Public policy we hardly knew ye.
Okay, so maybe it's because it's 2 AM and I haven't really slept since returning from Green Bay yesterday or maybe it's because I'm working on a paper that asked me to describe what my political ideology is but I have an idea for a solution for the current bind the automakers of American are in. It works out like this. If I were the current president elect I would have a meeting with Ford, General Motors, and Chevrolet. In which I would inform them that if they wanted a government subsidy in any form they would all have to get out of the automobile industry. I would then show them a plan that would divide the country into three equal shares. Where the three automobile manufactures would create a mass transit network. I would inform them that they would have to work together to ensure that it would link up with one another, and that it wold be efficient enough to meet the needs of the American public. Given that not everyone's front door would be connected to a mass transit hub, I would suggest however that every major metropolitan area would be. The logistics of getting to and from your front door to the hub has yet to be worked out. However my idea without too much fine tuning because it is just an idea would be a massive public works project of this countries infrastructure that would allow me to enter a hub in Minneapolis and it would take me to the East or the West coast at a nominal fee.
