Abolishing the Department of Education
Abolish the Minimum Wage
Abolish Social Security, Welfare, etc.

if you abolished minimum wage, people could be payed .05 $ per hour, great idea rolleyes

leaving the UN * pretends to think * you know, the UN headquarters is here ? ( i think ) the UN is ere to SUPPORT international co-operation ? do you want to alienate the USA ?

get rid of Social security=babies stealing identities. bad idea.
or, just find a better way to deal with it, genius

Internation Cooperation is not my first goal. The USA will never be alienated. WE bankroll 70% of the UN's funds, and the UN has become useless, lets stop wasting money.

Also, Minimum Wage aids inflation and causes businesses to leave. Why does China make everything...they have no minimum wage! We must bring jobs back to the United States.

Social Security was meant to be temporary and only as a supplement to monthly income, it has become far more then that. We must get rid of the system that was not created to last more then 30 years.

I'd be assasinated for mine as well, though we are on opposite ends of the spectrum. Being the capitalist I am, I really cannot agree with any of the top four, for they all stifle economic growth. Welfare should be the responsibility of the people to help each other through Charity. Prison reform, I think our prisons are too light to be honest. We should make prison a terrifying place, no windows, food should be bare essentials only, no television, etc. And I want to know how we can fairly give equal funding for students. What about those students who need more help? What about those students who wish to participate in higher level courses?

1. fairtax. not flat tax, I would also legalize violence for proponents of flat income taxes... but seriously, fairtax.

2. gay marriage: the government must either recognize gay marriage or stop recognizing straight marriage.

3. Gun control: in states' hands

4. Social security: most of reform through Fairtax, follw a Bush-like two-tier plan.

5. Make the Department of education a process, not an agency, work towards the patented DarthNader private-but-public-with-no-vouchers ( if you want the details, pm me) system:create agency roughly 1/128th size of old fde to ensure the system runs smoothly.

6. Abolish the Dea, give its functions to the Baft, legalize all non-cocaine based drugs. Roll drinking and gambling ages back to 18.

7. NAFTA, CAFTA, SAFTA, everything you tack an -afta on to.

8. systematic renaming of anything named after Ronald Reagan, posthumously change his middle name to Satan ( ok, I might want to sleep on that one if I ever want to get elected)

9. nationalize my healthcare, bitches.

Wow, trying to keep us alone again, eh? Yeah, good luck with that. When the US starts to lag behind in foriegn affairs and achievements, we'll see how long that lasts. More gun rights? Yay, I can get shot while walking out my door... Again. Cutting foreign aid? Good, then at least the third world countries will like to kick our asses too. It's going to look like Rome all over again.

Rome fell because of a lack of governmental organization at a time when it was most needed. The U.S. Empire will fall, if not now, then pretty soon
