FIX OUR GOVT

Somethings that need fixing are hard to see.

Take the National ID card with biometrics as an example.

There are direct links to the private sector and investment opportunities and what our govt imposes through legislation:

The cards Americans will have to carry, the database of biometrics on every American that someone will have to maintain, and the electronic equipment every American business will have to buy to conduct the biometrics check on every potential employee.

Perhaps one method that could thwart politicoes from being motivated to invest in companies that benefit from laws and standards they (govt officials) try to put in place is to not allow private investors who make; one example; over $75K per year to invest in these companies.

Another example is to help Americans who make less than ; another number just plucked from air; $40K per year able to know about, have priority, and invest their tax return (time the award of the govt contract with the tax return) in the companies who benefit from mandated govt contracts.

Just some ideas to try and help fix an unseen problem in America.

ME Vs. OBAMA

Okay it is me Vs. all three of these "viable" squares running for president.

Gas prices? Here I go.

I would revoke the oil companies tax breaks which gives me about $1.5 billion in spending cash on the American people and economy each year for the next ten years.

I would tell the manufacturers of auto's inside the USA to get ready to sell hybrids and any other electric car they can produce by the first quarter of 2010.

Due to limited funds and supply, I would offer to double anyones 2009 tax return to buy a more economical fuel efficient car with their entire tax return on a first come first serve basis.

I would limit proifits to be made by the auto manufacturers to about 15-25% only and demand there be a prevailing wages for the US auto workers making these American hybrids.

This would help jump start a lessening of demand on US fuel consumption thus helping reduce the cost of gas as more people will start buying American made hybrids and help spur places like Michigan with jobs.

I would also deport the illegal aliens to further reduce the demand of gas, also push working classs wages higher via economic fundamentals, and also spurring a small business boom that caters to innovation as businesswould no longer be primarily based on who has the cheapest waged workers but instead who does it the best way properly.

I would also shift to a 20% reduction in the cost of electricty for residential and small businesses while increasing the cost of electricity about 20% for big businesses putting more spending money in the pockets of Americans and help spur investment by big businesses to invest in "green" electricity production helping spur a price reduction for private "less rich" citizens to also be able to invest in "green" electricty production.

Now go smoke a cigarette Obama and think about that while you prove that you have self esteem issues puffing away and getting cancer!

UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE

I just want to point out some things the media ignores about the universal healthcare discussions.

The candidates focus on the money that workers pay into healthcare; this is the carrot they dangle in front of the voters.

Don't forget that the employer matches what the worker pays.

With UHC the candidates talk about things like 'making businesses more competative in the world' and this is code for 'we aren't going to make the businesses pay into the healthcare system anymore' and businesses will put this money into their own pockets.

The candiates talk about 40 million uninsured Americans, but the media lets the candidates exclude the 10-20 million illegal aliens (which is a stat that is about 3 years old now and also when we look at the estimates from the last amnesty under Ronald Reagan that the govt estimates were 300% below the actual number of illegal aliens!).

The uninsured and illegal aliens do not pay enough into healthcrae to offset what corporations would no longer have to pay; thus this shortfall would be an increase in taxes when medicaid and social security is on the road to being bankrupt.

UHC has, in every country it has been implemented, caused wage stagnation or decreased wages for workers in the medical sector.

UHC causes wait times and this is in the best interest of the drug companies as these wait times will increase the amount of pharmacuticals needed to provide comfort until the actual medical procedure(s) can be done.

One aspect to why the healthcare costs have been increasing is the number of uninsured babies we allow to be born into our system as these uninsured procedures get the maximum billing rates and then cause everyone elses insurance cost to go up to recoup these charges.

Another aspect is when there are adverse effects from prescription drugs. I think the cost for adverse effects of prescribed drugs should be billed back to the pharmacutical companies as this requires more doctor visits and drives up the cost for insurance for everyone else also.

Another thing we could do instead is train more doctors and make college more affordable for everyone; like putting free basic college courses on the internet making the total cost to become a doctor to cost less.

Instead of UHC I would like to see a medical military branch converted from either the Marines or Army so that we use existing pentagon funds to provide basic medical care for the impoverished US citizens instead of raising taxes and letting corporations avoid paying for the benefit of healthcare.

IF THEY ONLY HAD A BRAIN!

If only McCain, Obama, Clinton, or Bush had a brain when it comes to managing our economy into fairness and in favor of working class citizens. They seem to have fundraising and campaigning cloaked in rhetoric down well enough.

Even Romnay isn't in tuned with our economy as he is more capable of increasing profit margings and that means CHEAP LABOR WAS GOOD IN HIS OPINION UNTIL HE FLIP-FLOPPED INTO VAGUE OPPOSITON OF ILLEGAL ALIENS!

Things that are happening now are things like mortgages and other credited debt that have been sold long ago are now becoming worthless (no longer a decent return when they turn the APR into their currency) thanks to the destruction of our dollar.

China and Japan are sitting on a mountain of our debt that is declining and this worries me greatly as China is quickly building their military.

What would our image be if China took over that little island we are contractually obligated to defend? How about in the Muslim world when viewed alongside Osama's "paper tiger" declarations?

Also NAFTA AND CAFTA are ignored by all three front runners when it comes to the devaluation of the US greenback. Imports are slowing having the devalued dollars' caused inflation to creep onto the shelves of stores and Americans will need higher wages to pay the bills as these inflationary impacts also hit places like the supplies used by the electric company, and phone, and cable, and water, etc

Unfortunately the media dissected the fact that US working class wages are lower then what they should be thanks to the illegal aliens; and also that self employment opportunites have been lost as well due to the illegal aliens; but too many Americans got conned into thinking that the illegal aliens issue is a civil rights issue for the illegal aliens instead of the American worker.

MEDIA ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL!

The media ignores issues that are unknowingly important to the public, take both their stances on trade agreements like NAFTA.

They both agree that we need to get these other countries to adopt tougher environmental and labor standards to help American workers.

But what will this do for us really?

It will have these additional costs added to the price of things we buy from them; in short it causes an INFLATIONARY impact.

In addition it will not result in their workers getting paid higher wages so their workers will still not be able to afford US exports.

The labor standards they talk about are working conditions, hours in a work week and child labor standards, NOT FOREIGN WORKER'S WAGES.

As long as we have to compete with foreign wages our manufacturing base will continue to diminish; and universal healthcare is NOT enough of an impact to cause a swing in direction for our manufacturing base as the media allows Clinton to pretend.

Then there is the fact that all three of the front runners are pro amnesty which the media refuses to LABEL as INSOURCING and degrades US working class wages.

NAFTA SHAFTA CAFTA BLAH

They (Clinton and Obama) argue over NAFTA and ignore the illegal alien problem which has to do with the economy, healthcare costs, education quality, AND NATIONAL SECURITY.

If all these illegal aliens are good for our economy then sending them back would be good for their economy?

Sending them back would push US wages upward for working class folks; construction, cashiers in convenience stores, retail workers, food service industry workers, cleaning services, landscapers, etc.

Sending them back would improve our education system and reduce healthcare inflationary aspects.

I understand that we can't snap our fingers and have them all disappear, but we can solve any problem for the American people.

Once the illegal aliens are given the right to stay forever is the moment the next economic depression is irreversable.

10 THINGS FOR AMERICA

1. Paid lunch hour for all workers earning an average less than $20 an hour and full time; which gives either more overtime for workers or more time with the family.

2. All Police officers working will wear a wire and record conversations for any possible future court needs for both the police and the citizens helping prevent abuse of authority by police and to better enforce possible fines/sentences against the citizen.

3. Use existing defense funds (no new taxes!) to transition the US Army from a fighting force to a Medical Military Branch that will be capable of being deployed into combat but will also provide basic medical care to uninsured US citizens.

4. Stop illegal aliens without imposing a retinal and/or DNA database and constant verification of all US citizens living in the USA just to catch the retinals and DNA we are looking for to deport.

5. Free online education from grades seven to all possible college accredited courses accessible to all US citizens at anytime during their lifetime.

6. Move minimum wage to between $9 and $10 an hour and start the slow process of deporting the illegal aliens by garnishing their wages to pay for their own plane ticket home.

7. Make having abortions illegal (exceptions would be life threatening, rape, etc.) as people know how babies are made just like they know they shouldn't drive drunk.

8. Legislate a price regulation for electricity costs and cause a (give or take) 20% increase for larger businesses and a (give or take) 20% reduction for residential electrical costs.

9. Re-establish the US automotive industry. Do not allow foreign auto makers to produce cars to be imported into America but instead mandate that they make all automobiles have the first 25% and final 40% of manufacturing to be done inside the USA's borders.

10. Establish a govt sponsored online forum for upcoming legislation for the genral public to point out aspects and concerns and also mandate that elected officials participate in the forum and answer the highest rated questions presented by the public concerning the legislation.
