| #7 ...Consolidation of power in Washington and centralized control of the U.S. More globalization. More taxes. Ceding authority of the U.S. to groups like the U.N. More money for global warming. A sharp left turn towards socialism and communism and ecofacism... |

| #5 Bold Moves. Eradicate corporate, capital gains, sales and income taxes. Regulate the credit part of the currency properly. Have a Property (Land + IP) Value Tax to prevent rent-seeking. Get rid of the "welfare" state, and replace with a flat citizens dividend. Stupid Moves. Punish Employers, Investors, purchasers and workers with a large fine. Try to keep a credit bubble inflated. Keep zombie businesses alive by draining good businesses. Reward those who do least to help themselves. |

| #4 Cutting corporate, capital gains and income taxes a minimum of 30% would be bold action. This is just more of the "corporatism" (aka fascism) that the elites crave. |

| #3 A lengthy slump is inevitable. The amount of pain & destruction can be somewhat ameliorated. |
