i've always thought one of things america does best is figuring out practical solutions. sometimes the little guy has an excellent solution, sometimes a cowboy, sometimes a bigwig, and sometimes great ideas never get heard and no one benefits.
i just read where the government is giving inventors and idea people a chance to show what they've got. Strategy for American Innovation encourages government agencies to use prizes and challenges for people to come up with excellent solutions. solutions though, not ideas as how to do something. the solution must work and it's up to you to design and create it and prove it can do what you say it can. apparently nasa has been using this approach and has had results.
it's an interesting article, whether you're an innovator or not. if you're good with ideas, read it.
