Cutting wasteful spending of the government.
Deporting all illegals
Tax cuts across the board for individuals and corporations.
Creating jobs – not with pork, but in areas where jobs will be created.
I would ask him to look at history and facts to see what works and what does not work regarding stimulating the economy.
We have 200 years of documented facts to show what helps and what hurts.
Throwing money into a pit has never solved a problem. Allowing producers to keep what they have earned works every time.
.
I would advise him to distance himself from Pelosi, Reid, & Frank.
They will take him off the cliff with them.
Getting this country in shape, repairing and expanding the crumbling infrastructure that holds back economic growth.
Developing alternative energy and instigating the flow of people back into urban areas and eliminate sprawl
make sure our water and food sources are secure.
Wouldn’t matter, all he’s concerned about is growing gov’t/power.
Ignoring the Red necked republicans and get on with governing.
I think he is doing a miraculous job & have nothing to tell him. I watched him explain the stimulus this morning & also Tim Kaine explained the details & I have never in my life been more impressed with anyone or anything.
I would plead with him to drop his socialist ideals, and work diligently to reduce government size and spending. Reduce taxes. Reduce regulations that deter development.
I would advise him to leave the country and or kill himself.
Great Question- I would advise him to work on paying down the national debt. I realize the popular trend is to help citizens and businesses through bailout, but if your own financial house is not in order- then how can the government survive. To borrow Abraham Lincoln’s quote “A house divided amongest itself can not stand.” I apply it to this situation for Obama because I realize he wants to grow the size of government, but the government can not survive if it continues its current fiscal path.
30 minutes: Be Honest with the American people. Use the power of the office to expose the corruption in his party. Reduce the size of government to pre-Hoover levels. Use the bully pulpit to enact a flat fair tax system, which would encourage Americans to save and work harder (they get to kept what they earned).
I would encourage him to think for himself about the best ways to help the working class instead of going along with “party lines”. It’s time to quit kissing the wrong butts and be a real President who cares about the people who make up this country. I somehow think the wealthy will do just fine even if they are not given more hundreds of billions. The workers are hurting.
I would advise him to read a particular book concerning presidential relations with the military written by Dr. Herspring. Then the president would understand that the president sets the end state and then the military tells him how we can achieve that end state. The military doesn’t have the responsibility for determining what a country will look like after we leave. That responsibility belongs to our political masters.
Reduce the size of government so that its cost does not drag down the rest of the economy, even when that means cutting jobs. It is important for the economy to create productive jobs. Jobs should not just for making sure that people of a certain educational level have the salaries they expect even if they are just uselessly shuffling papers or interfering needlessly in the lives of the people. Review the salaries that government employees get and set compensation levels that are realistic based on what people with the same education and experience get in the private sector. Too many government employees are overpaid! Also reduce the number of lawyers in government. They especially expect to get very high salaries, and are always looking for something else to “regulate.”
Regarding health care, focus on keeping the people healthy, not on increasing health insurance to pay for a health care system that is not working very well. I think the U.S. is about #29 in mortality statistics, and that is one indicator that our health care system is not a good as so many claim it is.
Keeping people healthy includes replacing aging water, sewage, and storm water systems. Those are conditions we expect to see only in third word countries, but they exist here in the U.S. in older cities and towns.
Make sure that environmental regulation focuses first of all on the health of the people.
