1. Nationalize the utilities, all energy corporations and natural resources and re-dole them out in the form of cooperatives that actively encourage alternative energy production, banking, etc.
2. Federalize this place -- meaning get rid of the federal income tax, and cut the military by about 50 percent, close down all federal departments. Charge everyone a very small flat tax for federal government ops. It's states from now on. But all states are still subject to the U.S. Constitution, which, by decree, shall only be interpreted by the new "supreme court:" One right-wing whack-job, two libertarians (one left, one right), one Green, one moderate Republican, one moderate Democrat, and three very centrist centrists.
3. Arrest and try the Bush administration, the neocons in the Pentagon and top loonie religious leaders for insurrection, treason, war crimes and insufferable bullshit peddling.
4. Fire all current Senators and Representatives and install term limits on all of them. Anyone who has any interest in a corporation -- holding, managing, former or present consulting, relatives, etc., shall be UNABLE to hold public office.
5. Get IRV for every election, and limit all campaigning for federal and state positions to $2 million.
6. Re-instate the fairness doctrine.
7. Return government-held lands in the west to Indian tribes, and all national parks to the Audubon Society, the Sierra Club, et. al.
8. End the public school system, but collect state taxes to use as vouchers, so EVERYONE can go to private schools of their choosing.
9. Apologize to the world, and stop stealing natural resources.
10. Launch an agressive campaign to find sustainable alternative energy sources, and pay people who use wind or solar power.
can I have a bonus?
11. Clear up this first amendment once and for all: Freedom of religion is freedom FROM religion, and the "separation of church and state" MEANS exactly that.
*I realize that Democrats might not agree with all of this stuff, but this is a "thinking site," no?
***oh, and I forgot -- corporations are stripped of human status in the courts and there are no such things as subsidies and bailouts.
