There are things we have to do, and right away, to turn our country around.
1) this Fed Gov has shown that taxes aren’t necessary to fund gummint operations. Fine, make that work! End all taxes! Let the gummint print up to 7% of GDP each year. That is their “allowance”. Spend it wisely.
2) You want more “stimulus”? How’s this? End Social Security. Today. Send every one a check for what they paid in.
3) Same with Medicare. Send folks their money. Tell them “You’re on your own”. Stay healthy, be smart.
4) Put the Fed Gov back in the cage the Founders built for it. Re read those speeches by Madison that say “I am unable to lay my finger on that part of the Constitution...” and the one by Davey Crocket that ends with “You can all go to Hell, I am going to Texas!”. Do that to them and make it stick!
It seems to me Palin is the ONLY one with balls enough to pull some of these things off.
Let’s not forget the GOP is a team.
Perry especially brings a lot to the field. It’s disappointing thus far, some Perry supporters seem to be indistinguishable in tactics from the previous generation of Romney “concerned”, but that might just be enthusiasm on their part. Good to remind them, to keep it constructive.
It’s been a long time since the GOP actually fielded candidates who genuinely fire up the base. Perry does in fact generate enthusiasm and loyalty. Just as Palin does.
IMHO a long term strategy should be to bring both of them into a new administration. Just imo.
Before we do away with Social Security and Medicare we need to do away with the illegals here that are sucking us dry. I believe without the drain of illegals on health care, costs would adjust to the point where we could afford to pay medical bills, which also means insurance would be affordable.
Before we make any drastic changes to SS, medicare, our military or other things we need to cut illegals off the dole. That would save a staggering amount of money in health care, education, social programs, and the justice system.
Yes we need to make big cuts and changes- but before I would ask our elderly citizens or the military to suck it up we need to address the illegal situation. I will not think anyone is serious about this country’s financial mess unless that is step one on their agenda.
