Da Cap gets my vote so far. Some of these things are taken from other people's.
- Nationalize the illegalization of cigarette smoking in all public places.
- Legalized abortion only to victims of rape.
- Assign more hard labor sentences as opposed to simply prison sentences.
- Eliminate the welfare system, or vastly limit its scope (like 2 years per lifetime per person, or something).
- Salary cap on ALL sports (this means you, baseball)
- Restrict all guns unless you can make a legitimate case for needing one for your survival.
- More penalties on bad parenting. Actually enforce a foster care system for parents that don't know how to be parents.
Some very nice points there King Bahamut.
The abortion issue is tricky because going either way would turn off a lot of people. Then again, the vast majority of people who are against abortion are also against stem cell research, which I think is silly.
It was announced that Nancy Reagen, soon to be Ronald's widow, he's expected to pass away within the week, favors stem cell research because perhaps it could have cured her husband. This is quite a kick to the teeth of a lot of Republicans who worship the Reagens as Gods. The way I see it, if any sort of research, which doesn't actually harm already living beings, can lead to cures, I'm for it.
Take care all.
"It was announced that Nancy Reagen, soon to be Ronald's widow, he's expected to pass away within the week,"
oh GOD, I won't be able to turn on the TV for a week or two after he kicks it.
I would give my ideas, but, honestly, I would be a brutal dictator
I'd just like to sneak in here real quick and let everyone know that salary caps in sports aren't a federal issue, and never have been, and really have no reason to ever be.
That is all.
All right, I'll try to come up with a few policies:
-prison sentences for violent crime only, anyone else gets community service
-no death penalty
-legalise all drugs
-legalise prostitution (except child prostitution, of course)
-limited access to cars, people have to prove they need a private car
-abolish compulsory military service
-close all religious schools
-dispossess racist employers
-free healthcare and public transport, free school dinner; raise taxes if necessary to pay for that
-slowly replace nuclear power with free energy as far as possible
-discourage abortion, but don't criminalise it; educate about ways to prevent unwanted pregancy
-ban that stuff that makes the ozone hole bigger
-shorten the working week to create more jobs

Why should religious schools be banned? I attend one myself, and have done so for all my life. They are private institutions that support themselves (thus they are often some of the most impoverish) but they are known for generally better performance than public schools, as well as better environments. I think private schools, religious or otherwise, are in most cases better than public schools, even if they are more than a little pricey (my high school costs more than college will next year).

That is true, but I can think of billions of things to do with 252+ million dollars, and paying A-Rod isn't one of them. Cutting the excess somewhere, I think sports would be a good place, would allow the money to be relocated elsewhere, where it can be more helpful. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE sports, but I really think the product wouldn't suffer if a salary cap was implimented.
- Another new rule: Ban any form of attack ads during a campaign. These, more than anything else have turned me almost completely off to the current campaign. I'll start paying attention again during the debates, but I refuse to sit through another attack ad by either side.
Take care all.
Attack ads are probably one of the more irritating things about the elections, besides the messy business of having to watch the president screw up for four years.
"That is true, but I can think of billions of things to do with 252+ million dollars, and paying A-Rod isn't one of them."
Taxes don't pay his salary. You don't like it, don't go, and the sports will run out of money and HAVE to pay athletes less.
Of course, in Doomgaze's America, sports would be outlawed as we'd all be training to rain fire and destruction down upon the middle east, europe, canada, south america, mexico, africa, asia, australia, mars, and the sun.
Tax money built two new sports stadiums in my town in the past decade. Under the rule of my party, those stadiums would be obliterated and replaced with something more useful, for example a cheese factory or a large empty lot containing a duck pond.
That happened down here too, but the people DID vote for it.
What? You can use the money to build a giant cardbox!
If I were to make a political party, I would enforce the death sentence for anyone who didn't think for him or herself. Unfortunately, most of the party members would have to be executed, making this the most self-destructive party ever.
So... scratch that thought.
