If I was the Governor...

of any state i would recruit Wind energy companies or Solar power companies to move to my state and operate tax free in exchange for providing any homeowner with wholesale wind or solar residential systems. In addition, as governor, i would provide tax credit subsidies to all of these homeowners to essentially bring the cost to zero.

The result would be a statewide grid of green energy which would reduce the state's CO2 emissions and ultimately give the state a new revenue stream. This revenue stream would emanate from sales of off-peak energy to utilities in other parts of the country.

Not only does the math work, but when your kids ask you in 20 years what did you do to stop global warming, not only do you have an answer, but you can tell them you increased your state's bottom line allowing for more services to residents.

If I ran Logan Airport in Boston...

I'd eliminate all the rental car buses and do one of two things:

- Build a monorail system that ran from the rental car area in a loop to the terminals (like SF Int'l)

or

- Establish a new bus system where each bus worked for all of the rental car companies.

What's the point of hertz, avis, budget, national, etc all having their own fleet of buses polluting the air?

A little leadership can go a long way.

If I owned a baseball stadium

If I owned a baseball stadium and the season was over, I'd let sportsfans come to the stadium to watch the local pro football team on the gigantic television in centerfield.

I'd earn new revenue on a small stipend for entering the stadium as well as selling beer and food.

Assuming the baseball season ends with 10 weeks of football remaining on the NFL calendar:

- 10000 fans at $2 per entry = $20k
- 10000 fans x 2 beers at $5 per beer = $100k
- 10000 fans x $10 food = $100k

Total: $220k x 10 weeks = $2.2 million (less labor, clean up and food/beverage costs).
