LIST OF GOALS

If you don't like what I've done, please change it.

If it's got one "-", then it's a category unto itself, and if it has two "--", then it's "under that category". I envision that the categories will roll up and become "the goals", and the details will be targetted milestones under a specific goal.

CATEGORIES AND GOALS

SHIFT TAX BURDEN

- Zero-Sum Budget the Tax Code
- Flat Tax (no deductions)
- High Tax on "money-on-money" transactions/income
- Tax companies that are not "zero-waste" and those who do not adhere to "Extended Producer Responsibility" standards

ELECTORAL & CAMPAIGN REFORM

  • Publically funded elections
  • Free/equal prime time airtime w/major broadcast stations, as a permit condition , for all candidates on the ballot
  • Proportional Representation & Instant Run Off Voting
  • Abolish the electoral college (popular vote for President wins)

MONETARY/BANKING REFORM

-- Dodd-Frank (get it done! been in committee controlled by derivatives industry forever!) -- End the Fed (put the soverienty control back in the hands of the people)

ESTABLISH A "STRONG COMMONS"

by Restoring Inalienable Rights to Individuals/Environment

- Amend the constitution to declare the right to basic healthcare, basic income, basic shelter healthy food, clean air/water
- Amend the constitution to end the corporatocracy and restore inalienable natural rights to individuals and the environment
- Repeal NDAA


Not sure where these go:

- Nationalize the Healthcare System
- Give racial minorities first use rights to wide ranging commons that encompass air, open land, housing and water


We can do ACTIONS NEXT. Let's keep this list to GOALS? Refer to President Franklin Delano Roosvelt's 1944 State of the Union Address wherein he advocated a second U.S. Bill of Rights, a U.S. Economic Bill of Rights. Search FDR 1944 State of the Union.
