United Nations – Swords into Plowshares

PLEASE DON FIREPROOF GOGGLES NOW 😉

… I’d end all the wars, recall all the military forces, and honorably discharge 50% of them. We don’t need citizen soldiers, we need citizens. The funds recovered from the waste of war would immediately fund the new National Health Service.

… Guantanamo Bay would close and everyone would get a trial by jury in the United States. The Department of Justice would have to step up, and if someone was incarcerated without proof they would be given $250,000 and an airplane ticket to their destination of choice.

… The Department of Homeland Security would be disbanded and the funds wasted on them re-routed to NHS.

… I would champion an amendment to the United States Constitution declaring that all human beings are equal in every way under the law. Therefore gay marriage would be a non-issue and any “Illegal Immigrants” would instantly become citizens. They would be rounded up, provided with proper US Identification, all of them would receive Social Security Numbers and they would become a on-the-books part of our workforce.

… Any company found guilty of damaging the climate, the environment, or any ecosystem would be dismantled and the parts sold to fund recovery programs. No cap-and-trade, no reparation payments, either you submit or you cease business in the United States.

… Massive funding of the Department of Education. Class sizes throughout the United States would be capped at 20 children per class and those schools that retain the best teachers and produce the best students get yearly bonuses to their general ledgers.
