Roughly 10,000 green technologies in America alone, fastest growing technology, investments, etc. Green schools make more money than non-green schools. Green houses use less resources and can now cost less money. This isn't one thing or one industry or one technology, it's 10,000's of them.

Well, to be fair it wasn't Obama that bailed them out. And GM didn't get the bank rules either, probably because they aren't a bank. And they all got some regulations, loan %'s, things they can/can't collect.

And so has Obama...and no I'm not waiting, I don't expect him to do it this term. ICE has deported more illegals so far this year than under any other President in history.

Congress reduced the number of military personal, allowing them to close many supply bases. The money was put into military research.

You said... "And anytime any money is spent on any project, someone needs to make sure it's worth it"

That means more Gov growth..more over site.

I thought you meant get it passed... Very few things pass on it's own merits, everyone puts in something or they wont sign it. It's not like Obama adds in the pork, congressmen, etc do.

People can push all day, they haven't voted for what the people wanted in 30 years, it isn't going to start now.

I'm not listening to the politicians. Most of what you listed wouldn't help at all simply because the things you listed aren't one way doors of death as you think they are.
