Anyone care to try and figure out who wrote this "manifesto"??
While I don't agree with ALL of it, most of it works for me.. About you all?

F. Increase pay for active duty combat troops by 10 percent. Number Two. Fire any unmarried military person becoming pregnant while on active duty.”

J. Regarding the media; one, eliminate all foreign ownership of any American media entity. Two, break up overly large conglomerates, like News Corporation.

L. Repatriate all illegal immigrants now incarcerated. Encourage all other illegals to self-repatriate through double taxation on wages and fines on employers.”

International

A. Iraq. Send in Iraqi troops to mop up pockets of resistance. Make Iraq pay with their oil for the cost of the war. Cordon off Sadr City, force all residents to leave, then go in and mop up all resistance fighters. Divide Iraq into three to four sectors; Sunni, Shiite, Kurd, and International. Next, remove all U.S. troops after above achieved.

B. Iran. One, sanctions embargoes and mine their harbors. Nothing goes in, nothing comes out.

C. North Korea. Destroy their launching platforms, impose a Naval blockade on all goods coming in or out, except food.

D. Israel Arab Entities. Give Israel four years to become self-sufficient. Cut off all foreign aid to all nations.

E. China. 20 percent tariffs on all China made goods immediately; rising by 5 percent each year for each year China refuses to revalue their currency.

F. United Nations. Withdraw immediately. Remove all Diplomats and staff. Convert the United Nations building into housing for the working poor.

G. Mexico. Force Mexico to pay one barrel of oil for every illegal alien in the United States of America per month.

Under the "international" part, "B" would be considered a "Act of War".... That works extremely well for me!!

If tarrifs are imposed on forgein vehicles made in the States then that will only cost our country more jobs. The forgein car makers will the country and the domestic manufacters aren't going to come back until taxes go down. Even with the tarrif it would still most likely be more profitable for the US auto manufacters to do most of their manufactering overseas where they have less taxes and cheaper labor. Plus they don't have the UAW to deal with overseas.

I don't know who wrote it. I don't agree with much of it. My answer to it below:

A. Cut Federal Income Taxes by 2 percent per year over four years, for a minimum total of 8 percent over four years.

A-1 NO to A. Eliminate the income tax. Go to a Federal sales tax of 15%. No double taxes. I.E. Liquor would not be subject to the sales tax since it is already taxed. ETC

B. Reduce Federal Government Departments in size by 4 percent each year, for a total reduction of size by 16 percent over four years.

C. Eliminate all public assistance for able-bodied recipients. Cut off all public assistance for immigrants for five years. Repatriate those who are not working, after two years.

C-1 Sort of. NO public assistance for immigrants unless they lose a job through no fault of their own. Require them to have a job prior to entry into the country.

D. Immediately impose tariffs on cars and trucks owned by foreign entities, even if they’re manufactured in America.

D-1 NO, isolationism does not work. The counter-tariffs imposed on us would kill our export business.

E. Cause illegal aliens to build a wall between the United States and Mexico, and then, repatriate them. Pay them a one-time worker fee.

E-1 Just repatriate them. Give the jobs to U.S. workers.

F. Increase pay for active duty combat troops by 10 percent. Number Two. Fire any unmarried military person becoming pregnant while on active duty.”

G. Make abortions illegal, except when the physical survival of the mother is threatened, to be determined by three medical doctors. Require Norplant for all women on welfare of childbearing age.

G-1 Sort of – Include rape and incest. No to the Norplant, sounds too much like Hitler.

H. Close all houses of sex and massage.

H-1 Most likely un-constitutional

I. Expand the DEA, while decriminalizing most drugs.

I-1 Eliminate the DEA, The Federal government has no business in this field. It is a state matter


J. Regarding the media; one, eliminate all foreign ownership of any American media entity. Two, break up overly large conglomerates, like News Corporation.

J-1 Most likely un-constitutional

K. Encourage child bearing among tax paying citizens. Create a marriage incentive, through lower taxes for married heterosexual couples. And a government subsidy for each child conceived and carried to birth. Increase the subsidies for each year the couple remains married.

K-1 Not needed. Should impose the sales tax and child bearing is not a function of government.


L. Repatriate all illegal immigrants now incarcerated. Encourage all other illegals to self-repatriate through double taxation on wages and fines on employers.”

L-1 Won’t work. Since they are illegal they are not paying taxes now anyway. Just send them back.

International

A. Iraq. Send in Iraqi troops to mop up pockets of resistance. Make Iraq pay with their oil for the cost of the war. Cordon off Sadr City, force all residents to leave, then go in and mop up all resistance fighters. Divide Iraq into three to four sectors; Sunni, Shiite, Kurd, and International. Next, remove all U.S. troops after above achieved.
A-1 Already being worked on. DO NOT send home all troops. We need to set up a Statute of Forces agreement with Iraq similar to what we did with Germany and Japan after we ended the Post-WW2 occupation. We need to have bases to control Iran.

B. Iran. One, sanctions embargoes and mine their harbors. Nothing goes in, nothing comes out.

B-1 Won’t work. Trade will continue from Russia

C. North Korea. Destroy their launching platforms, impose a Naval blockade on all goods coming in or out, except food.

C-1 Not legal, might be considered an Act of War

D. Israel Arab Entities. Give Israel four years to become self-sufficient. Cut off all foreign aid to all nations.

D-1 Won’t work. Besides not all foreign aid is bad. It has helped keep us out of larger wars.

E. China. 20 percent tariffs on all China made goods immediately; rising by 5 percent each year for each year China refuses to revalue their currency.

E-1 You could not afford what would happen if this was done. It would hurt our export business as well.


F. United Nations. Withdraw immediately. Remove all Diplomats and staff. Convert the United Nations building into housing for the working poor.

F-1 While I don’t like the U.N. I don’t like isolationism more.

G. Mexico. Force Mexico to pay one barrel of oil for every illegal alien in the United States of America every month

G-1 Can’t be done.
