the state of the union
My response to Obama's state of the union address. Don't know why I never did this with Bush. There were things I both agreed and disagreed with and some things I don't know how i feel. All this is off of what i saw.
Yes I do think the state of the union is strong considering the circumstances. One of the things I agree with the president on is when he talked about trade but i want to take it even futher let's not double but triple our exports and reduce some of our imports. Let's even the keel, for the countries who want to charge us a tariff lets charge them slightly higher. by doubling or tripling our trade will drive our manufacturing to new success keeping our jobs here, those jobs will be able to operate better because they will be turning more money so they can keep up with the rising cost of production and all the taxes.
Yes Mr. President you did inherit a bad economy, the war on terror and bad budgets, but Mr. President you talked about the bush economy in your campaign and you talked about responsible fiscal responsibility even though you said you didn't agree with you still did the bailouts and stimulus package. Mr. President all that did was raise the deficeit and the debt. That might stablize the economy but only for a short time every one knows in a free market economy mass debt and deficiets disrupte the markets. You talk about freezing non essential spending next year why not overhaul the entire way the government is run. we don't need to just freeze spending we need to completely overhaul social security, medicare/medicaid, welfare, entitlement spending as a whole, all the prgrams that are considered porkbarrel need to be slashed. what we need to do is make social security to where its for the retired over 65 like its supposed to be the unemployed don't need it. medicare/medicaid needs to be reduced and more restrictions on who can receive need to be raise. welfare needs to be phased out. the people who honestly need it and trying to better their lives should get it and those who aren't take that money and don't spend it. once people start coming off stop spending that. You talked about the tax cuts you made. what tax cuts a 1 time tax credit isn't a tax cut they had to go out and buy a house to get it for those who did or whatever. you talk about health care and bringing in bipartisanship and republicans need to bring in ideas. they do your party won't let them have any say. how about tort reform, less restrictions on insurance companies and allowing competition, all of which will drive costs down. how about instead of raising the amount of debt the government can have lower the level from the current amount of 12 trillion to 3 trillion forcing the government to reform and balance the budget. how about halting the stimulus money. how about giving oil companies that invest in drilling oil here stateside a tax cut to offset the cost. hwo about reducing the capital gains tax from 15% to 12.5% as well as abolish death tax and reduce budget as if we cut cap gains tax from 15% to 0% then over the next few years afterward cut cap gains tax by 40% each time. telling colleges to reduce cose of tuition well Barack they do have bills to pay, equipment, teachers to pay so how can they reduce cost. instead of telling the insurance, health, oil companies to reduce cost and stop blowing money why don't you as president follow suit, and keep your word that you will pay off the 1 trillion of extra debt you created it off as well as quickly getting rid of debt bush and his congress made. you talk about the bad bank policies. well i will give bush this did he wanted to reform freddie mac, fannie mae and all the other banks and put in a restriction on banks and loan companies as to how much they can loan out making it harder for people with low income and bad credit to get loans that they can't pay back but you and rest of democratic party shut that down, our recession would not be as bad if the restrictions would be allowed. how about selling off what of the auto industry and banks the government paid off and bought back to people putting that part of these companies back into the private sector. how about getting rid of the restrictions on domestic drilling and let business's buy the abandoned oil rigs and get them operational again and start domestic drilling there's energy independance for ya maybe. how about a 30% reduction in the income tax for people who make under 250,000 a year, a 15% for those who make 250,000 to 1,000,000 and a 10$ for those who make more and reduce the budget as if we cut it 50% across the board. thats all for now i'll update once i remember more.
