Revolution.


--Steve

Dawg I've already brought everything you said up, in fact I stated we've got to stop the dem versus pub crap.Both Bush and Obama have failed miserably. That means neither party works. I said to do away with the electoral college months ago and go by popular vote, I agreed with almost everything you said but I also added we should have the power to vote them out during their term leaving them with no retirement or benefits. The people have got to have more power to jerk their a$$es around and straighten them up. The sad thing is since the unlimited donation bill was passed the rich will decide who runs now. China could give enough money to one candidate to win. I believe if we quit trying to be Mr Biggy Pants and withdraw from overseas, embassy's, UN and all we might have a chance on controlling our debt and the terrorist. I believe our borders should be temporarily shut down until we get our own house in order. We had 80,000 troops in Japan stting on their asses collecting a paycheck and 60,000 in Germany. Those are the only two countries I've kept up with, I know there's a lot more.. Bring em home, keep em on standby and let them work on our infrastructure. To the ones that can afford it buy American. If you would spend 5% of your paycheck on Ameican made goods you could help create a million more American jobs. How much more does a Hanes T Shirt cost than one made in China. Be sure and check the labels.

Right on Jog. They hunted the crooked SOB's and locked them up.

I guess I am a bit more pragmatic.. but if I could be dictator for a day:

Federal government could only fund project via the state. That is to say, they could not refuse to give road and bridge money to a state that didn't fund Medicare. The only thing the feds could would be to send the money to the state. The state could decide the fate of the money period.  This is actually pretty strong medicine, and would give the states just a tad back of the power they once had.

I would not "out law" parties, but I would level the playing field. I would get rid of any law that supported any party, or existing parties over new parties. I would outlaw "war chests". I would put term limits on senators.

I would redefine "war" as physical manifestation of either defending attacking a country. Not using "war on drugs" and "war on terror" to keep the country in a war-time condition forever.  I would reduce the size of our military to no more than twice the size of the next largest military (unless during time of war as redefined).  This would require shutting down many bases.

I would require any "agency" regulation to be review by congress, and approved. The regulation would be valid for 3 years only. It then must be approved again. No agency could have over 200 regulations. Agency regulations would have to be enforced by the agency and their budget. If they cannot afford to enforce the regulation, the regulation dies. No regulation would be above the constitution, or any national law. All regulations must cover the entire continent.

I would return the US to a commodity based economy. This is actually VERY harsh. The commodity may or may not be gold, but it sure wouldn't be oil (as it is now).

I would terminate NAFTA.
I would require all imports be (first) owned by an importer. Grey market goods, outright illegal items would be a crime by the importer. Offshore tax dodging importers would be shot.

I would not allow ANY "special" privilege's for immigrants. You want to come work here, fine.. great!. But, you do just like every other citizen does. No subsidized fishing boats, no tax breaks because you are bringing in a million dollars with you. I would end "anchor baby mommas". The kids stays, but the parents leave. The parents lose all rights to the child (as they are criminals), or they can take the child back with them, and child loses citizenship. They don't get it both ways.  

I would end any process where-by taxpayer money is sent to other countries to buy their co-operation/friendship.

Versy I agree but that will never happen. They have always taken it out of our paychecks and always will unless we have a revolution. We've dug ourselves into a hole we'll never get out of. If you have grandchildren like me they're already $200,000 in debt. The dollar is going to crash and I believe it will be soon.

I was a Ron Paul supporter. As to why "hardly anyone" voted for him.  I know for a fact that in our state, the republican party, basically had to resort to illegal tactics to remove any chance of him or any other candidate to be nominated. I was there and I participated at the district, county, and state levels ( well I was not allowed to go in the state convention).   As far as I am concerned, Mitt "bought" the MS nomination. Given the speech that followed the nomination, I am pretty sure I know exactly what the plan was. Secure the nomination by any means needed, then make attempt to bring back the excluded and crushed  voters, by saying " we know we screwed you, but really its all about beating Obama". ( that really is nearly a quote from the county convention that I attended)
As we saw that plan failed utterly, and the high dollar crooks that stole the nomination, were completely taken aback. Many very rich folks in my state lost tons of money, as they planned on a Mitt win to get back on their investment.  In the mean time, the republican party have now made ENEMIES of those they screwed. Its beyond, turning them democrat.. its what can I do to destroy this party, type anger.

PS: Ron Paul, would have gotten a much higher percentage of the nomination, except for the very dirty, very rotten crap the republican party pulled.  NRP -chose Romney and that was that. All the conventions in every state was a show... not real. No other nominee had a chance, no matter public opinion, no matter how the voters voted.

What didn't you know... a party is a private concern. They make all their rules. And you thought voters decided anything!!!

yes, we are the policemen of the world.

Our city has cops, the people pay them
the county has cops, the people pay them
WHO is paying US to police the world?
Youre also wrong about a "Head in the sand" approach. He would counter threats, but he wouldnt be the cop. YOU really dont know much about him except what the media, who were bent on destroying him, want you to know,
If the Bubs really wanted to beat Bammy, all they had to do was unite behind ron paul,No, the game is to hand the ball to bammy. The globalists run the whole darned game,
