Each of you pretend that you have been elected President of the USA.
Offer solutions for each item listed on the form below.

Keep in mind you can not get impeached or assassinated.

Try to keep the solutions to the problems below...short, rather than long and drawn out. This is not a typing contest, it's a thinking contest.




Name of your Party
Name of your Vice President
Names and assignments of your THREE Cabinet members.

Healthcare:
Immigration:
Economy:
Taxes:
Deficit:
Energy:
Military:




Everyday I see folks bitching about how Trump does things. Well here's your chance to do better.




/e You have to use the current Congress. You can also appoint only 3 Cabinet members.

Don't have time to research my picks for posts right now

Healthcare: free market
Immigration: secure the borders, E-verify, undocumented living AND working 5+ years path to citizenship
Economy: deregulation, free trade where possible.
Taxes: abolish income tax, start VAT and get everyone paying taxes equally based on their consumption.
Deficit: We're already too far gone, no way to repay and become solvent on our unfunded liabilities.
Energy: allow drilling everywhere with some common sense regulation guarding ecosystems.
Military: Needs to be strong, but right now there is a ton of waste in spending. Needs to be made more efficient.

Name of your Vice President Some Random
Names and assignments of your THREE Cabinet members. Idk anybody

Healthcare: create a government run healthcare that runs like a private one, that helps keep the competition inthe market.
Immigration: Close all boarders to illegals. Deport illegals who have not properly assimilated, open up boarders for those who will benefit our country.
Economy: no idea
Taxes: flax percent tax
Deficit: no idea
Energy: screw capitalism. if possible, get the people to want to convert to green fast track. then it'll be back to capitalism in the green
Military: No expanding. Keep what we have. If threat is noticed then possibly increase.

Healthcare: Switch to Canadian or Britain style single payer system.

Immigration: Don't change much other than give those who have no violent criminal history a path to citizenship and aggressively deport those who are violent.

Economy: Re implement Glass-Steagull. Break up the big banks, introduce regulations to prevent more cases of anti-trust and monopolization practices that limit choice and competition in markets.

Taxes: Keep as is for the poor/middle class but raise them on the rich (talking money that is over 500k or more)

Deficit: As long as there is growth and the US is able to pay back to the people it owes money too, then that's the only thing that really matters.

Energy: Nationalize the entire sector. Expand Nuclear energy as much as possible. Increase research into better batteries. Expand wind energy in the places it is most sustainable. Remove all fossil fuel subsidies. Double or even raise NASA"s budget even higher.

Military: Lower spending
