We can easily bring back the American Dream with the right people involved in politics. This would be to ship our jobs back to America and gain a new understanding of how America can help itself. This would take time and money but in the end America will be much better off.

The govt should reduce taxes as this will put more money into the pockets of Americans and they will spend as they wish. Right now America needs consumers to spend. At the same time they should find ways to reduce waste in spending which is the first step to deficit reduction.

Background: Politicians need to pay their share and set a good example for others. When they are sworn into office, they swear to uphold the law. Upholding the law includes paying taxes, unless they want to go on the books and swear that taxes are illegal and exempt us all. Policy: All government employees who hold office MUST PAY ALL TAXES in order to vote and to receive their paycheck. They must be observing all laws in order to hold an office and must resign if they are not. If they get behind in taxes, they must have it taken out of their pay until it is paid in full and they cannot vote for anything until paid in full. This will probably mean public outrage by their constituents who will immediately demand their resignation and replacement with a law-abiding citizen of their choice; if so, a special election should be held.

If we make college education cheaper, more Americans will be able to go to college and receive higher degrees. This leads to modern lasting jobs in the current global system. Thus, Americans will have a higher standard of living buying more stuff and overall improving the country and society. Thus, further enabling a culture of expansion and the American Dream.

Small business are the engine of the American economy and we do not see any type of direct economic stimulus assistance being offered to small businesses.

One idea is to offer a 3 year tax break of about 25% so that small businesses can make investments of their choice rather than the government telling us where we need to spend to get tax breaks.

This type of policy has worked very well in other countries.
