ECONOMY DOWN!

It's no great secret that America's economy sucks a big one. My first proposition is to do an (almost) complete overhaul of Congress. Most (especially old Mitch McConnell) have been in there way too long, have grown used to power, and have grown comfortable in the pockets of some large corporations. This is how NDAA, SOPA, PIPA, PCIPA, and countless other recent bill have been started simply to appease the large corporations. We need to root out all these corrupt, ignorant idiots and fill it in with a bit more progressive politicians. I think the president has some good ideas on how to fix the economy, but do to a large Conservative Congress population, many stifle these ideas and never let them see the light of day. This failure of ideas is attributed to the President rather than the stubborn myopic conservative senators.

Another large problem I see is with crime. I believe marijuana alone should be decriminalized. This means it's not legal, like sold in stores and legal to do on street corners, but one doesn't go to prison for possession. It's a complete waste of taxpayers money to keep idiots like that in prison. Instead, I believe in gargantuan, completely un-affordable fines to discourage users while also gathering large revenue. Drug users can get over a sentence in jail, but they might think twice about smoking weed when it could cost all of their money. And of course, they wouldn't have a problem stopping when necessary because it's not "addicting" and they know when to stop, right? Whatever...
