RON PAUL “PLAN TO RESTORE AMERICA”
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY RONPAUL2012.COM
SYNOPSIS:
America is the greatest nation in human history.
Our respect for individual liberty, free markets, and
limited constitutional government produced the
strongest, most prosperous country in the world. But,
we have dri!ed far from our founding principles, and
America is in crisis.
Ron Paul’s “Restore America” plan slams on the
brakes and puts America on a return to constitutional
government. It is bold but achievable. “rough the bully
pulpit of the presidency, the power of the Veto, and,
most importantly, the united voice of freedom-loving
Americans, we can implement fundamental reforms.
DELIVERS A TRUE BALANCED BUDGET
IN YEAR THREE OF DR. PAUL’S PRESIDENCY:
Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate who doesn’t just
talk about balancing the budget, but who has a full plan
to get it done.
SPENDING:
Cuts $1 trillion in spending during the first year
of Ron Paul’s presidency, eliminating five cabinet
departments (Energy, HUD, Commerce, Interior, and
Education), abolishing the Transportation Security
Administration and returning responsibility for security
to private property owners, abolishing corporate
subsidies, stopping foreign aid, ending foreign wars, and
returning most other spending to 2006 levels.
ENTITLEMENTS:
Honors our promise to our seniors and veterans,
while allowing young workers to opt out. Block grants
Medicaid and other welfare programs to allow States
the flexibility and ingenuity they need to solve their
own unique problems without harming those currently
relying on the programs.
CUTTING GOVERNMENT WASTE:
Makes a 10% reduction in the federal workforce,
slashes Congressional pay and perks, and curbs
excessive federal travel. To stand with the American
People, President Paul will take a salary of $39,336,
approximately equal to the median personal income of
the American worker.

America competitive in the global market. Allows
American companies to repatriate capital without
additional taxation, spurring trillions in new
investment. Extends all Bush tax cuts. Abolishes the
Death Tax. Ends taxes on personal savings, allowing
families to build a nest egg.
REGULATION:
Repeals ObamaCare, Dodd-Frank, and Sarbanes-
Oxley. Mandates REINS-style requirements for
thorough congressional review and authorization
before implementing any new regulations issued by
bureaucrats. President Paul will also cancel all onerous
regulations previously issued by Executive Order.
MONETARY POLICY:
Conducts a full audit of the Federal Reserve
and implements competing currency legislation to
strengthen the dollar and stabilize inflation.
CONCLUSION:
Dr. Paul is the only candidate with a plan to cut
spending and truly balance the budget. “is is the only
plan that will deliver what America needs in these
difficult times: Major regulatory relief, large spending
cuts, sound monetary policy, and a balanced budget.
I like it except for a couple of items:
1) Foreign aid; although I agree it needs to be looked at honestly I do believe it is also a sort of ‘help’ to certain countries that keeps them somewhat dependent on the US thus keeping the ‘enemy’ whomever that may be out.
2) Foreign wars; there are enemies out there and they need to feel the heat of American firepower from time to time. Sitting in a corner with our eye, ears, and mouths shut only opens us up to another 9/11 style attack.
Ok and 3) The President is the leader of our Nation and of the free world and therefore should receive just a tad more then the common man. Besides, his salary is superficial anyway since everything he does and everywhere he goes is on the government’s dime. Unless he’s campaigning then it’s on the campaign donor’s dime.
