Web-enable all government operations of USA
USA should be run completely electronically (to the extent possible) like a very well run private company. The operation should ensure fairness, transparency, efficiency and restore confidence in government, while drastically reducing government spending. It's time to run the country like we are in the 21st Century. The Obama campaign was run like a 21st Century campaign and now it's time to run the country that way too!

Government funded and maintained dirt tracks.
Instead of wasting money on dumb nerd program things, I perpose Presedent Obama should make surplus jobs building and maintaining public dirt tracks. Not to mention; local hospitals would recive much surplus buisness.

Regulatory agencies: arm's-length relationship with industry
It is well-known that many of the country's important regulatory agencies are in bed with the industries that they are supposed to be regulating -- for example the biotech industry's revolving door into key positions in the FDA. This has been shown over and over again to allow for the sale of potentially hazardous materials with inadequate testing, or the ongoing release of toxic substances into the environment with no genuine oversight.
For the health and safety of the country and its people, all of the regulatory agencies should be staffed by knowledgeable people who can be shown to be…

Plain Language
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.

Comparison of the cost of construction a non-renewable resource with replenishment costs and the construction renewable resource with the source of 'exergy' as sunlight. And in the internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value (NPV) - include the many risk coefficients. Risk, if CO2 sequestration and (Green House Gas) GHGs were released inadvertently.

mandate plug in flex fuel hybrids
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.

fight & win the war against terror, do not surrender
Iran and Syria (and elements in Pakistan) are fighting a proxy war against the West and USA using terrorists in Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, Indonesia, Yemen, Sudan, Somalia and Nigeria . The Iranians are paying thousands of poor muslims $2400 a month to fight in Iraq. If we let them win by surrendering under Obama, Iran will effectively dominate the Middle East and will control most of the worlds oil reserves within five years, making it the most powerful country in the world within 10 years. Retreat from this war will destroy the Western economy and we will enter a new…

Promote Infrstructure upgrades instead of capping data rates
Third world countries who are just now creating the infrastructure necessary for internet communications are putting in the best technology for the job.
US companies on the other hand are using outdated technology that is downright ancient in comparison. Instead of upgrading their networks they would prefer to impose data caps on users, often times low enough that YouTube and other online video sites can eat through them with little to no effort at all.
In a time when the majority of the country have only one option for high speed internet, many are forced to upgrade to business level…6 votes -

engage DHS to defend eUSA borders
As security practitioners, we are entrenched in expensive solutions to secure the data and privacy of those customers we serve. Small and mid-sized businesses do not have an equal footing. A centralized cyberdefense department should work towards securing our electronic borders, much like brick and mortar.

Abolish Financial company "self-audits" for InfoSec - IC(2)
Sarbanes-Oxely attestations are signed by the CEO, yet the controls and compliance tests are performed and reported by lower-ranking employees. Having come from one of the largest and elite, reporting inaccuracies and glaring security gaps fell on deaf ears. This ultimately left card members (holders) at risk. Everyone at the top was more interested in their annual bonus, as opposed to being ethical and responsive to protection of the "general public at large". An external entity needs to perform the attestation of the "state of security" at these firms & companies as opposed to internal security practitioners and business heads.…
