Default Name what you would do to turn the economy around

Serious - short and succinct, name the top 3 - 5 things you think must be done within the next two years, in order to turn the economy around.

1) Let Bush tax cuts expire for all making $100,000 and over

2) Job creation: I'd focus on health care, fastest growing industry in the country, 1/5 of our national economy, employs across all income factors and skill levels (from unskilled maintenance to administrative to CEO to professionals) with huge spillover into manufacturing sector (drugs, tech, supplies, manufacturing, paper, computers, etc) How to do it? I would expand health care availability to everyone - yes, single payer for all, via Medicare buy in - then provide targeted sector corporate tax incentives to enable the growth.

3) still thinking
