Wisdom worth sharing, words worth remembering.
I think we can be the very best place to start a business to grow a business to invent a new technology to change the world to change the country. But we've got a lot of work to deliver a new California to the people of California.
I got to get the right people in the right job. Because a lot of costs can be taken out in the context of your administration without the legislature.For example using technology to do more with less. Using technology to fight fraud. Reorganizing and streamlining can be done within the context of the administration.
I have run large organizations I know what it takes to create a healthy business climate and I have more experience than Jerry Brown doing that. So it'll be a stark contrast a career politician vs. someone who has met a payroll gotten a return on investment knows how to use technology to do more with less.
What's sort of interesting about the whole public relations disaster that is the Net in some ways is that the fundamentals are really good.
It is very clear that voice communications is moving on to the Internet. In the end the price that anyone can provide for voice transmission on the Net will trend toward zero.
Because what happens is as the economy suffers tax revenues go down. But unlike businesses where at least your variable costs go down in government your variable costs go up: unemployment insurance workmen's compensation health care benefits welfare you name it.
And I want to be able to – you know make Republicans and Democrats famous for keeping jobs in California.
You can't stand for too many things. You can't use the bully pulpit for too many things. So I promise you every day I am going to talk about jobs spending and education.
Because if you don't have a great workforce a great higher education system you're not going to have the next eBay the next AmGen the next you know Miasole and not only California but America is going to fall behind a whole new competitive context which is obviously China India and other countries.
Look at growth look at how much time people spend on the Net and look at the variety of things that they are doing. It's all really good so I am actually encouraged by the fundamentals that underlie usage growth on the Net.
