subfever -> RE: How would you "FIX" the country or world (5/4/2008 6:55:11 PM)

1) Abolish the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, and restore the power of money creation from the private hands of few, to the equal benefit of all citizens.
2) Establish a 4th branch of government, to define, issue, and distribute money.
Restructure the current debt-money ponzi-scheme to an non-debt monetary system.
3) Add constitutional amendments which require balanced budgets, and inflation control to parameters within a plus or minus 1%.
4) Abolish the IRS, and Federal Income taxes for individuals on income earnings within the US. Say goodbye to social engineering. Reduce corporate taxes to 10% max. Simplify code. 4th branch oversees and collects.
5) Abolish the lobby system. Congress is no longer for sale to special interests.
6) De-Indoctrinate the American people from decades of illusions. Require all politicians, military leaders, business leaders, and the media to tell the truth, or clearly indicate that it is only an opinion. Impose severe penalties for failure to comply.
7) Impose plan to reduce the size of government by 90% over the next 90 years, and stick to it.
8) Strengthen military size by profoundly increasing compensation and benefits to recruits. Use recruits for meaningful peacetime projects (infrastructure rebuilding, etc). Include meaningful education for recruits, or student loan forgiveness for recruits who already have an education.
9) Make all public and private education, including higher education, non-profit organizations. Impose periodic auditing by government, to avoid intentional padding. Offer interest-free loans to all students.
10) Create a temporary health-care safety net, and housing and food camps, for those who truly need it during America's restructuring. After the restructuring, the playing field will be level for all. Future federal welfare (including payments to the States) will be phased out.
11) Phase out Social Security. Those 55 and over will stay in. 35-55 will have options to stay in at reduced amounts, or receive buy-outs. Under 35 are out.
12) Apologize to the world for our past meddling, promise not to do it again, and keep our promise. But let it be known in no uncertain terms, that telling the truth does not indicate weakness.
13) Decide, via federal referendum, whether we want an isolationist government with tight borders... or whether illegals should be tolerated at all; or an open arms - easy immigration process. The people have spoken. Enact the law.
14) Allow the States to decide whether or not to legalize medicinal marijuana, and/or recreational drugs within their jurisdictions.
15) Overhaul the manner in which the FDA conducts business. They will work for the benefit of the people, not Big Food and Big Pharma.
16) Require health insurance companies to include coverage for alternative medicines, treatments, and therapies. Or at the very least, allow such companies to enter the marketplace without interference from Big Pharma and Big Healthcare. Prevent Big-Insurance/Big-Pharma/Big Healthcare from being bedfellows to the detriment of the people. Those caught and proven to have worked to the detriment of the people will be severely punished.
That's enough for now...
