82. Break out the national razor!
Off with their goddammed heads! Guess thats me. I don't really want to off their heads though, but I hope they like King Yuugal's new rules:

90% tax rate for those over a million a year.
90% tax on any inheritance over a million
no exec will ever make more than 40x the lowest employee's salary
stock options as pay - illegal
nationalization of all energy concerns
All trade agreements canceled- 600 billion a yr trade deficit is enough for me
new WPA guaranteeing full employment to all who want to work with training provided
public school now includes college
any American caught sending jobs oversees and weakening America will be tried for treason
living wage based on real prices
free health care for all
U.S. armed forces recalled home from around the world
military pay increased to match congress's pay
Outlaw production of fossil fueled cars in 5 years
secure the border with returning troops
nationalize all current residents
restoration of Aid for Families with Dependant Children act with no slavefare provisions.
establish rights to food, housing, energy, a job, and privacy

It might sound a little socialist but I think business would do alot better without the healthcare burden. I'd be happy to work with big business on issues like producing all the windmills, solar panels, high speed rail, and electric cars I'd want. I'd be willing to cut the corporate tax rate to zero for companies that create enough jobs here.

Take a company like Ford or GM that is on its last legs; I'd be happy to bail them out for those American electric cars made with American raw materials and American workers. I think the resulting economic boom from some common sense protectionism would pay for it all and the deficit too.

Ah well, I'm done dreaming, so its back to: OFF with their goddamned heads!
