4%? oh heck that is low...

During the Clinton boom boom years ( Actually he had Reagan's tailwind in his spinnaker, but I digress ) their was a financial wonk that noted even quietly within and outside the admin their was talk we were actually growing at 5 to 6%.

Here is my blueprint for obtaining such growth.

* Repeal Dodd-Frank, Sarb-Ox, and all reforms since 98' and re-instate Glass Steegal.
* replace with a simple common sense finance law.
* 15% Flat Tax no deductions except for healthcare / insurance, 15% Dividends, 15% Cap Gains and 15% Business Tax with no deductions and 100% expense right off in the 1st year.
* Repeal Obamacare, replace w/ a HSA - direct primary care platform which could be utilized for the private sectoring of the VA, Medicaid or Medicare. Other details w/ this, but I will keep it brief.
* Combine EPA, DOE, & Interior. Downsize by 60%. 30 year review of all mandates and throw out non cost effective ones. Use the Rand Corp as the consultant to do that.

And that is for starters...

Yes to the concepts outlined in those items.

But for the FIRST starter, elect Trump or a similar politician not already corrupted by Washington DC.

Else nothing will change.

Nothing will change for the better, I mean. Electing the same type of politician like for the last 30-40 years (D or R makes no difference) will also bring change. Change similar to the destruction brought by the current regime.
