20 Rays of light to Help Fix our Economy Written by Oliver H. Greenbagg copyright 2009 1. President Obama, please send millions of American styled clothes to Iraq to give their citizens a choice of how to dress. This program can act as a conduit to setting up clothing stores that will become part of the Iraqi economy system. If Iraq citizens were, truly given their freedom it should include separation of state and religion, which should include the right to wear clothes of their choice. If America ever expects to stop the fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, we must Americanize their people to defeat the principals of Bin Laden. Female suicide bombers will not be able to hide bombs under their sleek fitting American styled clothes. This policy will be met by some Iraqi criticisms, but many new standards in America were met with resistance also (racial equality, womens rights and of course we still debate the gay issue). Iraqi women should have a choice to wear what they want to wear without worrying about their national religious restrictions. 2. Restore the right for Americans to deduct the interest portion of their American vehicle loans off of their income taxes. This will level the competition between American companies and foreign companies. If foreign automobile companies pay less employee related expenses, retirements why are their vehicles priced as high as American vehicles.
3.
Economic
stimulus programs should include contingencies to give consumers
incentives to purchase more products to create more business. This will
increase manufacturers orders that will lead to more jobs filled which
means government will receive more tax money. 4. More government control of utilities cost. 5. Restructure highway taxes to be collected separate from gasoline sales and according to a formula that uses miles driven to arrive at how much drivers should pay for highway taxes. This will encourage Automobile manufacturers to speed up the production of high mileage and eventually solar/wind natural powered vehicles. For more information on the MILEAGE DRIVEN TAXATION SYSTEM (MDTS) please send us an e-mail with MDTS in the subject line. Government needs to maintain the collection of highway/infrastructure taxes to maintain American roadways and bridges. This plan will provide for the quickened event of mass produced---- high mileage/ natural powered, vehicles. America needs to stop its' dependence on foreign oil as well as discontinue vehicle emissions to slow global warming. 6. Declare Internet purchases illegal, unless products are purchased through government monitored websites. All purchases made through the Internet are liable to pay taxes to the state where the purchase was originally made from. 7. Enforce Indian treaties, but also enforce US citizen responsibility to pay taxes on non-taxed goods that are brought back into America. Make Americans responsible to pay their taxes! 8. Restrict continuous development out into rural areas to protect our farms, forests and wild life. There are many areas that can be made new again, that are within metropolitans. 9. Reformulate development zones back into cities and metropolitans. Blocks of communities should be, re-developed to make localities new again. Consideration should be given, to save buildings within metro areas that are still viable. 10. Stimulus Monies should be given to the 350 million American citizens with contingencies attached to give incentives to buy consumer products. This plan will provide for manufacturers to expand production and employees. 11. Expand Internal Revenue Service staffing to provide for increased efforts to collect money from delinquent accounts. Currently there are billions of dollars owed to the IRS that, should be collected. 12. Lower all elected officials salaries down to $1.00 per year. Most candidates spend large amounts of money to win prestigious elections that shows they really do not need the money. 13. Re-designate all money paid out as bonuses to administrators, be re-calculated to the 50% taxation bracket, as bonuses are not part of the wage earned system. 14. Immediately band the manual and electronic transfer of American monies to off shore accounts. Money earned in America, should stay in America. 15. Start a program to immediately refit all vehicles in America with necessary FLEX-LINES to give capability to burn non-fossil oil fuels such as gasohol that is agricultural based. This plan will hurry our efforts to stop using imported oil that creates global warming and international enemies. 16. Increase the production of the agricultural products of Soybeans, to be used in the making of plastics. By using Soybeans in the manufacturing of plastics we can slow the emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. To expand on this technique the agricultural product of Hemp should be reconsidered to be used in the fabric industry. Certain subsidies can be enacted to make these products cost effective until they have taken the place of chemical based raw materials. 17. Lobby the United Nations to create their own Army that would come from all member nations. This new Army would become the new world police force, and no individual country would bear the responsibility to enforce rules and regulations to countries that are a risk to world peace. 18. Immediately fund, the expansion of wind and solar energy development to include the latest technologies available. Dedicate more research to the development of individual self-developing natural powered vehicles. Currently the cost of transported products to market as well as the individual expense of fueling our domestic vehicles adds 18% to our products and personal transportation expense. The current use of fossil fuel is a non-recoverable expense that leads to even more environmental expenses and should be outlawed in the United States of America. 19. Immediately pass laws that make government officials held responsible for large financial losses suffered through their neglect to investigate fully the matter of their handling of, citizens money 20. Create laws that legalize the importation of Mexican Immigrants workers and hold their employers responsible to pay federal and state income taxes on the wages earned and paid.
