1) Tax churches and all religious organizations

2) Stop massive influx of immagrants who's ideals and culture is fundimentally incompatible with western values

3) I dont like your guy's constitution, but for public support I would have to follow it. So mabye actually follow it

4) Declare both the KKK and BLM terrorist groups

5) Legalize Marijuana and release all those arrested for nonviolent drug charges

6) Reform the legal system and the electorate. Specifically to stop certain biases held towards different genders in different areas of laws and make the peoples vote actually count for more (SERIOUSLY your guy's election system is messed)

8) More programs to help break the povetry cycle.

9) Make cops responsible for their actions. Body cams if neccecary but hopefully not.

10) Gender equality in the workplace. Equality of oppertunity though, not equality of outcome

11) No more allying with the middle eastern dictatorships. Too barbaric.

12) Crooked politicans get put in jail. End of story

Just out of curiosity...what is it about our Constitution you don't like?

The fact that It doesn't set up America as a pure democracy.

I can sort of see your point, however, as with most nations of any decent size a pure democracy would be entirely too unwiedly to get much done. I do see your point though.

I'd like to point out that thousands of churches use that tithe money to feed the homeless, provide community activity, promote peace, and step up to help families.

There are churches that make millions, but most struggle to get by. My father is a pastor and he barely made enough to provide for our family. He devoted much of his time to working with men recovering from drug addiction, loving broken people and serving.

Tax the church and his income would be gone. It wouldn't be feasible for many pastors to continue serving their communities and still provide for their families.

The government could just allocate that same money to the same purposes such as helping the homeless, etc. Or if you're a conservative, then not taxing people in the first place and letting them contribute charity money on their own is preferable.

Giving churches a tax subsidy is against the spirit of the United States, which is supposed to be a secular nation. The law should be totally agnostic to religion or any type of personal belief. If you cant make a case for a law based on logical arguments, you shouldnt have that law.

Universal Basic Income.

This is actually an interesting idea, but I think it needs to be studied more. Ideally you'd have a state try it out as a test and see how it goes. But I dont see it happening.

Alaska already has it. Canada, Finland and Holland will be setting up basic income pilots soon.

But the Alaska money comes from oil, correct? So it's hard to apply the knowledge learned from that to the rest of the country.

I'm not familiar with the other cases. Do you have links or other information?

From what little I've seen, I think the idea has a lot of possibilities, but conservatives in this countries would have a collective brain aneurysm if anyone suggests this.

Making being atheist, Christian, and Muslim illegal. Make every one join the New World Order, and worship Batman every Tuesday (which is when tacos will be served). Erect a statue of Batman where the Statue of Liberty use to be. Increase the amount of pay that woman receive. Replace the America flag with a rainbow one with Batman on it.

I like the sound of that.

This is much better. And instead of a national anthem and pledge of allegiance, we will play this before events, concerts, sporting games, and at the beginning of school days.

I would start by crowning myself God Emperor.

I Would purge the current government, and those who profit off of debt on a national level.

I would create a new currency and establish a non profit national banking system with a transparent system of interest used to keep the bank afloat.

I would institute a transaction based tax.

I would create a Maximum income law.

I would slowly restore democracy after stabilizing the country

Laws would be required to be written in plain, simple text.

Any Elected official upon reasonable suspicion of corruption will be removed from their post.

Any Elected official found to be guilty of corruption has to spin the wheel of punishment.

just to name a couple of the punisments... lose of job, Flaying, Boiling,Cooking, Hanging, breaking every bone in body,being locked in a cell with puppies ect.

I would recognize the KKK and any Neo-Nazi groups as terrorist organizations.

Do they commit acts of terror? Cause if they don't, doing so wouldn't make any sense.

The most you could do is label them as a hate group, but I doubt you could do anything officially because of freedom of speech. It's why they're allowed in the first place.

Yes. Also, I have the links, but I cannot put them on here for some reason. Please just type "Universal Basic Income" into Google and look at all the things that Scott Santens, Charles Murray, Guy Standing, Andy Stern and Rutger Bregman all have to say about it. There really is a lot of information about it.

Also, believe it or not, this is something that both the Left and the Right heavily support.

In addition, if enough people in this country vote for Democrats this year in November, then it is possible that Republicans will get kicked out of both Houses and American politics in general. There is an interesting article talking about how Obama destroyed the Republican Party. I would highly recommend that people read it.

I will do more research on it, thanks. I'm still skeptical that Republicans might embrace this. Personally I dont care about ideology, I go with data if it's available. If data shows that this works, I'm for it. If it shows that it doesnt, I'm against it. But politics today is all about ideology, and few people seem to care about data or facts. <shrugs>
