America used to be massively ahead of the EU, atleast from what I saw. Now, I think America is in a difficult situation. And I'm not sure they know exactly what to do..
When I sit around brainstorming policy ideas with my pro-revolutionary friends and comrades, these are the basic policy ideas we arrive at, with some variation.
*I* would do the following-
1- Repudiate all foreign owned debt. Foreigners who have accumulated large amounts of worthless federal reserve notes [the Fed printed trillions of new dollars in 2010 alone] will not be allowed to use inked paper to buy up this nation. China is already buying up huge tracts of land in the American northwest.
2- Invalidate all foreign purchases of American public/national infrastructure made by foreigners in the last 30 years. There is no reason for Arab states to own the Ohio turnpike [state toll highway] or the Pennsylvania turnpike. These roads belong to our people.
3- Invalidate the USD and declare the issuance of a New Dollar, perhaps to be called the New American Dollar or the Jefferson Dollar. The currency will be fully convertible in gold and/or silver. All previous issue of the USD, the worthless paper Federal Reserve note, will be convertible into New Dollars, but at a miniscule rate. Since the old American dollar [federal reserve note] is not a claim on gold or silver, it will not be worth much, but perhaps 1000 dollars in Federal Reserves notes will = 5 Jefferson Dollars and thus be worth an ounce or two of silver. It is not yet agreed what the base unit of the new currency should be. I have argued for 1 new dollar = 1/16th [or 1/8th] an ounce of silver while some of my revolutionary friends believe 1 new dollar should = 1 ounce of silver.
4- Dismantle all US military bases located outside of the USA with possibly a half-dozen exceptions.
5- Disband NATO or at least withdraw from NATO and let the other member states figure out what they want to do.
6- Withdraw from the United Nations and let the organization fall apart, or stay in the UN and use security council veto to keep anything from getting done in the way of infringing the rights of the people and spreading globalism and global government.
7- Detain all illegal aliens and anybody who has received amnesty and place them in detention camps.
8- Consider using all detained illegals to build a massive series of fortifications along the entire US/Mexican border. Also consider demanding Mexico establish a 5 mile "no go" zone whereby no Mexican may live within 5 miles of the US/Mexican border. This "no go" zone will then become a canal as a canal is dug from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean, making further crossing very difficult. At any rate, canal or no canal, zone or no zone, on the American side a massive wall will be erected, along with minefields, observation towers, and then command centers and platoon sized outposts at regular intervals. In 2003 there were 141 instances where armed/uniformed Mexican soldiers crossed into the USA, all of this was documented by Congressman Tom Tancredo [this was the year I completed an essay/report on the topic]. To my knowledge nobody is documenting how bad it may be today, but Mexican soldiers, in uniform, have been found providing security for drug couriers and they have fired on American citizens and American police officers. This situation will not be allowed to continue.
9- Once the walls are complete all previously detained illegals will be deported. Any of them who had "anchor babies" will have the option of taking their baby with its supposed "anchor citizenship" with them or they can leave their baby in an alley or in the woods.
10- Abolish the Federal Reserve [this goes along with earlier points]
11- Repudiate NAFTA and CAFTA.
12- Establish national right to work policies.
13- Repeal the 1934 NFA, 1968 GCA, and the 1986 Hughes Amendment.
14- Disband the ATF.
15- Disband the DEA.
16- Disband the EEOC and end all government sponsored/mandated policies of affirmative action.
17- End all new deal programs established by FDR that were initially declared unconstitutional and were only declared constitutional when he threatened to pack the Supreme Court with 6 additional justices and force most of the sitting justices to retire.
18- Abolish the programs established by LBJ that defined his "Great society" scheme.
19- Outlaw property tax, outlaw inheritance tax, outlaw capital gains tax, outlaw sales tax, outlaw payroll tax, outlaw income tax. The government will fund itself through tolls, duties, tariffs, and the sale of government property.
20- Decrease the size of all branches of the military. Place most heavy equipment in storage, sell large amounts of equipment to local revolutionary militia groups which will be formed and tasked with community/national defense, and sell large amounts of the rest of the equipment to reliable foreign nations.
21- Announce a jubilee year [the bible says total debt forgiveness once every 50 years, America is supposed to be a Christian nation and now is as good a time as any to start observing the Jubilee]. Banks have been bailed out, wall-street has not only had its debts forgiven but it has had its debts forced onto the backs of small business owners, farmers, factory workers, and others in the American middle class and lower working class. A jubilee means that in the USA all student loans are invalidated, all mortgages are invalidated, all credit cards are invalidated, all debts are abolished.
22- In keeping with the jubilee, abolish usury, which means no interest paying instruments may be issued or traded. Nobody may loan unto usury or receive a usury based loan from another. After credit card debts and mortgages are abolished in the jubilee there will never be credit cards again in the USA, at least not based on interest/usury.
