Building our economy to keep our children here and thriving, allows us to take care of our parents and pay our debts.
*Building an innovation economy, 80,000 new jobs paying $80,000 annual salary by 2030 -- cyberinfrastructure, transpacific broadband cable landing stations -- entrepreneurial accelerator and sandbox programs -- support high growth programs in aerospace and robotics like unmanned aerial vehicles. Competition and collaboration leads to innovation -- Keep our best and brightest here
*Establish an executive level state office of planning for future -- climate change, rising ocean level, solar power to condominiums, water sustainability, five year plan for infrastructure upgrades to prevent our water system from failing and new construction having to end
*Enforce long-standing laws protecting Hawaii's waters as a public trust resource -- resolving the decade long Alexander & Baldwin's application for a long-term lease of Maui and Kauai natural water sources -- support our agricultural independence and sustainability -- when is the last time you had a lease pending for more than ten years while you used the property
*Rectify the outrageous waste of money and inefficiency of the forcing all goods delivered to Hawaii by water to have to come from the West Coast on American carriers -- instead of open our ports to world commerce. Being part of the global economy means getting rid of artificial rules preferring people with power to the your and my detriment
*Taking steps to modify doing things "Hawaiian style' to mean being current, entrepreneurial, innovative so we can have a thriving economy able to pay down the $30,000,000,000 unfunded liability that each of us already owes to pay public employees what we have promised them.
