*HOW TO ALLOW AMERICA TO SURVIVE*
And give America back to Americans

Reducing regulations is primary since regulation is what stifles
commerce, the more regulations, the more it costs our economy. Most
regulations are used by existing businesses to reduce competition, and
competition would help us get out of this depression.

End the “war on drugs” make them legal(increase competition) and sold
at any drug store and push for prostitution to be legal too, that will
take the BIG money out of trafficking in drugs, and that will reduce the
gangs/dealers income and that should reduce the value of sex slaves and
hurt the human trafficking business income also. Why have illegal
prostitutes when there are so many legal tax paying prostitutes out there?

Create Bi-color money, Red money for inside the USA and Original Green
money outside the USA….. NOTHING BUT A COLOR/INK difference, and
suddenly sending red money home to Mexico would be useless as the RED
money would be useless in Mexico since the Banks and etc wouldn’t accept
it abroad.

The Drug dealers would have Red money that they need to exchange for
green money, makes it hard to do in large amounts and hard to spend and
more expensive to deal with….. that *makes Drugs less profitable* as
would dropping the income tax and installing a NATIONAL “NEW ITEM” SALES
TAX. *NOT* IMPLEMENTING A VAT TAX WHICH WILL HELP THE DRUG DEALERS and
illegals by making their tax free money leaving the country even more
valuable. If they had to buy/exchange the RED money for GREEN money then
you would charge the sales tax at that point.

Have the States Ratify an amendment withdrawing the 16th amendment…
Maybe enact something similar to the http://fairtax.org (Federal sales
tax) *BUT NOT A VAT or VALUE ADDED TAX* with the same amendment that
removes income tax and the IRS, preferably a Federal *NEW ITEM* sales tax.

This will reduce the number of tax crimes that people are in jails for
and it will give the people back their privacy. It will also promote
*GREEN* living where people will save more and waste less and buy second
hand and wear things out rather than discard and buy new. Then add the
amendment to it that if congress raises tax by 1% they are forced to cut
every single expenditure of the government by 3%.

Begin to draw down troops as needed from around the world. Put half
of our military bases along the southern Border to minimize the amount
of border that the Border patrol needs to watch, the military and
Federal trespassing laws will push the illegals to spaces between the
military bases.

This tax/border policy will financially assault the drug dealers and
hookers and other underground economy’s by forcing them to have to pay
tax when they *spend their money* , which will further reduce the
benefit of dealing in other illegal stuff. There needs to be one type
of dollar for use inside America and one type(color) of dollars for use
outside the USA. That will make it harder for smugglers to get money out
of the country and if they do spend it here then they will pay the sales
tax and that money is used to enforce the laws to catch smugglers. We
are “right now” taking money from peoples pay checks before they get
them and at the same time we don’t tax drug dealers or hookers and
illegals or others at all, we are penalizing the working Americans and
giving a bonus to illegal activity. Sales tax will also encourage saving
money rather than encouraging the leveraging of every dime you can
borrow like income tax does.

This will drive people in the underground economy to become part of the
real economy. It will stop most of the turf killings and end our
immigration problems with illegals stealing identities since they will
be paying tax(as sales tax). Offer illegals less welfare and charge them
tax and they won’t be so eager to come here and we won’t need to chase
them……

End Social Security/Medicare, grandfather it out of existence.

Pass an amendment to the constitution that makes all
*laws_and_treaties* have a seven year sunset clause, and it requires
that each law/treaty be voted by a separate roll call vote every seven
years to continue to be maintained in our laws.

There should also be some constitutional amendments to stifle congress’
borrowing and spending making it more difficult for that process.

Pass another amendment creating term limits on congress so the House
has 6 terms and the Senate has 2 terms, for a total of 12 years in
either side of congress. WE NEED TO STOP CONGRESS FROM PASSING FRIVOLOUS
LAWS TAXES AND BORROWING AND ENDLESSLY PRINTING MONEY.

To quit filling the jails with people over *social taboos* , we
need to take away congress’ ability to “social engineer” businesses or
private people by removing the governments tax code.

Government needs to spend 10% less every year until they meet the
income of the government. The best way, is to
*use_both_cutting_and_taxing* , the Congress should implement a rule to
force an across the board spending freeze and then across the board cuts
on the government spending, to do that we have to include a law in our
TAX amendment to the constitution that can’t be easily circumvented, to
force them to cut spending 3% for every 1% Congress raise taxes. So any
tax would result in automatic spending cuts using a baseline of 10% taxes.

And we need to give up our roll as the police man of the world, let
them fight their own fights. We need fewer crimes for people to be
committing, we need fewer police and prisons….the above drug and tax
plan…. will reduce police and prison needs by at least that 10% that
this plan suggested cutting each year.

NO welfare to corporations, and cut welfare to private people by 10%
each year until it is 10% of today’s cost. Any way you look at it, we’re
in DEEP for a long time.
