Adopt a Nuclear Plant ?

    Large American and or Foreign Corporations doing business in the United States who are profiting like Exxon, Apple, Sony, Goldman Sachs and OTHERS like large transportation business should be Adopting Bridges, Nuclear Power Plants, Schools, etc using some of their exuberant profits they are earning from either their customers and/or our taxes to revamp the failing infrastructure we have inherited.

    Creating new jobs - good will is a important part of doing business and even though companies like Boeing who never pay any taxes, compaines who in many cases receive large amounts of money from our Government [hence our taxes dollars] don’t have to Adopt a project THEY SHOULD as an American Corporation WANT TO.

    In principle it is a fundamental responsibility of these companies
    to contribute back to the communities where they operate and to the country that allows them to do business within a free enterprise system.
