Almost Nothing Positive to Say About the Auto Industry

Instead of speculating on "what's wrong in Detroit", why not simply focus on the successful auto manufactures IN AMERICA, WITH AMERICAN WORKERS????????? Well designed and engineered, high QC, fuel efficient and competively priced......... and oh yeah.......profitable!...
Imitation is the greatest form of flattery................. but seems to be resisted "at all costs" when the "players" have a different AGENDA!!!!!!!!

Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News

President-elect Obama:

I didn't vote for you, but offer some suggestions for your consideration to help Americans. They are dramatic, controversial and may require taking on your supporters, all of which you said you would consider doing: So here goes.........

[1] Tort reform caps in medical malpractice, which will "reduce" medical costs system wide by ~15-20% rightoff. Without this initiative, any medical coverage proposal will be unnecessarily burdened negatively for the consumer and taxpayer;

[2] Legalize drugs and the benefits to America are overwhelming! Crime will be reduced dramatically. Funding for gangs will vanish. Prison populations can be reduced by half. Court systems returned to normal caseloads. Every municipality will require much smaller police forces, while EMS & hospitals will benefit in usage and cost savings. DEA, CUSTOMS, ATF, ICE, FBI staffs and resources can be redirected to protecting our borders and terrorism. Inner city youths will be motivated to get an education as the street level drug dealer will no longer be a choice. America has paid a tremendous price because of a small % of weaklings who need a crutch in life or those elite partiers. The War-on-Drugs has been an abject & costly FAILURE and needs to end, as does the Political Corruption it ferments. America will save tremendous costs incurred by this charade and Americans will be safe to walk the streets and enjoy their homes.......Just COPY SWITZERLAND!

[3] SEC Enforcement Division tripled in size and budget and motivated by a "new" Commissioner who is committed to "protecting the small investor".

[4] Provide an avenue for all non-citizen immigrants living and working in US, who are crime free and have children born here to become tax paying citizens. Quit blaming them for being here and doing our work. Allow them to achieve peace of mind and enjoy the benefits for which they have worked. Rid the country of this devisive issue. Wanna punish someone--try Employers and INS!

[5] Enact Term Limits for Congress and Senate, so no politican can remain in same position for more than 12 years.

[6] Withdrawl, or dramatically draw down, our troops and related expenses from Allies all over the world. Protect our Embassys and leave a small deterrent force in countries like S. Korea. But the days of America protecting the world are over! Plus, we can't afford it!

[7] Eliminate the Federal Department of Education along the same lines as Reagon tried! It is an unneccesary expense, source of questionable influence to States and REDUNDANT. You said you would look for Dept's of government which are no longer needed or effective........

[8] Eliminate corporate welfare, in the form of subsiies to industries which don't require "startup" funding. Start with Agriculture and progress thru Energy.............

[9] Enact the Line-Item-Veto!!!!!!!!

[10] Make Earmarks ILLEGAL!!!!!!!!!

Best wishes!!!!!!!!!!
