If you could lead America...

What would you do? I'm Australian, but because this election bullsh[i]i[/i]t is up in my grill, I just thought of this. Me, I would stop trying to be the best nation in the world, get the international tensions aside. Stop trying to convert other nations government to republic, and leave it at that. I'd also secretly deport Trump to Mexico, let them deal with his Sh[i]i[/i]t Edit: 10 scenarios, nice

  • Let me tell you what I'd do. You wake up, realize you're out of drinks, so you go out to the local gas station/grocery store and realize you haven't checked the polls this week. You go to the machine that looks like an ATM machine, except it has a privacy screen. You login with your voter ID and up pops a list of about 40 polls divided by category. You can choose in depth answers, a simple yes or no, or you can pass the poll. In order for a poll to pass, it has to have a large majority vote split into two categories, yes and no. In order for yes to win, for example, 75% of the people who voted must have chosen yes. Following, all the yes option votes (in depths mentioned earlier) will be tallied individually and the winner will be chosen. There are no representatives that get x amount of votes per state. Every single voter has a voice, and there would be an option to suggest polls. If enough people suggest a certain thing, it would be polled. If I were president this is how 99% of the country's problems, laws, and propositions would be handled. I would abolish the IRS and introduce a flat tax, regardless of income. Tax money wouldn't be spent on useless things, and instead the saved taxes would be put in a pool for paid college through excellence. If you make the grades, you'll get a free ride. Anyone on welfare would be drug tested monthly, and if any of them test positive, they stop receiving tax payer dollars. Any able bodied people on welfare will have two years to find a job. After that they're cut off for a minimum of five years. Hey look, I get it. You hit a rough patch and sometimes you need help. I don't mind helping. But if you're going to collect a check written by the taxpayers for years upon years, which so many are doing, without even looking for work, you're dead weight. I'm all for taking care of disabled and elderly people, and vets would receive the care they deserve. Another tax expense would be turning every single home in America into a self sufficient living space. Windmills, wells, solar panels, any knowledge you need to grow your own food and live off the land if that's your wish. If not, you just don't have an electric or water bill anymore. Federal government would stay out of state's business and let them handle it themselves, as the forefathers intended. I've got plenty of ideas and ideals. Most people wouldn't agree with my ideologies but, as president, it wouldn't be my ideologies you're voting for, it would be voting for yourself. With me as president, we're all the president.
