This one really needs more votes!

jmkowalski: No drama = shared turf. The Labor department has been gutted into a former shell of itself which doesn’t even release a fifth of the statistical data it did in 2000. If you want to hire an army of wind turbine erectors, you will need decisive executive action at the highest levels, not an ancient gutted bureaucracy.

Was the text of this proposal changed after voting was opened?

John: We can attract the worlds best students and make sure that more of them are coming from the U.S. at the same time.

c8503: The problem would be better solved by improving the quality of the United States public school system, by, for example, using 5% of the defense budget to halve class sizes, build more schools to house the doubled classes, put teacher salaries on par with upper-middle management salaries, and waive state and community college tuitions. Let U.S. students compete in U.S. universities!

We need lithium sulfur batteries on both the small scale for portable consumer electronics, and the large scale for storing wind power for periods of calm.

Using the analog television spectrum and existing analog spectrum infrastructure per ScooperJay’s suggestion below is much more important than an earlier transition to IPv6.

This certainly is an issue deserving technical attention, because like almost all omnibus (multi-topic) legislation, there are some parts that need to be repealed, and some parts that need to be fixed. For example, moving privacy-busting powers from the FBI to the IRS will allow IRS auditors to focus on better audits, internationally, e.g. http://www.taxjustice.net/cms/front_content.php?idcat=2

jmkowalski: The CTO can certainly say, “Hey Boss, read this please and if you approve please send it over to Harry and Nancy”

This needs to be balanced with privacy-busting IRS subpoena power against tax shelters including in the Caribbean and Switzerland, non-income assets, and moving the focus of IRS audits back where they will make the most money for the U.S., instead of so many little-guy audits, which are a disgrace.
