Do you think taxes are too high, we have too much government...here's my plan?

Question

If you love big government...move on from this question.

We currently have 50 States, each with it's own expensive government. We divide the country into 10 large states and dumping 40 state houses...a savings of 960 billion. We had small states because transportion to had to be with a 2 day riding distance to the capital...we've out grown the old system. We have 5 layers of gov, fed, state, county, city & twp....we cut that to Fed, State and City level...a savings of 850 billion yrly.

Of couse I have every detail figured...ask me and I'll tell you the answer. Under my plan, people who get SS money would increase by 23% (seniors) the deficts would be Zero in 3 years, taxes would be no more than 10%. Did you know that 83% of taxes is nothing but salaries & benifits

I know my plan is a radical move..I know many will critize..BUT take the time to "ASK" me a question and I'll answer right back!


It's time for REAL change now!

fcsa...good question! The savings from making "Government" more efficent...the savings from getting rid of 40 State Houses...BILLIONS & BILLIONS...the money would raise the levels of income to the elderly. It's restructuring government from top to bottom....it's the way we run government that forces our country to fund ridiculous programs over & over 50 times, 40 less governors, we would have a much more efficent government suited for the needs of it's people rather than funding politicans...it's VERY exciting if we just focus on what works and what doesn't work....50 states doesn't work well.

Please ask away!!!!

Notrous....Great question: First in my medical plan...ANYONE can buy their drugs from any source...if for an example the FDA say's it's not safe to buy Candanian drugs they must PROVE that fact to a civilian board (another part of my plan) People who lobby...in my plan if an elected offical speaks too, talks with, makes eye contact with a "Foriegn lobbist...THEY GO TO JAIL and are tried for treason PERIOD. We love/Hate people who lobby officals...my plan calls for and OPEN-LIGHT program...all activity must be in the OPEN and PUBLIC....anything behind closed doors would be considered High-Treason against the American people///NO money can change hands on ANY level...I have a very long and detailed plan to deal with this issue!

Answer 1

Yes I agree 100%, we have to much government. 30% of the population works in government. The government is the bigest waist of our naturial resorses, sorry I'm not good at spelling and spell check is not working. But as an American, I would vote for such a change. It's time our government under went an overhaul. You didn't mention the billions that is waisted each year on aid to the rest of the world, when people here can't get the aid they need. One other thing, do away with the electorial vote, popular volt only. All so do away with the triburnial comisstion. .America doesn't need the good old boys club any longer. I would only hope to see such a change in my life time. Our prison system all so needs and overhaul, make them self supporting once again. America has more people in jail and prison than any other nation in the world, thanks to all the liberalist.

Answer 2

Like you I definitely believe that a REAL change is necessary. Unfortunately I also believe that the level of deceit in our gov't is sooo great that each entity is more interested in making themselves richer at whatever cost necessary.

What would your plan be on lobbying? Too much of our gov't is beholden to lobbyists for big industries which in turn raises the price of health care, medicine, security and a host of other programs and services. Medicine is way cheaper in Mexico and Canada, but due to heavy lobbying by the pharmaceutical companies, the US gov't makes it a crime to get medicine from these countries under the guise of it them not being "FDA" approved...when in fact it's their way of making sure US citizens are forced to pay the exorbitant drug prices they charge.

And based on your plan, how would you be able to justify cutting out those other layers of fat? Understand that every level of politics pays up to higher levels in order to justify and continue their existence so that they can continue to fatten their pockets at the expense of the middle class taxpayer.

Answer 3

>> people who get SS money would increase by 23% (seniors) the deficts would be Zero in 3 years.

I don't see how that follows by reducing the number of states.

We have fewer workers funding SS costs on a pay as you go basis for more retirees; this is not going to fixed cheaply or quickly.

Answer 4

If you reform that many depths of government, what will you do with all the government employees? The United States Gov't is the largest employer in the country let alone, state and city employees. They will all be sitting around waiting for their welfare check, which from the sounds of it you would not appreciate.

Answer 5

Sounds great why don't you get the idea to the president, oh yea cause people are to dam greedy to give up that income of 100,000 dollars a year to type on a computer, and go to a few meetings a month, we the people are just pee-ons with big wishes...............

Answer 6

All you have to do now is sell it to congress and 3/4 of the states and the constitution can be amended to do it your way.

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8
