1. Increase funding to security agencies and policing by decreasing money to military.
2. Stop fighting other wars for people who hate us
3. Fix tax loopholes
4. Remove term limit on president (so that way presidents have something to lose and don't go nuts in their second term)
5. Get corporations out of the political system
6. Secure the boarders. Then give all illegals 5 years to make themselves known. Those who do so and haven't committed felonies will be granted amnesty for crossing the boarder illegally and will be given citizenship. This will allow us to focus on the criminal element and won't hurt our economy by deporting a lot of working individuals.
7. Crackdown on misuse of government money
8. Create nationwide public works projects to employ those who cannot find work (fixing up the roads and infrastructure and such)
9. Modify gun laws to benefit those with clean records and more heavily weigh down on those with sketchy records. (If you've owned a handgun for over a decade and you've never gotten into serious trouble, why make it hard for you to buy a rifle or something, eh?)
10. Modify gun laws so that the owner is more responsible for any accidents that occur to due negligence on the owner's part.
11. Legalize marijuana and treat it similar to alcohol.
12. Lighten sentences for less serious offenses, but significantly increase them for murder, ra[i]p[/i]e, and other very bad crimes.
13. Convert to the metric system
14. Uphold gay marriage and equality
15. Increase the care given to veterans
16. Focus on the USA and fix our problems before worrying about other countries
17. Legalize kinder eggs (seriously wtf)
18. Promote Eco-friendliness
19. Increase minimum age for voluntary military service to 21. Selective service remains at 18.
20. Military service is required to hold public office (on the state and federal level, not the local level).
21. Modify the election process so that the least hated candidate is elected, instead of the most liked. [spoiler]Example: let's say there is candidate A, B, and C. 33% of people vote this way: A,B,C. 33% this way: B,A,C. And 34% this way: C,A,B. Now, due to majority rule, C wins even though 66% hate them the most. Instead, A should win as 33% love them and 67% are ok with him. See how that works?[/spoiler]

Most of these I can support. I'd just make military a requirement for federal, not state.
-
I'm just talking about the really high up offices. President, HoR, Senate, Governor, so on. In my opinion, if you're going to have a say in where our troops are going, you should have at least served.
-
I agree with you completely.
-
I actually agree with all of this, even the parts i would normally be against because you provide great and reasonable solutions that would really quite help. You should run for office.
-
I would but I'm only 19. Maybe one day.
-
Not one day. That's quitter talk. That's the talk of dreams that'll never be fulfilled. You should really actually do it. You can do it. I believe in you.
-
Right now I'm working on getting into a job as a first responder (preferably police). That's my life goal right now. Once I'm older I could use that community service career to work my way into politics. Probably start out as the head of the sheriffs office or something.
-
Noice. You should also try to get some money just because of how the system for president and governor works nowadays.
-
I can get in good with the Unions and pull a Sanders. Very little money used during a political campaign is the candidates personal money.
-
At least for president.
-
The whole marijuana thing could be fixed by treating as alcohol, but much higer taxes
-
I agree with most of these, very good policies.
-
NUMBER 17 FTW
-
There shall be chocolate
-
Most of that sounds pretty good.
-
I love it!
-
Whoa, I don't agree with most of this, but at least I see a rational foundation. The only exception is raising the minimum age for volunteer military service. That's ridiculous.
-
The way I see it, the brain doesn't finish developing until your early twenties, you have to be 21 to drink, and 21 to be a cop. I just think it's odd you can die for your country voluntarily at 18, but you can't serve your community until 21.
