He called it the 'first step in bringing us toward a solar-powered space satellite to provide solar energy for this planet.'
As an alternative, the governor suggested a program of tax credits as a 'wellness incentive' for people who do not smoke or otherwise damage their own health. He admitted that he had not worked out all of the details of such a plan, but he promised to offer the specifics later. Arguing that most illness is caused by occupational hazards, environmental pollution, and bad habits, Brown said 'Those who abuse their bodies should not abuse the rest of us by taking our tax dollars.'
He also would expand such unorthodox medical procedures as acupuncture and midwifery.
Another example of the governor's frugality occurred about three months into his administration. We were just finishing our morning meeting, when I mentioned to the governor that I had asked General Services to come over and not replace, but repair a 10-inch hole in the rug adjacent to his desk. "Why would you do that?" he asked. "Because it's unseemly to have a hole in the governor's rug." The Governor answered: "That hole will save the state at least $500 million, because legislators cannot come down and pound on my desk demanding lots of money for their pet programs while looking at a hole in my rug!"
