  3. Protect more Americans from identity theft by requiring Big Credit to provide citizens with the option to completely restrict access to their credit score similar to how victims of identity theft are allowed to do today. Except don't offer the restricted access AFTER they have been made victims but allow people the chance to restrict access BEFORE they are victims. Currently a victim of identity theft has to prove they were a victim with a police report or something similar. Why not give everyone the chance to protect themselves from the start? Contrary to companies that say people want instant…

  5. All public documents and websites should be required to be written in plain language ("plain talk"). This especially applies to documents that consumers are required to read and sign when getting a mortgage. All should apply to all government regulations and disclaimers.

  6. By mandating each auto manufacturer to have as an option a flex fuel plug in hybrid available by 2010 we can be free of mid east oil, clean the environment and save the auto companies from themselves. All technology is available now and can be implemented by that date. Cellulosic ethanol should also be available soon after that time so that the world food supplies of corn, sugar are not depleted.

  10. Create a government managed required open source voting software project. This software should have it's code open to all for review/submitting updates but managed by the government. It should be a legal requirement that it is used by all voting machine vendors for any machines used for federal elections.

  11. Teleworking needs to be promoted at a national level. Traditional workplaces have been slow to adopt teleworking for fear of less productive people. Physically commuting 10s if not 100s of miles a day using fossil fuels is a waste of resources. Promotion of teleworking through tax breaks or other promotional means could help spark the change in workplaces.

  12. Offshoring of technological jobs provides short-term gain for Corporate America (e.g. lower labor costs), however our nation/economy can no longer afford the long term expense (e.g. reducing opportunity for American workers to build technological expertise necessary to compete globally).

    Please provide incentive for Corporate America that hire and train American workers.

    And please ensure that every American has access to an affordable broadband network. This will enable cost-effective training for all Americans (via virtual classrooms), increase telecommuting to help reduce our nation's carbon footprint, and improve availablity/transparency of information to better manage employee performance from afar.

  13. This secure ID could be used to not only vote but guard against vote fraud. Begin the trend to electronic voting not only for elections but on major pieces of proposed legislation, government planned regulations, serve as emergency medical information, secure logon, prevent identity theft, and be used to validate public services entitled to or received, prevent medicare fraud, etc.

  14. Low-income students - especially primary school students - are at a significant disadvantage in the digital era due to lack of access to both the hardware itself (computers) and the Internet (broadband access). In every generation, children are the future of the workforce, but in the 21st century, computers are indispensable for success in - and even understanding of - the working world around us. If kids don't have access, they fall exponentially behind those who do. What discoveries won't be made (or might be delayed significantly) because the child who might grow up to make them couldn't advance due…

  16. We cannot let a ignorant body of house and senate representatives create legislation without the facts, without real scientific data that backs them up. The need to educate them on what REALLY works is essential. Just to mention an example the ethanol fuel idea is flawed, providing just a bare minimum of net energy gains after all is accounted for. (1 unit of energy spent = 1.4 gained), raises the cost of food, etc.

    This should help streamline our energy independence goals.

    All legislators, and specially President Obama need to have the latest data on any particular matter, cell phone…
