Alright look, we are in trouble. Even if you are doing well at the moment, it is not going to last forever. We have serious problems and there is no easy solution.
The words to a song "Tax the rich, feed the poor, till there are no rich no more". Well they do tax the rich, but they do not really feed the poor. The poor usually need a leg up not a handout. So many are willing to work. Some aren't, some are lazy and course some are really disabled.
We should tax big business. Others have said this will drive them away but I say if they aren't paying anything anyway fukum. And there will then be tariffs on their products. They want access to our market they pay. The tariffs will be higher than any taxes they would have paid. But these people who make millions a year worrying about pennies is getting old. They are sick, infected with an addiction to money.
And there will be a mandate. Unless you are convicted of a VIOLENT crime, I do not mean selling pot or whatever, you can have a gun. If you want to carry it in public you need to go to the gun range and qualify so that you are not a menace to bystanders. Just like you need a license for a car. In fact not even that, eliminate license period, you do not get a diploma unless you can shoot and drive. But that is too drastic a change to expect.
And the banks ? Ho boy I got news for them. If I can do it, they will be so regulated they won't want to be in that business. Let them move out, they produce nothing. And this audit the fed like Ron Paul wanted ? No, completely reconfigure the fed. I know we cannot go back to the gold standard but we certainly can do better than we are, which is on the brink of falling down completely.
And I am not attacking anyone. Out the drones away. I intend to try to make peace with ISIS. They have to understand there are other people on this planet. Unfortunately we have showed them. But we are going to totally stop attacking them and we expect the same. Simply stop the hostilities. And then with the promise that if they do not stop, we will destroy them, wherever they are. Kill ten of us we will kill a thousand of you. So go right ahead. (that is the true nature of domination, and not in a good way)
Relations with Russia ? Well, Putin, we are pulling out of Syria. They can be your ally, in fact we should be your ally. People are sick and tired of war. We kinda got Ukraine but that isn't going to kill you. We might even take the missiles out of Poland. Not sure.
Relations with China ? Yeah, you can still sell us TVs but we want support. Spare parts and all that. Service manuals. Same with all other countries making electronics for the US market.
I cannot promise that I can get this done but I will try. This is a fundamental shift in policy that is going to have consequences. There will be some short term strife, but in the end it will make us stronger and better.
You know, tariffs were one of the major causes of the civil war. At that time, the US government was not in a huge debt and rent seeking all the time. They were trying to affect commerce. That is called social engineering. The south did not like it at all. But my tariffs would be on foreign goods.
Extra fifty bucks for that TV feeds the needy.
And that is another thing.
Anecdotally, the story of a friend of mine, I should probably give him a call to see if he is still alive.
He had a job working for his stepdad doing office furniture painting, on site and making new tops for the desks. Made a shitload of money but had to travel. So like a truck driver you can be making fifty grand a year but be homeless. Stepdad got put out of business by the IRS.
This was in the early 1980s. He came to me ready to kill himself because he had no skills. Back then, things were different. I told him to go get on welfare and tell them he wanted to go to school to get a skill. He went to Westside Institute Of Technology, a trade school, not a college. It was not alot of money but the government paid for it. He is an HVAC specialist now.
He has paid more in taxes than they ever paid out. As leader I would make sure those options are there. If you have the aptitude you get the training. If not, I don't know. I did have to teach him some electronics though. Schools teach electronics wrong. Really, I should be a teacher but fukit.
But I would make it so anyone on welfare could go to school somewhere and improve their skill set. Even if we have to set up government run colleges, it is cheaper than supporting another three generations of useless people.
This is how other countries think and it is why they are doing better. I do not want the US to become completely like them, but we probably should adopt some of their methods. One of the main things is to make education available to the poor. I would do that.
