Press Release: December 16, 2008

Nuclear Power Plants?

The military brought us Nuclear Bombs, and society used this science in a peaceful application of these weapons of Mass Destruction, Nuclear Power. Chernobyl demonstrated this power source could have catastrophic effects when things go awry.

We have Nuclear Power plants located on the Ocean, like Turkey Point here in Florida. Turkey Point is also located on the outskirts of the Everglades. An ecosystem that is the bastion of sea life that man wreaked havoc on. To undo this damage Florida is spending billions to restore this fragile environment to its natural state.

Global warming and rising sea levels present another catastrophe waiting to happen that could potentially render south Florida and its fragile ecosystem uninhabitable, much like Chernobyl. This fact presents us with another reason to transition our power grid to Solar, and other alternative power sources, and raises the question if the Government has made plans to begin safely dismantling and storing this Atomic waste?

Under my plan, converting to a decentralized power grid will create the demand for nationwide employment, reinvigorate the banking system, provide the US with a competitive advantage in the global market place, and virtually pay for itself, not requiring Federal Funds, except for seed money.

Simultaneously we need to restructure and retool the auto industry to be not only competitive, but more importantly to give them a competitive advantage in the global market place. Café Standards are passé as the technology has made them obsolete. Comfortably, we can see EV ranges of over 100 miles between recharges and or MPG.

Additionally, this strategy will free up a significant amount of the $1 Trillion already committed to refurbish an outdated 1800’s power grid to accomplish the restructuring of our auto industry, with tax credits, and a retrofit program for used cars.

Our National Security is in peril due to Global Warming and a financial crisis, both the result of greed and poor management practices. Any infusion of capital from the government should be in this regard, which will kick-start the economy and begin the long road to regaining our manufacturing supremacy and prosperity.

Remember, solar and battery power is GREEN, it’s CLEAN, and it’s FREE!
