Your choice, of course, but you will be sharing the road with them faster than you think. In fact, if you live in the Bay area, you already have been.
Repeal the criminalization of light bulbs.
Go after obama’s hidden assets gained during his presidency. That should rescue a few billion. Bill the Mooch for the vacations.
Freeze, then confiscate Al Gore’s assets and deport him to his home planet.
Put returning combat vets on the borders and in the airports.
“Freeze, then confiscate Al Gore’s assets and deport him to his home planet.”
Haahahaha...that would be poetic justice...Gore with frozen assets...do we have the capability to reach Assholia? Why not just throw him back in the sea like they did in free willy?
Have a HUGE lease sale on public lands in ANWR and others and use money towards federal deficit.
Have a “return profits to USA” amnesty program for corporations to return assets and investment money without any penalties.
Good suggestion. there is over a trillion dollars parked overseas by American companies that could be invested here, if the business climate and tax climate allowed it.
A self-driving car is about as appealing as artificial insemination.
And worse, handing control of your movements over to a central power, even if it’s an infallible computer, is a big mistake, a slippery slope I don’t want to go down. A self-driving car is exactly what Big Brother wants to keep the proles under control.
Do you think for a minute that your self-driving car wouldn’t be tied into a central computer capable of monitoring your every movement?
You will have to pry my steering wheel and stick shift from my cold, dead hands.
The title is silly. There is nothing Romney can do FOR the economy by spending any money. For instance ; thorium- just change the regulations, eliminating many or most (and firing the associated bureaucrats charged with enforcing the dropped regulations) to favor thorium.
Resign
That is my point. We need to focus on cutting the budget, but we can still pursue a positive agenda without spending a lot of money or creating new bureaucracies. Small regulatory changes can have a large effect on the economy by opening up new markets, or allowing competition where there currently isn't any. This is not a "Romney's Solandra" thread, where I want him to waste money "investing" on things industry could do.
Day one in the name of fairness Romney could, by executive order, direct the IRS to collect capital gains taxes only on the real, ie inflation adjusted, increases in the value of assets. It is certainly unfair that the US currently taxes inflationary gain of assets.
Removing this unfair taxation of inflation would certainly spur business formation and expansion. It would spur employment and tax revenues too.
1. Return the Dept of Education back to the states along with the 1/2 of the money saved.
2. Ditto for the EPA
3. Deregulate the railroad
4. Make three felonies equals life in prison for all states
5. Appoint real conservative constitutionalist judges to all benches
Do you think for a minute that your self-driving car wouldn’t be tied into a central computer capable of monitoring your every movement?
I completely agree. However, starting in 2015, all vehicles will have black boxes which can track you. The privacy issues will happen to everyone whether or not the car is self powered. That is another issue, although I am strongly on the side of privacy.
But here's a question. Would you buy a pizza if it is delivered by a self driving car?
If he only did the first two things on your list, we would see an economic rebound like no one has seen before.
‘Why not just throw him (algore)back in the sea like they did in free willy?’
eh. . I thought we were worried about the oceans rising and flooding the coastal cities. This would of course cause that to actually come true. Not due to global warming but to glabal rescue.
AllowStop the requirement that ethanol be used in fuel for vehicles to be made from any source of ethanol, not just corn.
1.Get us out of the United Nations
2.Stop all Agenda 21 Programs such as Smart Meters
3.Change the ID used to apply for government programs to require a thumb print and a name. That will stop the fraud of using six names.
4. Make English the National Language. Stop printing forms in 44 different languages.
To go a step further allow school vouchers for any child to recieve their education. Let the public schools compete for those dollars and see how good our education gets overnight. Since the unions took over CA education has slipped from #1 in this country to #50 and in a country that has slipped from #1 worldwide to #37. AND THEY STILL WANT MORE.
May of us in Freeper land live in communities with a District Hospital that is partially supported by tax dollars. How good do you believe health would be at those institutions if everyone in the community HAD to get their healthcare only at that hospital. You would get big salaries . You would get big majestic building but no one would be competing for your business.
All Federal lands should be given to the states. The Fed need some land for a variety of uses. The feds can use emminet domain to claim land for specific use.
