U.S needs to start fresh

Name: Anonymous 2011-08-25 19:14

I realized that inorder for start ups,and business to hire more people, the U.S needs a complete reboot.

Here's how we can do it.


1. Look at taxes,and how damn messed up the system is.

--We need to get rid of 100 Percent of all current taxes,inorder to allow the US create a fresh environment,for business in the US.

--We would replace all the current taxes with a single consumption tax. This means,you only get taxed on how much you spend.  NOT ON YOUR FRUITS OF LABOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!(INCOME TAX)


2.We need to bring back the gold standard!
--So no more devaluing of our precious dollar's value!

3.Balanced Budget Amendment!
--The government arn't our lords,so they should not beable to spend more than what they bring in! Just like a citizen could!


4.Every budget GOV should get cut a flat across the board, 25 percent.
Military,Education,Welfare,subsides,farming...ect..ect!

5.A temporary block on environmental restrictions,until the unemployment rate,reach a certain number!

When you have a culture where you have people like Michele Bachmann that say things like Hurricane Irene was punishment from God, people think you're a some kind of Einstein because you can correctly answer five clues on one episode of Jeopardy!, one where people cannot locate major nations or continents on a blank or incorrectly-labeled map, people (depending on where you live in the country) that think homeschooling and Jaysus is the answer to all the problems of education, then yes, it certainly is. It's not unreasonable or unfair to say that there's a burgeoning culture of anti-intellectualism going around. People have to realize that educating oneself isn't entirely just a formal matter, it's also autodidactic.

What I also found interesting is that other countries that are doing much better, completely eliminated their standardized testing and measure success in education via other methods. The never-ending trumpet here is "We need more standardized testing! More stringent tests!", and yet, the education declines further.
