If you were president for a day, what single thing would you do to make this a better country?

Question

you can pick any topic...economic, social, environment, etc.

Answer 1

Pull out of globalization until countries are willing to meet the same environmental and labor laws as the United States. I keep hearing people say well you can't put laws like that into trade bills, but how is it fair for us to say, you can ship to us without tariffs even though it is a hundred times cheaper for you because it doesn't matter if you just dump your pollutants into the lakes and air. It doesn't matter that you have children working in sweat shops and people getting killed in work environments we haven't seen here since the 1890's. Makes no sense to me.

Answer 2

I would give the senate and congress three wishes granted on the spot. I know without a doubt what those three wishes would be;
1) Bring home all troops
2) Raise the taxes on everyone especially the rich
3) Put a cap on all CEO salaries
The consequences for those wishes would be;
1) As with every country that has run from the war on terror, multiple attacks on the civilian population with mass deaths.
2) The rich would take their money and run, creating massive layoffs, plant closures and unemployment out the roof.
3) The most qualified people would work for competing companies in other countries therefore eliminating more jobs.

Reason for all this is to show how the lame ideas and policies that the liberals want would devastate our economy, military and pride. This way if you ever spoke the words "I'm a liberal", you would get thrown out of town.

Answer 3

Shut down the Federal Reserve stop giving almost half the money of the IRS/Fed system to a handful of trillionaires in England who use it to fund and finance wars and promote a welfare state.

There are two basic types of government feudalism/dictatorship and free market capitalism. True free market capitalism has never been tried. The closer we have come to true private property ownership the more wealthy and prosperous common people have become and the scarcer dictators and corporate/socialist/communist crooks.

Paper money gives the corporate criminals a weapon to create poverty and dependence, and finance wars that can't be paid for with cash. Without that we would be forced to be successful and get along or die.

Obviously most people would choose to be successful if not enabled and isolated from the consequences of their actions. Since there would be no poverty and wars would destroy a savings based economy it would literally force us all to get along, save, be happy and make wise choices. Best of all it's 100% natural, 100% fair 100% non-racist 100% non-sexist 100% non-age discriminating and ends senseless bickering over morality, entitlements and relativism.

You know it fells good to lounge in front of the TV or watch video games and snack, but you know you are healthier, happier, wealthier, if you or someone who cares about you makes you get out get some exercise and do something useful. The Asian countries are buying us up and putting us out of work because of monetary manipulation and U.S. loans, trade favoritism etc. all linked to paper or actually hard drive money issued by the FED.

No more arguing over who gets or deserves what you just keep what you have and if you take what belongs to someone else you go to jail.

Professional sports are entertaining because of a level playing field and common rules. Imagine a short or fat football basketball or baseball player having to run a relative amount or hit or throw a ball a relative amount to score based on ability. Could you imagine arresting or firing an English speaking team for tackling a Spanish speaking running back because he didn't understand the rules. To bad we think games on T.V. are more important than living, dying, our families our future and wars. What about truly disabled people, well obviously we have a social resposibility to them but the more independent they are the happier they would be so they still need to try to succeed at something.



"This is the dirty secret of welfare statists tirades against the gold standard" referring to the U.S. Federal reserve/IRS Ponzi scheme designed to artificially support socialist programs in England so the bankers could collect interest on the scam.

Answer 4

I would remove the Federal Reserve of their duties, create new United States currency owned by the people and backed by precious metals as our Constitution intended. It is unconstitutional to have a private company (Federal Reserve) own and control our monies. I hope everyone knows that the Federal Reserve is not a branch of our government but a private corporation ran by the international bankers. Does anyone see a problem with this? We don't own our own money! It is worthless and our entire National Debt is the interest that we have racked up with the bankers to print and give us their money! Look at your dollar bills or any bill for that matter. On the top front is says "Federal Reserve Note", not "United States Note". They already own our money and most of the politicians creating and/or changing our laws. One world government here we come.

Answer 5

I would make more use of the Presidential Address system and keep the American people updated at least once a week. There is nothing you could do that would last if you were President for just a day.

Answer 6

For one day I would commander all the media outlets that broadcast in the United State and run 12, two hour shows; one of the two hour broadcasts would explain why we have a 9 trillion dollar national debt and why we only pay interest on it. The other would explain why we must start to pay it back and what will happen during the process.

Answer 7

Revamp the vile disgusting and corrupt family court system so that it would be fair for both parents and custody of the children would be 59-41 minimum!

Answer 8

Bring wages up fast and make the work force and schools just go 4 days a week instead of 5. Have a longer weekend, like Sat,Sun and Mon.
Humans should have more leisure time from work to get
caught up at home.

Answer 9

Institute the Fair Tax and abolish the IRS, of course that would be a perfect world.

Answer 10

I would immediately secure the borders and start rounding up illegal immigrants. I would begin prosecuting all companies who hire, harbor and help illegal immigrants and I would demand fiscal accountability and audits for fraud, waste and abuse in all government agencies. Since I'm very good at multi-tasking, I can do more than one thing at a time.
