Well these were my thoughts of yesterday. Why use inefficient, means such as tax credits, etc. The problem is specific, lack of tech investment and my idea would specifically target in a focused way with a tangible goal the exact problem.

"Instead of an airline bailout the government should be thinking big. A visionary reaction would be to declare the governments intent to finance the laying of fiber optic to every home in America. Radical Moslems would like to turn the clock back to the 12th century. We should send a signal that we intend to continue our march into the future. The tech market from fiber optics to chips to software would instantly respond to the potential. The idea that governments should minimize involvement in industry is a fallacy not supported by facts. All the really large things civilizations have accomplished involved governments. Governments represent the combined will of whole populations and that combined will expressed financially can accomplish orders of magnitude more than companies or industries ever could."
