Ok,
If I was your President,

1. I would change the taxes to a flat rate of 10% reguardless of what you made, with no sneaky ways to make millions and pay nothing.
this would actually help the budget, taking from those who cann afford it not those who dont have it.

2.I would fund a healthcare system, so that everyone had the right to medical help. I would bring in a healthcare card, the same as in australia that makes your scripts almost free if you are on a low income.



only congress can levy tax laws. only congress can fund health care or anything else. some of you folks would do well to read the constitution. says what the president can and can't do.


Well what is the point of being president..
And I really have no interest in the constitution the question was what would I do.
Honestly is all of congress wealthy? Or is it like a jury where it is randomly picked, because if all of congress is wealthy then their is absolutly no point in being President as you really have no control over anything.

In reality you are probably controlled by those who are ruling behind the scenes..

And I dont see why our country which has only 20 odd million tax payers can do without huge taxes when a country with so many people and who brings in a huge tax amount cannot offer the same..

WE HAVE WENT TO S`H`I`T HERE in this Country,,as a Nation and as human beings with EACH OTHER...
Money and all their lobbies and the greed of the ones we elect to be who they SAID they would be while holding that office.
My THOUGHTS as to what wrong and WHY,,,and WHAT WE SHOULD BE THINKING AND DOING...
BECOME ONE NATION UNDER GOD TOGETHER AGAIN UNITED FOR THE WELL BEING OF EVERY MAN WOMAN AND CHILD LIVING AND GROWING HERE IN A PEACEFUL, FRUITFUL SOCIETY OF NEIGHBORS WHO BELIEVE IN EACH OTHER AND WHAT WE CAN DO EVERYDAY TO INCREASE ITS BEAUTY, ITS PEOPLE,
AND ITS RESPECT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD..
Every time I scan my FM radio and pop in on ALMOST ANY talk radio program,,ITS EVIL,,,ITS AGAINST SOMEONE,,OR SOME GROUP OR SOME POLITICAL ORGANIZATION,,THAT THEIR SPONSORS WANT THE NATION TO FALSELY SEE THROUGH THEIR PROPAGANDA AND ONE SIDED ISSUES TO DRAW A VERY DIFFERENT MEANING TO WORDS USED BY THE ONES "THEY" WANT US TO DIS-LIKE OR HATE...
AND PEOPLE BELIEVE IT???
WE FALL PREY TO LIES FED TO US BY THESE NET-WORKS OF POWER WHO MONIES JUST BUY,,,,
WE are treated like weak-minded sheep ,,led to wherever THEY want our minds to go?
Just take the act of what was first proposed as a national health-care bill,,uniting us ALL into one health-care program that WE HAD A CHOICE of how much WE WERE INVOLVED IN IT.
Folks IT WAS A GREAT IDEA and CONCEPT for us to be involved within.
YET,,THE MEDICAL INDUSTRIES KNEW IF THAT HAPPENED THEY WOULD LOSE A HELL OF A LOT OF MONIES TO IT,,,
SO,,THEY FLOODED ALL KINDS OF ADS AND LOBBIES EVERYWHERE TO SHUT-IT-DOWN,BEFORE IT COULD EVEN START,,,by the time a bill was actuarially PASSED ON IT,,,,it was a drop of water in the ocean,,,as for ALL THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN TO EVERY AMERICAN THROUGH TIME AND INVOLVEMENT....
THEY USED SCARE TACTICS to FEED the Nation so we would THINK,FEEL,BELIEVE that it was going to be SO MUCH MORE COSTS OUT OF US TO HAVE THEM TAKE....
So it went to HELL,,as any REAL WITHDRAW FROM OUR HEALTH CARE COSTS..
FOLKS,,,,WHY THE HELL ARE WE TRYING TO FIND A PLAN OF ANY KIND,
INSTEAD OF MAKING THE HEALTH CARE INDUSTRY JUSTIFY ALL THE MASSIVE EXPENSES THAT THEY """CHARGE"""" US????????
OVER-SIGHT PEOPLE!!!!!!
REVIEW AND PROVE THEIR REASONING FOR THEIR PRICES AND COSTS TO ADMINISTER????????????
A BAND-AID while in the Hospital stay,,25.00 dollars??? "REALLY"?
WHY?
WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT THAT,,,because its kept from us seeing it..?
THEY have US ALL FOCUSED AWAY FROM THAT ISSUE OF HEART and TRUTH?
NOW they are TRYING to get us out of having Social Security,,and medicare??????????????????????//
Making EVERYONE feel and SEE IT as a GREAT DEMAND ON OUR MONIES WEEKLY TO PAY INTO IT,,,
have THEY explained WHY THEY HAVE MIS-USED THAT FUND AND THE MONIES THEY HAVE TAKEN FROM IT,,SINCE ITS START??
NO,,THEY HAVEN'T.
HOW ABOUT THIS,,,,CAN THEY JUSTIFY WHERE ALL THE MONIES GOING INTO IT "NOW" ARE REALLY GOING TO????
WHAT ABOUT OVER-SIGHT ON THAT?
WHERE IS ALL THE MONIES FROM LOTTERIES GOING TO???
I MEAN HEY,,,REALLY???
BREAK IT DOWN FACT ORALLY ON PAPER TO EACH DEPARTMENT ITS GOING INTO AND SHOW US,,PROVE IT?
AND WE ALL ASSUME ITS GOING WHERE ITS SUPPOSE TO,,,BUT IS IT???
ALL THE SELLS FROM ESTATES LOST TO THE GOVERNMENT THROUGH A DEATH AND MONIES OWED TO MEDICARE BY THEM?
LETS SEE THE BREAK-DOWNS AND THE REAL PEOPLE WHO ARE PROFITING THROUGH THESE BRANCHES OF OUR GOVERNMENT OFFICES???
THE government BAILED OUT Wall Streets BAD INVESTING COMPANIES,
YET WE THE PUBLIC LOST OUR HOMES,,,DID ""THEY GO UNDER?? NO
BUT THOUSANDS LOST THEIR HOMES?
DID THEY ""STOP" DOING ILLEGAL SWAPS?,,,,NO,,THEIR "STILL" BACK DOING THEM THERE?????
PEOPLE,,,we are being lead into decisions based solely on the false misrepresentations given by the media's through the acts of POWER who control this Nations financial Institutions and control the massive money markets we invest into...
ALL FOR THEIR GAINS and OUR LOSS....
Our PRESIDENT HAS LITTLE AND I MEAN VERY LITTLE CONTROL OF WHAT DICTATES THE ACTS WITHIN THIS NATION,,,,,BECAUSE MONEY,,,AND THE ONES Who's GREED, THEIR WAYS INTO OUR LIVES THROUGH THAT,,,
just USE US,,as PAWNS in a giant CHESS GAME,,,for their pleasures and profits...
PLEASE,,TRY TO LOOK OUTSIDE THIS NATIONS FIXED BOX WE ONLY HEAR AND SEE THROUGH! before WE LOSE ALL OUR TRUSTED RELATIONSHIPS WITH EACH OTHER AND OUR GOVERNMENT,,,,WE NEED EACH OTHER AND WE ARE EACH OTHERS KEEPERS OF LIFE AND WELL BEING..for US ALL to survive,,as we have for two hundred years here...

[/quoteThats very true,,,but from everyone I seem to be hearing talk,,,,its THEM,,complaining about ALL THEY DON'T WANT TO PAY FOR SOMEONE ELSE,,,,,:angry: LIKE THIS IS A NEW IDEA OF OUR LIVES LIVING HERE IN THE USA....THATS always been our ways and our prides,,NOT OUR TRYING TO GET OUT OF OUR SUPPORT for THIS NATION TO HAVE FUNDS TO DO THAT WITH...

I'm NOT a Political man,,BUT I MIGHT NOW BE CHANGING THAT THOUGHT!

WE need to ACT and SPEAK-UP,,,Not just continue to roll over to others ways for US ALL to quickly CHANGE our entire structure of life so as THEY can NOT BE A PART OF THE NATIONS HELP AS A WHOLE,,but be ALL ABOUT THEM AND THEIR MONEY,,,,,PLEASE...grrrrrr

you missed my point. many do act and all will say they act in the best interest of the country and yet we stay in this partisan loggerhead. sure, get political if that's your preference but be ready for those of an opposite political slant than you who consider YOU to be the problem. not me saying that but there'll be pleanty who will.

I'd get rid of all the freebies, no more entitlements! If your gonna live in this country you gotta have a fat bank account or go to work because the rent is due the 1st of the month, if you aint got no money or job then you aint go to worry about the rent because you won't be living here. As president I would sign an executive order forbidding any tax money to go to charities, welfare or special interest groups because that is what churches, salvation army and local organizations are for. Get rid of the BS and you'll save 100's of billions every year.

I've been RAISED to LOVE THIS COUNTRY....And I DO.
I was RAISED to have taxes taken out of my first check I ever received when I was in a school work program at age 14.
I was told it went for many programs that helped other and myself when I was old enough to receive that.
HOW IN THE WORLD CAN ANY COUNTRY WHO HAS MAINTAINED THEIR PRACTICES GENERATION AFTER GENERATION,,,JUST STOP,,,ALL THAT ANOTHER HUMAN BEING HAS LIVED TO KNOW AND RESPECT AS THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS COMING BACK TO THEM?
JUST KILL THE PEOPLE OVER FIFTY and LET THEM DIE OF DISEASE NOW,,,BECAUSE WE ""NOW"" HAVE HUMAN BEINGS GROWING TO SAY THE HELL WITH ALL OF YOU,,,,I WON'T ALL MY MONIES NOW AND LET ME INVEST MY OWN,,,,"ONLY" Because of your greed to feel ""you want it",,
instead of all the greed working to destroy a system that has survived far longer than ANY OF US HAS LIVED..WE SHOULD ALL BE WORKING TOWARD A PLAN THAT SELF FEEDS IT THROUGH MANY PROGRAMS AND GIVES EVERY AMERICAN THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE IT AT AN AGE WHEN THEY CAN STILL ENJOY IT ...

WE COULD HAVE A PROGRAM THAT STARTS FOR EVERY AMERICAN AT AGE FIFTY,IF THEY WORKED THIRTY YEARS IN THIS COUNTRY...
NOW THATS A PLAN,,THATS A GREAT LAND, THATS A PROGRAM TO WANT TO SEE AMERICA AS SOME PLACE TO LIVE AND GROW...BECAUSE ITS FARE AND
GIVING BACK TO ALL ITS CITIZENS ALL THAT THEY PUT INTO IT...
NOT,,JUST PLANS THAT STEAL IT FOR QUICK FIXES THAT FAIL AND THE MONIES NEVER RECOVERED...
LOOK AT ALL THE DRUG AND Alcohol ADDICTIONS AND THINK ""IF"" THOSE FOLKS HAD CONTROL OF THEIR MONIES ""NOW"".. WHAT THEY WOULD BE DOING WITH THAT??,,FEEDING THEIR HABITS....
THEN,,let that take its toll as they all blow their monies and after ten,,twenty years,,the rate of crime goes off the charts as so many will be distatuted and HAVE TO STEAL AND ROB TO SURVIVE..
NO ONE WOULD BE SAFE IN THAT WORLD AND KILLINGS WOULD BE FIFTY PERCENT HIGHER IN EVERY TOWN AND CITY...

First off I would declare myself Emperor Supreme.
2:Divide the nation into 3 equal parts with equal assets.
A:A conservative,capitalistic,constitutional state
B:A liberal,socialist,communist state
C:An anarchist state,no government whatsoever.
You would be free to chose which state to live in based on your ideology,or choose to stay put but you must live by the rules of state.
In the mean time I would be building giant ships,supertanker size.After 5 years do a tally on each respective state. The results would be self evident.The anarchists would more than likely be third world status,but still free and just leave them alone.The conservative states would would be overflowing with prosperity with a value on human life.The liberal state by that time would be imploding.They would have a gulag,slave camp system in a vain attempt to show that their system can really work.After untold millions being slaughtered and imprisoned,I would intervene in order to save the remaining people of the liberal states.They could join the conservatives and help in taking all the leaders of that failed ideology to the large ships and sent to the Marianna trench where it would be scuttled with much fanfare and celebration.

The church thing that was brought up, there should be no tax exemption for churches or any religious organizations. That is how many cults are hiding their money. The laws are suppose to have a separation of church and state, and having them tax free was fine for a while but they are out of hand now. If you wanted to give a religious organization a tax break then you could maybe do it for the first year or two as they get started, after that they should be financially stable enough to support themselves or they need to let someone else in their place...
