End the Federal Reserve Bank (a private central banking cartel), abolish the unnecessary income tax, and the practice of usury in general, reintroduce public banking, eliminate tax havens for corporate looters, enforce laws against white collar crime, repudiate odious debts, terminate military socialism, put a halt to publicly funded bailouts of corrupt financial institutions, practice the principles of free economic competition, restart the production of goods and products to trade with other countries, and finally, reform illegal immigration. These steps will achieve several things for America; ensure that social programs for the needy will remain, fix the long-held debt burdens of the U.S. government, and help American society reach a saner and happier state of living. It's not rocket science, but that's the problem, it's much more difficult, it requires a great deal of imagination, enlightened political will, widespread common sense, and wise political leadership. It is human science. And more than two thousands years after Plato, Aristotle, and the Greeks, men are still trying to figure out how to live, how to govern, and how to address the taxman.
"When there is an income tax, the just man will pay more and the unjust less on the same amount of income." - Plato
"Where some people are very wealthy and others have nothing, the result will be either extreme democracy or absolute oligarchy, or despotism will come from either of those excesses." - Aristotle
