|- Everyone needs a seat at the table. I have a plan on how to get college or trade school and pay with paid 2 years or 4 years of paid military or public service, a 17% flat tax except those who are below 300% of the poverty level. I have a plan to eliminate Medicaid fraud and restore the Veteran's Administration medical system together whereby there would be a presence at every hospital to take care of Veterans and the poor. This will help emergency rooms to pay for the care of the poor by moving their treatment elsewhere in the hospital.
- The National Equity Atlas estimates that 12.4 million people in the US are working poor, which is a significant increase from 1980 when the number was less than 7 million. Over 50 thousand children sleep on the street every night just in Los Angeles. Over 250,000 American Veterans sleep on the street every night. In both Biden and Trump’s presidency there are over 500 thousand sleeping on the street. There are over 500 thousand prisoners who will be released soon because of marijuana laws and will need to work. You may ask how we can offer homes for the homeless and their families, food, health and training for anyone who needs it? There are over 15 million homes that have been abandoned. We need to reorganize the Works Progress Admin.
- I believe that money, or equipment should never be given without payback with interest. We should have a clearly defined path for citizenship and statehood. We should offer statehood to Puerto Rico and Guam. We should also offer territory to Panama, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Haiti, the many states of Mexico, the States of Canada, Israel and Palestine, Ukraine and Soviet Georgia. The first thing the country must do is put it to the general vote and would first become a territory, as Guam and Puerto Rico did. Then it must come to a national vote to become a state. I don’t think we should ever offer a blank check with no payback.
