What we really need to do is create more jobs. You don’t do this by raising the minimum wage of giving bigger tax breaks to the wealthy and corporations. We need to invest in growing industries and really push R&D and investment activities. In the mean time spend less on defense, revise the tax code and use the money freed up to rebuild infrastructure which would create a lot of jobs immediately.Let’s have a Kennedy Moon shot but aim it at making the US the best country in the world. There is a lot of opportunity in clean energy, improving the quality of medical care and making it more cost effective, and making our educational system the best in the world while reducing costs to make it available to everyone. Perhaps they could even try to reduce the number of lawyers we turn out every year.
