If for some reason you have came in power to be the President of the United States of America,what would you do to help restore our economy, and how would you deal with our current domestic issues and foreign issues?Back up your ideas on how you would resolve the problems.

Well, me being a lefty pinko, I think we need a lot more regulation on big corporations. Big corps don't care for there customers and if I where president I would make it so no one would have to worry about being treated bad. My government would take care of people.

Economy: lower taxes and remove unnecessary regulations, yet increase consumer and worker protections from abuse by corporations.

Domestic: remove socially conservative policies that restrict individual freedoms, get rid of the PATRIOT Act, reform the education system, reform the welfare systems, increase spending on infrastructure, eliminate many federal programs.

Foreign: cut aid to almost every nation, especially in the Middle East. End all military operations, and cut the military budget a whole fucking lot. Adopt a policy of non-interventionism.

1. Legalize marijuana and tax it as if it were alcohol. Only certified stores can sell it, must be 21 to buy it. etc etc.

2. Cut spending on war on drugs (obvious the money from war on weed wont be used anymore) use it help stop harder drugs.

3. Less restrictions on corporations.

4. Stop our huge deficit spending.

5. Not really for the economy or anything but I'd legalize gay marriage (changed my opinion on that one over last year.)

My take
For Domestic Issues:

I would try my best to audit the FED.Stop printing so much money.Promote more more exporting then importing.I would also try to promote more farms.Tax more on the wealthy ,less on middle class.I would legalize marijuana too,reform the public school system too,cut back on federal programs and support a more state government system.Not let the government control people's lives so much.Promote community gardens(less need for food stamps).Just cut the government's reign a lot.Let gay couples get married.

Domestic:I agree with you Lithium on all of your views with foreign issues.

I bunched my economy's stuff with domestic because they're about the same.

Damn xD I need to pay attention when I type.
I wanna grow up to be a little Ron Paul :3.Lol

Foreign affairs - idk, give away less, but no clue how much we give now.
