I'm sitting at home at 3 pm in the afternoon stunned.  These past few weeks have been crazy and it's like a rollercoaster where you're constantly go through loops, turns, hills and valleys.  But today, the unbelievable became a reality: Obama and Biden sit before us as the president and vice president of the US.

For tonight, I can relax and maybe even have a few drinks that I have denied myself for a while.

Now, that this is all over (for the next 4 years), I can say this to the new people in charge: thank you.

After that, let's get back to reality: you guys are going to be really busy.

The next four years will be some of the hardest that you'll face.  But hopefully, the right decisions will be made.  Here's some that I would like to see:

• Cut war spending
• Cut taxes to the lower and middle class
• Increase teacher pay, but also increase the difficulty of becoming teachers in the US
• More investment into technology
• Independence from oil
• Increase taxes on the wealthy
• Investment in public transportation in major cities like LA where there's clear clogging of the roads
• Taxing oil companies over the past few years and doing investigations to see whether or not they were conspiring to hurt the US people
• Putting more money into the space program so that we at least we have more options for places to live in the future
• Increasing regulation on monopolistic industries like phone and cable
• Regulating Wall Street and putting all those greedy bastards into jail where they belong

I doubt all of these things will happen.  But it's a couple of concrete suggestions (I like the last especially)
