There is no such thing as a neutral point of view concerning
a controversial topic such as
politics/economics. Especially during an election year people have strong yet
divergent opinions which lead to heated debates. I find that the debates of my fellow common
citizens make more sense than the televised debates of this year’s crop of
presidential candidates. They just don’t seem to get it. It’s the economy
stupid! Why can’t they put together a simple plan to get us back on track and
then promise to implement that plan?
Here is a political platform
that I would promote if I were running for President: My main goal would be to
get more companies to locate their plants in the U.S.. To accomplish this I
would simplify the tax code, cut corporate rates, streamline regulations, make
immigration policy more flexible and balance the budget slowly over the long
term. Doing these things would create jobs which would create wealth which
would solve most of our problems. I would stop spending billions on nation
building and foreign aid and repair our infrastructure. I would make it easier
for employers to get involved in education so that young people can be trained
to do the emerging high-tech jobs. There, you see? It’s not that difficult. I
do not have Pay Pal so, just send me a check.
Dear Lance:
ReplyDeleteYou have my vote!
I use PayPal, though, so you'll have to self-finance your campaign (which I presume will then be very short).
Suggestion: Promise free beer for all.

There are two things wrong with your policy.
ReplyDelete1. Your plan seems to give a s**t about all the people that it would effect. Not just the rich.
2. It wouldn't make millions and millions of dollars for you while you paid the workers 50 cent/hour to get the job done.
