hydro Energy Corporation http://wbsinccd.tripod.com/ahec has proposed a revenue generating strategy that would provide States with hundreds of millions of dollars in new revenue and save millions in energy costs. Many of the leaders I contacted are too busy to respond or have bureaucratic Department of Development Staff who wouldn't know a good idea if it ran them over.

Americans expect leaders, including President Obama, Congress, Governors and Mayors, to stop looking at the next election and take action to solve their problems regardless of who or how they were created.

If states are allowed to go bankrupt, why should they remain apart of this union. The South has a history of rising up and with a Black Man in the White House, it is likely that he would be blamed. If the buck truly stops with him, then it is his responsibility to lead and solve problems. If he continues to ignore innovations that could move this nation forward faster and states go broke, no one can predict the outcome.

My Solution: President Obama should create a Cabinet Secretary of Innovation: That position's responsibility would be to focus on job creation without bureaucracy, innovative ideas and solutions using technology. The Secretary OF Innovation would be responsible for working with each cabinet secretary to identify or create opportunities for businesses, invention, innovation and job creation in every state. The secretary would eliminate the "Pay To Play" process for getting grants and access to federal funding by small individual entrepreneurs and business owners, which currently exist under the Obama Administration. Great ideas and innovations are what made America a leader. Let's not forget our roots.
