Thread: Why not start a new America?

(2) No office of public trust shall pay a salary greater than $100.00, per year.
Any public office was supposed to be voluntary.

(3) Professional lobbying, to include gifts of money or other considerations, including campaign contributions, shall be a federal felony, punishable by a term of not less than five years imprisonment.
And all contributions will be turned over to the state.

(4) No holder of any office of public trust shall be allowed to seek employment with any entity with which the branch of government in which he served does business with, or regulates, within ten years of having left office.

Note: Numbers 1 through 4 above, are intended to dismantle, and prevent the re-emergence of, the professional governing class, i.e. career politicians. Our forefathers regarded public service as a sacrifice made for our nation, not as a career, and most certainly not as a path to personal wealth, and we need to restore that.

(5) English shall be the Official language of the United States; it shall be unlawful, to conduct any official business of any governmental entity in any other language.
I still prefer the "English only in public" rule. HELPS to eliminate Terrorist & degenerative conversations.

(6) All public laws shall be written in plain English, so that everyone, (including the legislators voting on same) may understand their precise meaning.

(7) The income tax shall be abolished, and replaced with a national sales tax (value added tax). Note: this will encourage saving, reduce paperwork, and improve compliance with the tax code, as there will be far fewer opportunities for cheating, and the citizenry will actually understand the tax system.

(8 As there are now no former slaves residing or born within the United States, the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is hereby repealed, as its original purpose is now obsolete. This will be replace by the following new amendment: Any person born of parents who are both United States citizens, shall be a citizen of the United States. Any person born on United States territory shall be a citizen of the United States, provided that one parent is a United States citizen, and the other a citizen of the United States or a legal resident thereof. Any person born on United States territory, whose parent or parents are unlawfully residing on said territory at the time, shall not receive United States Citizenship except that any such child with one parent who is a United States citizen may apply for citizenship at age 18. Children born to non-citizen legal residents, shall be allowed to apply for United States Citizenship at age 18.

(9) All United States borders shall be militarized. A separate service branch, reporting to the Department of the Army, may be created for this purpose.
I can see it now. It'll look just like the German checkpoints in the movies. Mmmmm, dunno, but sure sounds nice.

(10) Unlawful entry into the United States shall be a felony, punishable by two years imprisonment OF VERY HARD LABOR & not able to learn to speak or write English while in prison , followed by immediate deportation. No one , having unlawfully entered the United states, shall be eligible to apply for permission to re-enter the country at any time in the future. No one, found to have unlawfully resided in the United States at any time, shall be eligible to apply for naturalized citizenship, even if previously granted legal status by any "amnesty".

(10) Any attempt to register to vote, or to cast a vote, by a non-citizen, shall be a felony punishable by not less than ten years imprisonment. Any person or parsons conspiring to assist a non-citizen to either vote or register to vote, shall be guilty of a felony, punishable by a term of not less than five years imprisonment.

That should be a good start.

GADFLY,... Your our next Secratary of State!

Would you be able to afford million dollar + per quarter tuition fee?

No police, everyone packs their own gun and settles their own problems (Watch the crime rate drop overnight on that one.)
2/3 of the Nation be dead in one night. Then the half left over the next night be dead from either alcohol poisoning or accidental gun discharge. Hummm, one way to thin the heard.... NOT!

I'll think of the rest later.

Don't drink toooooo many. (hic)

3. Watch as every illegal in the country is out of a job the day after these two are perp-walked off to Leavenworth or Supermax and their company is sent spiraling into collapse.

4. Make sure there are plenty of BP agents on hand at the border to get the illegals back south of the border as they, now unemployable here, will be flowing out in their tens of millions and be nearly completely gone within about 6 weeks.

5. Give police standing orders (MOD EDIT) they run across with Spanish language tats, as they are no doubt MS-13 or some other Latin gang filled with illegals.

Problem solved.

Tokie

Just one more thing.....no public services to anyone but American
citizens. No jobs, no services....no problem!!!!! We didnt pay for
them to come here, we shouldnt have to pay to remove them.
Demagnetize and they will self deport.
