Featured Replies

If you were to run for President, what would your major issues be? What party would you run for? What would strengthen your resume?

 

And finally, what kinda dirt would people try to use against you?

 

This should be fun

OK, you asked for it. I'd combine both parties and make just one with the Bible as our source. I could make a list of all the things that I'd do but maybe y'all would get the idea, after all I'm the Pres.

Would you also expel all non-Christians from the country? Because the America you seem to be desiring is an awful exclusionary one.

I would run on:

 

1- No taxes on indivudals earning under 30K of Joint Returns under 60K

2-Higher taxes for indivudals earning over 200k, but exclude small businesses.

3-Tax breaks for Research and Development & increased hiring.

4-10,000 Fines and 6 months mandatort jail time for hiring illegals. Per Illegal

5-Still penalties for American Corporations that outsource jobs but have offices in American territories.

6-Fair trade which limits imports to countries that do not sell American goods at the same volume as they export to the US

7-Incease trade schools for those not attending college / give tax breaks to corporations who co-op with these trade schools.

8-Limit unemployment to 4 weeks and provide TAMPER PROOF FOOD STAMPS

to the unemployed, who will have an option to attend a trade school or find another job within those four weeks.

9-Increase minimum wage to 10.00 hr living wage.

10-Term Limits to attract our best and brightest and prevent corruption and career politians.

11-Make health care mandatory, like other insurances are. At minimm an indivudal must carry a 1000.00 deductible. Cost should be driven down due to the 40 million that must join. This should be marketed competitively thru insurance companies directly to indivudals, not thru companies annd corporations. 300,000,000 policies on the table.

12-Oversite committees for every federal agency that spends tax dollars.

13-Leave NATO and th UN and form a steering comittee to form a NEW world agencie that acceped ALL NATIONS who would have to provide military personel based on size, capitol for undeveloped nations, emergencies and acts of God, and open inspections of all outlaw weapons. If you don't join, you don't trade with the rest of the civilized world.

Well if I ever do run, this is going to come back and haunt me.....

 

1)Do whatever I can to limit and eventually overturn Roe vs. Wade.

2)Give whatever financial breaks or windfalls I can to organizations that set up plans to help feed the hungry.

3)Get government out of the business of things that they shouldn't be in business for. No more artist grants. If it is important to help the 'starving artist' let Tom Cruise take some of his $20 mil per movie and set up a foundation to support them.

4)Give major tax breaks to any company that finds us alternate sources of energy to be used in place of oil.

5)Shore up the military and the police in ways that need to be.

6)Turn education over to the states. No more funding or requirements coming from the federal government.

7)Stop Death Tax below $1 millon of inheritance.

8)Clean up what can be seen on 'free' television.

9)Scrap the intern/page programs cause it gets too many politicians in trouble. (j/k on this one)

10)Let the market determine rates with a minimum around $7.00. Like most things good employees will get the pay and a high minimum wage only rewards the employees that are 1)poor employees or 2)

I would run on:

 

1- No taxes on indivudals earning under 30K of Joint Returns under 60K

2-Higher taxes for indivudals earning over 200k, but exclude small businesses.

As most Democrats, DD, I noticed you had no plan for Iraq or the war on terror?:p :lol:

No Jim...Couldn't do that but we have the Ten Commandments and prayer in schools.

Hahaah....you should be glad I'am not running on Iraq.

  1. Flat tax rate. Everyone regardless if income pays a certain percentage of their income in taxes. At the same time elimiante all deductions. Everyone pays their share.
  2. Eliminate employer withholding and go to direct billing for taxes. Withholding gives the impression that it's not really your money that the government is taking and makes taxes less painful. Writing a check once or twice a year will make sure people realize it is their money.
  3. Drastically lower income tax by instituting use taxes. (National sale tax, tolls on interstates etc.).
  4. Revamp Social Security by allowing younger workers to invest a protion of THEIR money in outside investments.
  5. Continue to provide humanitarian assistance around the world but completely cut off all forms of aid to countries that show any hostility to the US at all, up to and including Mexico when their politicians will not respect our borders.
  6. Maintain a strong standing army so they every little regime doesn't think they can act against us without repercussions.
  7. Cut the salaries of all elected officials. Let the ones that actually want to serve (rather then get rich) do so. Along those lines do away with the sweet pension plan those in congress now enjoy. Career politicians are a bane to our society.
  8. Fund research into alternative fuel sources while at the same time allowing further use of the US's own oil supply (ANWR, off shore etc.). Institute MASSIVE fines for exploration companies that cause environmental damage through neglegence.
  9. Mandatory retirement age for Congress, Senate and Judges.

How do you determine that, if you're earning $29,000 a year and paying no rent bc you live with family, does the guy making $31-34,000 out on his own suffer sense he's clearing less than the guy at 29 thou a year after taxes being paid out. What would you use to determine this?

 

I'm not saying it's bad(so don't think you're defending yourself), it'd help me out I'm just curious what you'd suggest in an in depth annalysis of how it'd be broken down.

Have to draw the line somewhere. It's like calulating your taxes then looking at the chart and seeing that you 15.00 over and it's gonna cot you 100.00 extra bucks. And if your earning 29,000. and living with your family you should be paying rent for their hospitality. And at 30,000. and up it would only esculate slightly. The big jumps would be at say, 100,000. and 200,000.

1) Everyone pays some kind of income tax in my administration; we'll call it a "privledge of living in america" tax

2) Congress gets pulled into the social security system, that way they will work on fixing it.

3) Tax on dividends and capital gains stays as is

4) Top tax rate goes up 2% points

5) Education cut from federal budget

6) Immigration laws are enforced

7) We're out of the UN

8) Able bodied welfare recipients work somewhere or attend skills building classes

9) Mandatory military service for a year

 

Party-guess

What would strengthen my resume? A plan. But trust me, I have one I just can't tell it to you.

Dirt used against me? I'm as pure as a newborn baby, of course.

:sssh:, No I wish, though I'd venture to say I know some who are. Just curious your take on things my man.

No Jim...Couldn't do that but we have the Ten Commandments and prayer in schools.

 

Overturning the Supreme Court, are we?

Hangman, I'd try if President or change the retirement age.
