Supplying him with 50,000 more troops from global bases[/quote]
I can just hear the Great Leader Kim Jong expressing his support now. Lock the front door and leave the back door wide open. We have other commitments.
quote]Enact single payer universal health care by extending Medicare to all, doubling Medicare payroll tax and a 1% national sales tax. Employees will expect compensation in wage adjustments
Raise taxes, put more small businesses out of business, and make others move overseas. Great plan. We need less in our pay checks, so when jobs dry up we can work for peanuts for the employers that stay.
Gasoline tax will be increased 5 cents
You love those taxes, huh? Why not just make everyone that's 18 and older (businesses and organizations too)a one time offer, they must choose for the rest of there life to either be taxed and receive the benefits of the Democrats or the less taxes and fewer government cheese handouts of the Republicans. My prediction? Those well-meaning left wing celebrities and philanthropists will be feeding and providing health care to all the freeloaders that chose the left. We'll then see who puts their money were their mouth is.
Negotiate with NATO to increase its quota of combat troops in Afghanistan and issue an ultimatum to the Taliban and al Qaeda to surrender, including bin Laden, or be obliterated
Half the NATO forces there NOW refuse to take an active aggressive part in the fighting.
So your prepared to invade Pakistan? That's where the Taliban and al Qaeda are. They would love the support they would receive from 100's of millions of Pakistanis should the US invade. Your gonna need more than those 50,000 other troops. FDR had 12 million in uniform by the end of the war to defeat the Axis with a much smaller population than modern Pakistan.
Forcefully broker a deal with Israel and Palestine to end hostilities or forgo US aid to both.
You can't cause your fighting World War III in Pakistan. But suppose you could, try breaking up a fight between two pit bulls and let me know how that works for you.
Ten percent of Iraqi oil production to be exported to the US as payback.
This is just a plan to justify the lefts cries that we invaded for the oil, which couldn't have been farther from the truth, to their great dismay.
Congress will disband earmarks, replacing it with equitable revenue sharing for legitimate state needs.
Agreed, but the majority in Congress do not want this Democrat and Republican. Give me one example when they did something the people wanted but they opposed? Not an earmark, but 70% of the people in the US want the US to open drilling here, seems like a no brainier doesn't it?
A $1-10 surtax on every tax return for the purpose of mandatory campaign expense; and each private exercise of “freedom of speech” limited to $500 per candidate—no exceptions. All surreptitious angles such as 527s will be outlawed.
Again with a tax on the people that pay taxes. But I like where your going with it (except paying for free speech, that should be free always, rich or poor). How about the the public pay 0 on their tax return. The candidates pay for their own advertisements, limited to $1 million (that should mean lots of campaign buttons and bumper stickers). The gov can give them each two, one hour specials to make their pitch to the people (one after securing the nomination, one two weeks before the election) and three public debates.
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and attribute this article to pining for the good old days of the depression and WWII, a time when people gave more, ejected less and mostly whinnied to themselves in at all.
But here are some of the things FDR (a great salesman) promised about social security:
Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social
Security (FICA) Program. He promised:
1.) That participation in the Program would be
Completely voluntary,
2.) That the participants would only have to pay
1% of the first $1,400 of their annual
Incomes into the Program,
3.) That the money the participants elected to put
I nto the Program would be deductible from
Their income for tax purposes each year,
4.) That the money the participants put into the
Independent "Trust Fund" rather than into the
General operating fund, and therefore, would
Only be used to fund the Social Security
Retirement Program, and no other
Government program, and,
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees
Would never be taxed as income.
A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have.
