Put people to work rebuilding our transit infrastructure and building new infrastructure. Take commuters off the road lessening our dependence on foreign oil and reducing our carbon footprint.

From DC to Portland we are too dense to be driving ourselves around in cars. We should have European style intercity and intracity transit in the Northeast.

Of course there are many more issues, too many, but this is something we had, and could have again with not too too much effort. And I think people want it.
