These are bold plans! FINALLY we have a President who is IN OFFICE for a change. Here are the goals of his Recovery Plan talked about in this weeks address:

• Doubles renewable energy generating capacity over three years. It took 30 years to reach current levels of renewable energy production. This plan will double that level over the next three years – enough to power 6 million American homes.
  
  
• Undertakes the largest weatherization program in history, modernizing 75% of federal buildings and two million homes.
  
  
• Computerizes every American’s health record in five years, reducing medical errors and saving billions of dollars in health care costs.
  
  
• Launches the most ambitious school modernization program on record, sufficient to upgrade 10,000 schools and improve learning environments for approximately 5 million children.
  
  
• Enacts the largest investment increase in our nation’s roads, bridges and mass transit systems since the creation of the national highway system in the 1950s.

Here is how they are planning on doing it:
