If ya were the president of US?
- Thread starter Y-S
- Start date
First thing I'd do is execute Klean Kut. Then I would execute all members of the republican and democratic parties. I would also execute every single soldier who willingly joined the Iraq/Afghan wars and are proud of their "work." The lives of those who admit that they were fucking idiots will be spared and only sent to prison labor camps.
Next, take into public ownership, under democratic working class control and management, the top 500 corporations, banks, and insurance and finance houses that dominate the economy.
End the rule of profit and implement a socialist society to meet the needs of all.
Massive public spending increase for health, housing, education, transportation, childcare, leisure, and community facilities, paid for by taxes on the rich.
Cancel the national debt with no payment to the big investors. Use the money to rebuild the inner cities and the infrastructure under union conditions and wages.
Implement free, high quality public education for all, from pre-school through college.
Implement free, socialized medicine under democratic control.
Implement immigrant rights; papers for all.
End police brutality and harassment through labor-community committees to control all aspects of public safety.
Implement a minimum wage of $12.50/hour or $500 per week minimum guaranteed income.
No workfare or prison labor; guaranteed training and jobs for all.
A 30-hour workweek without loss of pay.
Major investment in a cheap, accessible, integrated, safe, publicly-owned transportation system that meets the needs of people and the environment.
Scrap anti-union laws. For democratic trade unions controlled by their members. Full-time union officials should be elected, and receive the wage of an average worker.
Solidarity with the struggles of workers in other countries. Workers of the world unite!

I would add an admenment to the Consitution decarling that each and every American recieves basic needs.
Then I would cut military spending drastically and using that money to re-build the houses in New Orleans. Isn't the responisbility of the well fare of the people on the goverment? isnt that what the Constitution says?
I would slowy replace the free market with a fixed market, and provided goods based upon the needs of community and provide universal health care and education grants to all Americans, using the excess profit of major corporations.
I would eliminate the representive form of office. All votes must be direct opinions of the people not of a representive that can be manipulated.
I would issue a ban on guns, becaues it is a violation of the Constitution of to carry a gun, atleast how I interperet it.
Plus when all Americans recieves each according to his needs then the use of guns will be unnecessary.
I would release all the prisioners from Guantanmo bay.
I would change the cirriculum in the education system, no longer will preparing students for working in the working class, each student will be at liberty to study and explore subjects of their choice. So post secdondary education would be molded around the concept of each according to their happiness.
I would place heavy burdens would be placed upon the pharmaceutical companies and encourage natuaral sources of medicens and suggest a strong emphsis on cures not temporary remedies.
I would model my health care stratagey around the Cuban and Canadian systems.
I would release all political prisioners.
I would re design the flag.

Trying to keep this as reasonable as possible.....
- National Minimum Wage immediately raised to $7.50, then tied to Inflation + 1%.
- Broader rights for companies to not allow Unionizing (The Wal-Mart amendment to my Labor act).
- Comprehensive health care for everyone 18 or under, extending until graduation for College students.
- "Freak accident" insurance for all, i.e., amputations, bird flu, earthquakes---but not including check-ups, braces, and so on.
- Money for proper burial of every domestic-born citizen (sorry New Americans/Foreigners).
- Huge incentives for hybrid vehicles, including tax breaks, tuition wavers, and whatever else it takes.
- Roll back Military spending to reasonable levels (not sure how specific I could be here.)
- Put into place an 11% national sales tax; for all those considered to be in "poverty" or poor (~$30K or less), all food, clothing, cleaning, etc. items will be exempt. For those on Welfare/S.S., all items exempt.
- Push to make both Abortion and Marijuana a State-by-State decision.
I'm spent. All i know is, lots of spending and hopefully the 11% tax (or whatever the percentage ended up being) would pay for most of it, without hurting Poor people.

Basically, CB, and 206 had the better ideas in my opinion. Something along those lines is what I would do if I were president.
One thing I would add though is that everyone has a chance, before and/or during high school, to study their own people's history instead of/or including US history. For example, Mexicans study Mexican history. Just for the simple fact that people who don't know where they come from(especially Hispanics) tend to really irritate me.

That was one of the first things I thought of, lol.....
I'd pull the troops the fuck out of Iraq. I would probably stop giving out so much fucking money to other countries and put it back into our own country since there are many parts that are like third world countries. I'd try to legalize marijuana, shrooms, opium, maybe lsd too.
Oh yeah, I'd try to make sure the US people understand there are more than 2 parties, since most people dont' fucking know-and I've seen people on here talk about how there are only 2 parties, very...very pathetic.
PEOPLE THAT THINK THAT CAN MAKE THIS HAPPEN ARE DUMB TO SAY THE LEAST, HOW WOULD YOU GO ABOUT STRIPPING EVERYONE IN THE U.S OF THEIR ARMz? THERE WOULD BE A HUGE BLACK MARKET AND CRIME WE HAVE NEVER HEARD OF, FOR THE ONE PERSON THAT WOULD GIVE UP THEIR GUN THERE WOULD BE 20 THAT WOULD KEEP THEIR GUN TO ROB, STEAL, RAPE, AND MURDER. I WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU WOULD DEAL WITH THIS INSANE IDEA?
LMAO!
I would agree, but most people have the idea in their head that democrat and republican are the only parties you can vote for. When in fact there's the socialist party, communist party, independent party, green party, etc etc etc. Dude that I voted for (david cobb) got arrested for trying to enter the presidential debate and the dude was a fuckin candidate. It's obvious to me that there is an agenda and that most peolple are too fucking stupid to see it.
But you are right, no matter who wins (democrat vs. republican) it's pretty much the same.
thats dumb, u wanna learn the history of mexico either do it on your own time or go to school in mexico. cuz if there was mexican history, then i would want sicilian history, and the asians would want asian history, and the russians russian history, ect. Plus most kids cant even remember us history let alone us history and that of thier roots.
