Resolutions 1/5/09

2010 Resolutions for America:

1) Suspend federal education funding until an independent accounting is made. The money is going somewhere and wherever that is it isn't working.

2) Shut down law schools for at least ten years. If you want to be a lawyer you'll have to go elsewhere to study and practice.

3) Drop federal and congressional salaries back to the average median salary of the rest of the country. Sacrifice is only called sacrifice when its everyone sacrificing-Pelosi Politburo included.

4) No more federal funding to countries with terrorist ties, direct or indirect. Period. In the same vein, American companies caught doing business with terrorist-friendly countries will pay a fine double the amount of their best gross-profit fiscal year from among the last twenty.

5) The phrase 'terrorist ties' is redefined to mean 'anyone who has ever carried out, attempted, or spoken out about attempting a terrorist act and has EVER set foot in your country'. If this has happened the US cash cart doesn't stop on your street. No exceptions..

6) Tighten border and airport security. Since blue-eyed Swedish supermodels and 80 year old grandmothers seem not to be terrorist threats the focus in that direction can be redeployed. Numbers 2&5 will help with the implementation of this process.

7) States become responsible for their own fiscal policies, programs, budget shortfalls, and failures. No more federal bucks. If your state wants all of the cool hip bell-and-whistle programs your state legislature figures out on its own how to pay for them. Again, no exceptions.

8) Consolidate all of these government 'lists' into one master list that keeps bomb-carrying terrorist cowards off airplanes.

9) Suspend government hiring from those schools who've contributed the 'best and brightest'. Our government is polluted with people who have all the pretty theoretical stuff down pat but fail miserably in the common sense practical applications department.

10. The election year turnover has to at least match the highest state unemployment rate in the country. If it doesn't, forced retirement of the longest-serving members until percentage is reached.
