you wake up and you are a president, what will you do?

Edited by Churches: 5/12/2015 6:45:11 AMI would do my best to decriminalize drug use, push for no more minimum sentencing laws and pardon victimless offenders. Then recognize the legality of gay couples right to wed WITHOUT forcing anyone to participate; while also pushing laws aimed at free commerce (Have the right to refuse service for ANY reason). Downsize the IRS and push for tax reforms, hopefully leading to a simplified tax code for individuals ending in a 12%-18% flat tax rate; eliminate tax loopholes and credits for companies who outsource, instead offer incentives to keep business in state. Cut down military spending and work on reeling in the Empire, while eventually withdrawing ourselves from NATO. Also cut back welfare programs, and with the money try to invest into community job training, such as construction or other skill based labor, while also instituting drug tests and part-time service for recipients. Push for laws giving citizens more claws when it comes to convicting and prosecuting officers who violate peoples' civil rights, in hopes to deter power tripping turds from keeping their guns and badges. Also would apply to any government agency who violates someone rights, including the NSA, hopefully creating repercussions for the offenders. Eventually eliminate federal aid to ALL foreign countries: instead work on more beneficial trade agreements which would be better for both parties in the long run. Edit: Abolish the Affordable Care Act, due to the fact it was not what it was cracked up to be, and sold based on lies; Instead leave private insurance companies alone in the competitive market. Allow more than 2 parties participate in public debates, pushing for a broader selection of elected officials instead of just Red vs Blue same old. Just off the top of my head. AMA.
