Just off the top of my head I'd say I'd like to do a trial of no corporate tax, cut agricultural subsidies, create a quick path to citizenship to increase the supply of workers, impose consumption taxes largely in place of income taxes, a negative income tax in place of typical social welfare programs, legalize soft drugs, nuke Iran, focus heavily on safe fission and funding for fusion, and negotiate a smaller role of America in NATO, to be picked up by our allies, to reduce costs of expensive carrier battle group deployments and overall military spending.
Dictator level powers or president level powers?

1. Cut military spending... only the tanks that the military doesn't even want...
2. No more private jails...
3. Fund the educational system a lot more...
4. Free internet, provided by the government...
5. Free government food (basic things like rice and chicken)
6. Free electricity (putting solar panels on the salt flats)
7. Universal healthcare... (done well, not like obamacare)
8.Legalize all drugs... (then regulate the fuck out of them)
9. Free government clothes... (white tee-shirts, blue jeans, winter jackets, and underwear)
10. Free government made computer (only for basic things... like the internet or Microsoft Word)

While this is true, funding is a real problem.
Quote from: Mad Max on January 22, 2015, 11:04:32 AMWhile this is true, funding is a real problem.I'm always sceptical of that claim since Bush expanded the Dept. of Education's funding by 165pc. I'm sure you know more about the U.S. education system than I do, and we both agree that something ought to be done, but I think the structure of it should be looked at first before any funding alterations are made.
what's wrong with the free computer/food/electricity/clothes?
Quote from: AllAmericanTragedy on January 22, 2015, 11:21:30 AMwhat's wrong with the free computer/food/electricity/clothes?It's completely unnecessary, horribly paternalistic and history has shown that government controls over such goods and services don't work.
it will create more jobs... and it's only basic stuff
And no dodging responsibility, either; no delegations.
Replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with Bill Clinton
