If I were elected president, I would be a One-termer and here’s why:
I’d lobby congress to raise taxes on EVERYONE for the next decade. I’d tax the rich and corporations more then I would tax the average person. That includes a tax hike on corporations who send jobs overseas (to the tune of 40%).
I’d cut spending and end both wars immediately. I’d give Iraq and Afghanistan a fair warning that we are leaving you to govern your own countries. If you attack us, again Iraq and Afghanistan will be nothing more than holes in the ground. Enough of this nation building crap.
I’d cut aid to Israel and Pakistan until they can agree to a peaceful solution of their borders.
I’d invest in knew energy solutions so we can save our money and not spend it on foreign oil. We need to stop making the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela and other places rich.
Of course, no one will agree with what I’m doing and I’d most likely be voted out of office when my 4 years were up. But at least I’d have the pleasure of knowing that my actions will improve the debt situation in this country. People always blame politicians for all their problems but are unwilling to give up their programs to help fight the debt. Am I wrong??
