Realignment of American Economy Is Crucial

I hope that President Obama early in his Administration will find the courage and incisiveness to insist on an honorable and salutary re-alignment of the American economy.

I am referring to an urgently-needed and federally-sponsored alteration of our American economy that will:

---significantly reduce the role of the illicit-drug industry in the United States;
---significantly reduce the role of the sexual prostitution industry in the United States;
--significantly reduce the role of the tattoo-parlor industry in the United States;
---significantly reduce the role of the hard-liquor industry in the United States;
---significantly reduce the role of the tobacco industry in the United States;
---significantly reduce the role of gratuitously-violent "entertainment" industry, a widespread perversion of the "entertainment" industry that's dedicated to the proposition that Americans are sadists who enjoy watching others suffer;
and
---significantly reduce the role of the frivolous-products industry that produces manufactured goods that have little or no redeeming societal value, and, in most cases, that involve a significant amount of pollution and hazardous-wastes resulting from manufacture or consumer usage or disposal of that product.

The proposed and urgently-needed realignment of our nation's economy would, on the other hand, result in a massive increase in the following salutary private-sector industries:
---the private sector energy-efficient and environment-friendly mass-transportation industry;
---the private sector energy-efficient and environment-friendly personal transportation industry;
---the private sector new-inventions industry;
----the private-sector energy-conservation industry;
---the private-sector natural-resources conservation industry;
---the private sector glass, aluminum, paper, and plastics, recycling industry;
---the private-sector recyclables-pickup services industry;
----the private sector recycling-technology development industry;
---the private sector land-conservation industry;
---the private sector lifelong-education industry;
---the private-sector educational literature industry;
---the private sector alcohol-treatment, tobacco-treatment, and illicit-drug-treatment industries;
---the private sector fruit juices and tea industries;
---the private sector lifelong-sports industry;
and
---the private sector crime-prevention industry, for instance.
