King of AmericaIf you were made KING of America for 5 years only to get our economy in tip-top shape and there was a proviso that what you did during that time could not be undone for 10 years after you left. What would you do and why would you do it?
Here's my list:
Effective January 1 next year the following are decreed:
1. The constitution is amended so as to permanently prohibit any central banking authority such as the current ‘Federal Reserve Banks†And to provide for the ‘United States dollar" being henceforth defined as the forward price of an ounce of gold as of January 1 next year. Any currency issuer shall be prepared to defend the value of its currency in these terms. (Ensures stability of currency value and prevents reckless expansions of money supply.)
2. 16th Amendment is repealed and FAIRTAX is implemented. (Frees us from needless government intrusions and endless violations of the 4th and 5th amendments. Would make the economy expand like no one alive today has ever seen.)
3. Constitution is amended to provide the Chief Executive line item veto authority. (Greatly Reins in wasteful government spending)
4. Constitution is amended to make perfectly clear that the right of states to freely leave the union is inherent. (FREEDOM)
5. The Executive Branch of government shall be composed solely of:
a. The offices of The President and Vice President b. The Department of State c. The Department of Defense d. The Department of the Treasury
6. Constitution is amended to make perfectly clear that the word “life†means from the moment of conception until the moment of natural death.
7. Constitution is amended to make perfectly clear that term "Natural Born Citizen" as it relates the United States Constitution means a person born of parents who are citizens of the United States of America only at the time of the child’s birth regardless of where they happen to be located at the time of the child’s birth, and “birthright citizenship†extends solely to the offspring of parents who are citizens of the United States of America only at the time of the child’s birth regardless of where they happen to be located at the time of the child’s birth.
8. Constitution is amended to make clear that Islam is not a “religion†as the authors of the first amendment understood the term and thus not protected under the United States Constitution.
9. Constitution is amended to make clear that the word “Commerce†as it relates to the U.S. Constitution means interactions among parties where actual value is exchanged.
Anyone else want to play?
