There was a time when American cities were among the most magnificent in the world. Their charm matched the innovative genius and "hard work" character trait that defines American workers today. But what we see today is a tragedy. Politicians in Washington don't prioritize the infrastructure of our country that demands to nurture. Doing so creates millions of competitive jobs for American workers.
If elected I will guide federal legislation to repair and replace our dilapidated infrastructure (including transportation-related projects and utility-related projects involving the electrical grid, potable water, and sewage systems, etc.). These expenditures are necessary and proper and would proportionately inure to the benefit of all states, which are desperately in need of such assistance.
Investing in America's infrastructure will create millions of competitive jobs, and our country will become the epicenter of renewable energy research and deployment. Our country has enormous natural solar and wind advantages that we need to exploit. Not only will that approach attract high paying jobs, but it will also reduce long-term energy costs and help preserve our environment and beautiful coastline.
We must reduce frivolous government regulation that often suffocates growth and redirects capital from jobs to compliance.
Sart regulations that provide for the health, safety and general welfare of the public are essential, but we will reform or eliminate regulations imposed for less altruistic reasons or that are relics from the past that serves no useful purpose in the present Freeing up the related capital now spent on compliance will kick start job growth.
