Done Right! In A Nutshell
Savings bonds could be help in economic crisis!
While Washington tries to "fix" the banking and Wall Street mess created by subprime "gotcha" adjustable rate mortgages defaulting en masse, many of us are looking for a safer place to put at least some of our retirement, college funds, etc.
And we also want our country to become more energy-independent and our crumbling infrastructure repaired. But with things as they are, how can we accomplish these three objectives? A new form of U.S. Treasury savings bonds could be the answer.
Without U.S. saving bonds, we wouldn't have been able to supply our troops and allies like we did in World War II. If the U.S. Treasury issued energy independence and infrastructure savings bonds that paid an interest rate about 3 percent greater than the annualized FED rate adjusted for inflation, only be redeemable on their anniversary date(s), and what they pay is not taxed when they are redeemed at maturity, all three of these objectives can be achieved without any increase in taxes — especially if these funds were only employed as 1-to-2 matching funds.
Such bonds could increase employment enough to even reduce our taxes. Pass this idea on to your friends and then the politicians.

"Energy Independence US Treasury Savings Bonds"
To provide the low-cost climate stabilization tools that today’s young people will need in the near future, the US government should invest $25 billion dollars per year in public research, development & diffusion (RD&D) of clean energy technologies. Examples include, but are not limited to, energy efficiency, wind, active and passive solar, biofuels from non-food crops, geothermal, tidal, small scale hydro, storage technologies including batteries, and fuel cells. To insure program-effectiveness, tie subsidies to demonstrated reductions in both cost and global warming pollution.

I have good news to report — last month, many of you submitted stories about being legally required to take money out of your retirement savings accounts that have been devastated by the Wall Street meltdown. I shared your stories with AARP’s lobbying team who have made it a top priority to temporarily halt mandatory withdrawals for those age 70 and 1/2 and older.
We called on Congress to freeze mandatory withdrawals — and last week we won relief for 2009! Now AARP needs your valuable input again.
Help us prioritize for 2009 - take a few minutes to tell us what yo...
This month your feedback helped us demand — and win — much needed financial relief for older Americans who have lost significant retirement savings in 2008. While distributions will continue for 2008, the new law permits distributions to be voluntary — not mandatory — for 2009, thereby providing an opportunity to rebuild retirement accounts. You helped us prioritize this important issue — will you help us again as we plan for 2009?
It’s fast, easy, and your answers will help guide us as we plan AARP’s campaigns for the coming year. What’s the best way to communicate with you? How can we work together to make a difference in the lives of people 50+?
We’re gearing up for a New Year, a new Congress, and a new President — and we need to hear from you! It’s simple — just Click Here and you’ll be taken to the page where you can read the questions and respond with your answers. If you have problems with the survey, please contact the AARP Online Advocacy Team at webactivist@aarp.org.
Please take a few minutes to help us plan our program for 2009.
Thank you in advance for participating in our survey. The information you provide will be invaluable to us as we plan for the coming year. We very much appreciate your time and effort and value you as a member of the AARP Online Advocacy community.

P. S. This ad from Divided We Fail tells President-Elect Barack Obama that we're ready to help support him as he addresses the critical issues of health care and financial security. Join the Divided We Fail Movement!
As 2008 comes to a close, the Divided We Fail team has been reflecting on the past year. It's astounding to realize how far we've come -- but with one year ending, another begins, and our work to bring affordable health care and long-term economic security to all Americans is entering a new stage.
In the past year, we united over 1.6 million people pledging to fight for health care reform and long-term economic security for all Americans. We made our voice heard in the halls of Congress, where over 2/3 of our representatives have now pledged to reach across the aisle and deliver meaningful action for the American people. And we spread our message to every corner of the nation.
It wouldn't have been possible without the thousands of faithful activists and supporters like you who attended debates, collected pledge cards, spoke out online, and reached out to family and friends.
Now it's time to turn our eyes to the future -- and with 2008 coming to a close, it is time for everyone to make a New Year's resolution. Will you make a resolution to hold our leaders to their promises and support Divided We Fail in the 2009?
"I resolve..."
• "...to tell President-Elect Obama to keep his promises on health care and financial security when he becomes president." GO >>
• "... to tell my friends, family, and colleagues to join Divided We Fail this year." GO >>
• "...to stay engaged and active our fight for bipartisan action on health care and long-term financial security."
The Divided We Fail Team has already settled on our resolution: continuing our call for an end to the bickering, and a start to real solutions for the American people.
The first step? On January 13th, we'll be taking signed pledges to Capitol Hill to remind Congress that millions of Americans have signed on to our campaign -- and are ready to hold them accountable if they fail to act.
And for the next 12 months, we'll be increasing our grassroots activity: hosting events across the country, taking to the airwaves again, signing up more volunteers, and growing even more active than before.
Divided We Fail's diverse coalition of members will be the umbrella under which our leaders can come together and hammer out the solutions to our nation's crises. We hope you'll continue to stand with us.
Thank you for all your work and support,
The Divided We Fail Team

Todd McKissick said… - Why is everyone promoting government solutions to this problem? This is a complete waste of time and passion! There are other ways where you don't have to begin a process with a bunch of beurocrats telling you that you need their training first.
Grants.gov is a hoax site as far as I'm concerned. I've been involved with over a dozen people who have applied there and all come away with the same answer. "I just wasted 6 months and thousands of dollars and got zilch!" I'm in that boat too.
SBA??? They're worse. Don't believe me? Go to their survey to see if you're "ready to start a business" in their opionion. Answer every question yes - ALL of them. It still points you to an endless loop of schooling or training. Sorry, guys, but unless you're a big company with political contributions available or a professional research facility who makes their living from lifelong gov research projects, you're not getting a dime.
Does anyone have any ideas we can do amongst a group of a few hundred people WITHOUT the government or banks controlling it?

About grants.gov
Grants.gov is your source to FIND and APPLY for federal government grants. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is proud to be the managing partner for Grants.gov, an initiative that is having an unparalleled impact on the grant community. Learn more about Grants.gov and determine if you are eligible for grant opportunities offered on this site.
Grants.gov was established as a governmental resource named the E-Grants Initiative, part of the President's 2002 Fiscal Year Management Agenda to improve government services to the public.
The concept has its origins in the Federal Financial Assistance Management Improvement Act of 1999, also known as Public Law 106-107. Public Law 106-107 has since sunset and is now known as the Grants Policy Committee (GPC). For more information on the Grants Policy Committee, click here.
Today, Grants.gov is a central storehouse for information on over 1,000 grant programs and provides access to approximately $500 billion in annual awards.

Please check out this new group, your thoughts would be much appreciated.
T. BOONE ROUND-UP
Like Mike Kendall's Energy Bond concept it is a painless and common sense way for Americans to contribute to solving the complex problems of Energy Independence, National Security, Economic Growth and Environmental Protection.
As with Energy Bonds, this suggestion for providing incentives for K-12 education in conservation may be the best kind of investments we can make.
If you beleive the idea has merit please spread the word to you network.

Robert Schultz said… - I watched the video. Obama is going to pass a stimulus package, and is trying to get some support from the Republicans. The Republican plan of giving out tax cuts to revive the economy has not worked. Americans NEED JOBS! This is the point of the Pickens Plan as well, build the infrastructure for a renewable energy economy. Put Americans to work building our future energy independence from foreign oil.
Give a handout, see it spent, and it is gone. Give a job, see a regular income sustaining a family, continuing to flow into the economy.
