President C-Gold on the issues ...
National defense
President C-Gold wants to END America's claim as the global police man. It is not our job to clean up other countries messes. America has a great land for freedom and propserity. We have thousands of miles worth of ocean to our east and west, friendly Canadian neighbors up north, and friendly Mexican neighbors down our south. The threat of having a foreign military attack our states is very slim at this point in time.
I believe that National defense is for DE-FENSE. Our troops should be used to protect our citizens and our borders from foreign invadors... not to police the world's streets.
With that being said, I would want to end the Iraqi war correctly and responsibily so that we can hand over their country to the right hands. We will also finish our fighting of the Tailiban in Afganistan and leave for good.
We will also withdraw our troops from German, Japan, Korea, the middle east and everywhere else they are stationed. We don't need to subsidize German national defense, Japanese national defense, or prevent North Korea from invading a much more prosperous South Korea. We don't need to play referee in the middle east sand box.
America will be known as the land of peace and prosperity. We will continue to be the richest country in the world, and we will once again be the envy around the world.
Our military size and scope will shrink. The chances of Mexico attacking from the south, Canada from the north, or invadors crossing the seas to attack us are slim. The biggest threat we have to our citizens is TERRORISM. Our military will chage in size and scope from being an old cold war military, into a more intelligent military. I would shink our government's conventional warfare budget, and increase our covert ops, Cia, dia, and other agencies that scout out terror. Citizens are more likely to die from some suit case nuke or other terror attack than having tanks, ships and warplanes invade us...
Economy
The entitlement days would be over. It is not the job of the government to steal from Peter to pay paul. It is not the job of the government to feed the hungry, or take from the rich and give to the poor. Initially, the poor and middle class didn't pay taxes, only the rich did. However, the government kept increasing spending and increasing spending to the point where they started taxing more and more and more.
President C-Gold is for a balanced budget.
How do we get to a balanced budget? We get the government out of our lives. We need to keep the fire in the fireplace. If the government were a business, they would be out of business because they can't even balance their own budget. We will cut spending and we will also cut taxes. We will cut entitlements...
With 2006 budget
social security cuts ( 554 billion 20%)
military cuts (512 billion 18%)
medicare cuts (345 billion 13.26%)
Medicade cuts (268 billion, 10.3% )
Welfare cuts (359 billion 13.79%)
foreign aid cuts 38.4 billion (1.47%)
we will cut our federal budget by at least 50% but more like 75% as we pay off debt to cut our federal spending even further. In 2006 we paid 211 billion in debt interest alone which was 8.10 % of our spending.
Not only will we reduce the size of government by 50 to 75%, but we will also lower taxes for ALL Americans, rich and poor, and we will also ban the Federal reserve that punishes Americans with inflation by printing more and more money... Our money will once again be worth something, and will be backed by the Gold standard... C-Gold standard.
Social security, medicare, welfare benefits will all be gone. Those elderly people that paid social security their whole lives and were promised it will be able to keep it, but those younger Americans will have to come to realize that they won't get 1 cent of it. It might not be fun or popular, but it will do us much better in the long run.
Some people will be scared that the poor won't be ok with all of the entitlement cuts, but I encourage people to donate to the charities of their choice. It isn't right to have people living off entitlements... not even seeing the faces of the people that they are collecting money from... but our charities can better distribute goods and help the poor. Americans donate more money to church and charity than any other country on earth, and the first step to ending poverty will people back to work. Some people ( a small percentage) really do need help, but our current system CREATED too many lazy people that think it is easier to collect free money than work, and THAT has to stop.
This land of peace and properity will open it's trade borders. We have a colorful nation with people from all over the globe, and we will trade with all of our world's countries. One of the best ways to encourge peace and prosperity is to engage in free trade. You don't see the major trade partners go to war...
Social issues
Sticking with the theme of freedom, America will be the envy of the world though our Social freedoms, along with our economic freedoms...
In my government you are free to do as you chose, as long as you do not harm others. America will not have a nanny state government that legistlates morality, or tells you what you can and can't do.
- If you want to bet on a game or play party poker.com after work, that is legal. Legalize gambeling.
- If a man and women want to trade money for sex in the world's oldest profession, then that is legal. There would be some inital oversight for the safety of the women and to make sure it gets running ok, but it would work.
- If you wanted to obtain a license and own a gun to hunt with or protect yourself from, the government would honor the constitution and not take your rights away.
The government would also NOT deny same sex couples the right to marry. If the government were to deny them the same civil union benefits, then the government would discriminate against some americans and C-Gold's government does NOT partake in discrimination. Gays would have the same right to marry as straight couples do and would have the same tax breaks that a man and woman would have.
With that being said the government can NOT force a church into marrying same sex couples if they didn't want to.
The government WOULD NOT allow same sex couples to adapot children. I personally believe ( without statistics) that a child with 2 Dads or 2 moms is more likely to be 'screwed up, made fun of and have a harder time" and that they are also more likely to be abused.
There is a common theme in my government... Freedom... as the government will treat you like an adult, as long as your behavior does not cause an externality to another party. I do believe that a same sex couple's right to adpot a child, does directly conflict with the child's freedom.
I would be against Abortion.
There is a position that the government can not tell a woman what to do with her body, but her aborting the child directly conflicts with the child's right to life.
In my government you are free to do as you chose, as long as you do not harm others. That is where we draw the limit. When a mother aborts a child, SHE IS harming another person. When 2 men adopt a baby, that is compermising the freedom of the minor.
Immigration. The government does a background check to make sure you are not a TERRORIST or a FELON. If you are coming to this country to work, you can be accepted. This country has accepted more immigrants than all of the rest of the world combined. This country took the world's sick, tired and poor, and we in turn became the richest nation on earth.
We didn't just take middle class or rich immigrants, we took poor. The poor irish after famine, the poor euros going through depression. The poor hispanic immigrants of the past few decades. We accept rich and poor, educated and uneducated alike.
I will tell immigrants who come to America that they CAN become whoever or whatever they want, but they can NOT expect any hand outs, bail outs, or freebees. If you expect to be an American, you sign a promise that you will take care of yourself and not ask mama government for help.
Voting
Voting is a sacred right. We have freedom of speech and the right to openly critise our elected leaders. In other countries through history, the people didn't have those rights. They had revolution after revolution, coupe after coupe ( see modern day africa). In america, we have the right to elect new leaders peacefully.
In the past you also had to be a land owner to vote.
In my America, you have to PAY taxes to be able to vote. Taxes would be much smaller in my country 50 to 75% less as we pay down our national debt before we further reduce taxes.
With that being said, you have to pay into the system and have equity to be able to vote.
A) If you are a 20 year old female in college, that has never worked a day in your life, you do NOT have the right to vote.
B) If you are a 36 year old male that lives off charity ( I ended welfare), then you do NOT have the right to vote
C) If you are an 18 year old serving our military and paying taxes, then you would STILL have a right to vote.
Our current system where the poor 51% out vote the richer 49% is not fair. We can't let the American idol watching bafoons who vote blindly for "change, hope or entitlements" outvote people who WORK, study the issues, and have property at stake.
C-Gold has views that stretch across both isles of the political spectrum but have a common theme of freedom. I want a pacifist military that is concerned about national De-Fense and not offense, and I am also for social and economic freedoms.
The best bet we as citizens had for this freedom utopia was Ron Paul.

hno: Yes, 6.1% Because once you run out of unemployment they still include you in the stats. Oh wait, they don't. And they don't include those people that have worked a few days in day labor. Shit, wrong again, they count them as employed individuals.
