If you're advocating a tax-and-spend policy, you're obviously not aversed to government involvement in the economy (that makes two of us). Of course, you're advocating that the energy companies themselves are taxed to pay for investment in the technology.
Why not nationalise the energy sector, have general tax-payer money fund the project, and allow the tax-payers (via the state [or even via wealth redustribution]) to keep the profit?
@samsonlovesyou Their are states as well as cities that own utility companies. I live near Memphis where the city owns the gas, water and electricity companies. They are corrupt and flat out broke and costing the city millions of dollars. The government should not get in the business of running what the free market can do own it's own.
It would be a naive to believe that electricity companies are corrupt, and as JL's more or less conceding, the free market hasn't been taking care of the issues he raised (lest they wouldn't be raised at all).
I would have thought that the solution to corruption in nationalised industry would have been greater regulation of government institutions, backed by public demand.
Im gonna use wrestling analogies to describe our govt, our govt is running like WCW use to run,.corrupt ,ineffiecient,dont know thier asses from holes in the ground,populated with so called elected officials that are like Russo and Bischoff.I personally would love to see a Cage match between presidential candidates,Fuck it ,make it hell in the cell,id love to see a republican or democrat puppet,get thrown from a cell through a table ,like mick foley in 1998 hell in the cell,I know im fucked up
You are fucked up! I am as well! Yets has an elemination chamber match were the congress, senete, presidintual cabnet, vice and pres all compete agenst one and another. Soul survivor keeps their job, all others are replaced. Or better yet ,a mix tag inferno match, Demwitsz vs Neo Cons. Hopefully the whole of D.C. goes up in flames.
@PandemoniumPictures1 In the match, Stone Cold to raises some hell and CM Punk to drop his "pipebombs." In the tag inferno match, the Undertaker and Kane go brothers of destruction on the participants. Wishful thinking though.
agree obamas ain't long term but it's a start,your ideas are even better problem is even if obama had the same ideas, the republicans would not work with him they will never work with him even at the cost of the whole country.unless obama wins again then the republicans would have to work with him,they could not risk another 4 yrs doing nothing.
Wind power would be an excellent step towards a better future for America. When the car was invented, people that cleaned up after horses had to learn to service cars. It is time for Americian workers to learn something new again.
Create better public transportation, make it solar powered or some other green energy. Why repair or create new highways when it takes a million years to get to work due to overcrowding. Too much lost time.
Create better internet connections so more people can work from home. That would allow more time to be productive and reduce congestion on the highways for blue collar workers. It also would allow companies to not have to buy or lease large offices.
I've never seen anything like this before... over a thousand views and not one dislike. Hey I'm mostly a liberal but this man makes great sense and needs to be heard. And he was a highly underrated WWE champion too who i miss
@skottiboy The bueaty of this idea lies in the fact it would cater to both liberal and conservative ideologies. It would create more good jobs while curbing government spending. Although both conservatives and liberals should be worried about unenployment and reckless spending at this point.
@SevenAOTP lol...I was making a joke. Why would I care for thumbs up or not? Not like they will make a positive or negative difference....you're just a troll.
I really wanted to hate this video but Mr Layfield makes a great argument here and I am truly swayed. I work for an energy company in England and we have a very similar system to the transmission charges that JBL suggests. It is very secure, requires little to no ongoing government money to maintain, creates real jobs and WORKS. England has what is estimated as one of the largest wind and tidal potentials in the world but for some reason our government seems disinterested and what is built is n
never had a real job and im 21 years old, still looking for a real job for 5+ years and im not hired cause im not good at interviews and i also have no experence. john, if your reading this, tell me what u think i should do cause i have very little hope that ill get a job. man, i didnt even get hired by mcdonalds when they hired march 19th.
suggestions? tips?
not only that, my father who i live with shoots down everything i do, oh your to slow, oh, that's not real work. bla bla bla.....
Seriously Mr layfield you really should run for the senate or house then for president once the rest of America see's you'd be better for our country then any of the stooges that are in office now.
He was great as that hardcore redneck wrestler from the late 90's who used to get his ass beaten by fake steel chairs and who also whooped other people's asses with fake steel chairs.
Well it make sense to me! just not sure about the wind mills. I heard that Japan has a million acres of wind turbines or wind mills or what ever the heck u call them and it does not helps them out with there energy problems over there well compared to the nuclear plants.
So far, from everything I've seen, if JBL were to announce his candidacy for president, I would cast my vote for him. Not because he was a wrestler, but because he is a smart man who knows business.
It makes me wish there were more smart people in positions of power. Once again, JBL proves that he is one of the more intelligent people out there today.
JBL lolx you are a Wrestler or a Politician ?

Impressed with your research, JL.
One question, though:
If you're advocating a tax-and-spend policy, you're obviously not aversed to government involvement in the economy (that makes two of us). Of course, you're advocating that the energy companies themselves are taxed to pay for investment in the technology.
Why not nationalise the energy sector, have general tax-payer money fund the project, and allow the tax-payers (via the state [or even via wealth redustribution]) to keep the profit?
