Numero uno, Social security: Remove the cap on deductions. Most people making over 106,000 dollars surely don't need a tax break on SS. This would undoubtably make SS solvent forever.
Numero Dos, the debt: 1. don't let the tax breaks for the rich to continue, let the tax breaks for the middle class and the poor whom really need them to remain, but by allowing the tax breaks for the rich to remain, it will add almost a trillion Bucks to the debt in the next ten years, (Silly republicans).
2. Make China regulate their currency to a fair level and put tariffs on any foriegn country (Korea comes to mind) that will not accept US made Products in porportionality. Make currency equal on the world stage, IE pay workers in foriegn lands the same wages as the USA, thereby reducing the incentive for US corporations to go overseas. Make shipping costs equal so consumers in foriegn countries pay the same for Items as we do thereby eliminating the made in China and shipped to the USA, obsolete.
3. Force corporations that take their factories overseas to avoid US taxation, to pay the taxes anyway by setting a tax on their imports that would be higher than the ones they would pay if they remaind here. Give incentives to keep jobs here, give tax breaks to any corporation that would bring back their factories and Hire American workers at a fair wage (Liveable wage).
Promote US made goods throughout the world, setting standards and qualities not seen overseas, we certainly could do that.
4. Restructure the political hiring structure by eliminating lobbyists and PAC money from elections, and repeal the secret admirer donation deal put in place by the activist supreme court.
5. Figure out what to do about the giant bowel of shit we call congress. They for the most part just puppets of the corporations. Dissallow any political contributions from any outside source period, give them a pay raise instead. It would be much cheaper to make media offer equal free time to candidates, (Offer them tax incentives) than to play the current game., If that were true, maybe we could get some regular Joes in congress, people that actually had the interest of the people in mind, and could not be bought. Make it a stiff penalty for accepting any outside money, something like losing their jobs and 10 years in the Iron bar hotel.
Those are a few workable solutions, although it would be difficult to get them instituted with the steaming bowl of crap we now have for legislatures.
