And when asked about how they were going to spend it, they were all like, "Uhhh ... plan?" If they get money and don't even have a plan on how to spend it, I should get $100K, flat-out, no strings attached. That would get me out of any and all debt (house, car, etc). By doing this, it frees up my paycheck to hire crews for house renovations, which would allow me to stimulate the economy. See, it's win-win! Where's mah check?

By water I am assuming you mean Hydrogen extracted from water. In this case you still require massive amounts of electricity to separate the H2 and O. Again, nuclear can provide this. Todd,

Nuclear energy is a good source as long as there isn't a mistake that could cause fallout. What about water to fuel our industry? Its free. I agree on most of the U.S. auto industry and its CEOs.

What about water to fuel our industry?
Its free.

Electricity demand is ever-increasing from population growth, implementation of technology, etc. So what happens when 100 million electric cars now need power from the grid? I am thinking more long the lines of 400 new nuclear plants will need to be built, not 40, to satisfy the enormous jump in demand that charging stations for personal transport vehicles will draw from the grid.

Are there really positions available for that guy who bolts the hinges of car doors into place on an assembly line, in a nuclear plant? 2. What is going to happen to the United Auto Workers Union? As a tax payer I would want labor unions to steer clear of the nuclear industry. Solid thinking, I just have 2 concerns:
