48. Regenerate America's discontinued Space Exploration Programs: America's spaceflight, exploration and research programs must be refunded and reinstated. While there appears to to have been a silent coup with regard to many politicians selling our technology down the river to international interests, we must draw the line before cutting back government contracts for America's space programs. Such actions directly impact our ability to maintain GPS parity, and our national security and interests. For a great many years, if we wished to explore space we had to do it aboard a Russian ship powered by Russian made engines. America appears to no longer have a need for this kind of stultifying arrangement, even though international cooperation in space will remain a priority. I promise to work toward refunding discontinued Space Programs and their objectives according to their original charters.
49. RE-examine and Fund and build the California monorails: such as the "Blue line 80 monorail millennium project" down the north-south 405 freeway from Ventura to Long Beach and east-west in directions across L.A. County to connect our airports, tourist attractions and entertainment centers, in conjunction with incentives to encourage businesses and citizens to "park and ride". There have been many proposals for monorails over many years, but as with proposed improvements of the freeway system compromised by graft, contractor corruption, third world planning and scheduling, and the apathy of career politicians who see no direct gain for themselves, there has been little change to positively affect Los Angeles County's distinction for having the worst traffic in the nation.
