Plan presented to Congress and White House that pays for public option w/o new taxes or fees

A simple plan that allows the government to pay for a public option for healthcare without new taxes or fees. It also cuts the governments carbon footprint by 50%.

The Federal government pays for almost one billion square feet of office space. Most office space is very expensive yet it sits unused 70% of the time because most white collar work is scheduled for only one shift per day or only 45 hours out of a 168 hour week. 30% efficiency is completely unacceptable in today's economic and ecological environment. Most buildings are open for 12 hours each day from 6 am to 6 pm. By keeping buildings open an additional 4 or 5 hours each day, we could schedule 2 shifts of white collar workers, thus increasing our efficiency by 100% and reducing our carbon footprint by 50%. We could cut the cost of overhead for each employee by 40 to 50%, half as much infrastructure, half as much office space, half as many computers and supplies. With the overhead for each of our 2 million Federal workers approaching $50,000 per year, the potential savings could be $50 billion per year, enough to pay for health care reform.
If adopted by government and private industry this simple plan will help in the following ways:

•Save federal gov a trillion dollars in next 10 years
•Exactly amount needed for universal healthcare
•Reduce white-collar overhead costs by 50%
•Reduce carbon footprint of office space by 50%
•Reduce budget deficits for most state governments
•Reduce our dependence on foreign oil
•Make American workers competitive in the global economy
•Improve profits for all businesses and
•Increase tax receipts for state/fed governments
•Businesses can hire more employees & lower product prices

  1. I guess I'd say try working in corporate America before you come up with such a grand idea. If you think the money would be directed to something worthwhile like universal healthcare, you've got another thing coming. The money would be transferred to the admin staff via bonuses due to how much "they" saved the company.

    I’m also sure the employee’s would love to start working nights, because companies are not going to hire anyone new. That would interfere with profits…

    Good plan, but it belongs in an entry level college class (mainly due to you using ISO_9000, which elevates it over high school level).
