America should pull in all its troops from foreign countries, cease all aide to foreign countries that aren't strong allies, and simply close our borders altogether to anyone without the proper papers issued by OUR border people. Let them come to the borders, and be processed, much like Ellis Island.
Then, funnel all that money we waste in a war on Iraq, waste on what amounts to essentially funding war leaders in most African nations, all the money we waste on negotiations with countries like Russia and Saudi Arabia and Kuwait that do nothing but drain our resources, funnel all that money into social aide programs. Funnel it into jobs here in America. Raise the minimum wage, give all legal citizens complete health care, push for huge medical research bills, and new energy sources (while we rely on what we have in the meantime).
Give tax breaks to companies that hire legal citizens.
Give tax breaks to agricultural producers.
We should use some of those hundreds of billions of dollars we waste on ungrateful foreign third world wastes of life to pay our nation's educators the wage they deserve for helping so many of us to look forward and pull ourselves out of the gutter.
Finally: Americans, stop letting your politicians lead you around by the goatstrings. They throw common issues at you: religion in schools, abortion, and the evils of being the other party, every year around election time, in the hope that you will forget how badly they've run your district/state/nation for the last 4 to 6 years. Please, remember the mistakes, and vote in better candidates, whether democrat, republican, independent, or the monkey-like-banana party, because without using your vote and voice as a human, politicians will continue to steal from us and cheat us.
