John McCain plans to unveil his technology plan today
on his website.
Here is a preview I found from the Wall Street Journal.
One particular tidbit I noticed (ok, yes, because as a computer geek I stand to benefit) is a proposed 10% tax credit for research and development employees, as an incentive for employers to hire Americans. The goal of the plan is not some esoteric feel-good mush, but to create "good, high-paying, innovation-oriented 21st-century jobs" according to McCain spokesman Taylor Griffin.
Bravo...McCain should push this plan...information workers are a backbone of today's economy. Many of them tend Democratic, but are very much persuadable.
