The problem is ytou have raising taxes.

But like, that implies that they will come after small businesses owners and people trying to mind their own business with meager lives, like it does now.

And I want to raise them but raise them by like 50x anything anyone would rationally think raising taxes means. And I'd want to target politicians first, and then like, man do we go to town on the billionares they're going to be jumping from buildings left and right.

Boost legal immigration
Increase Farm Production
Investment in Railway (more railways) - Cargo Shipping raised inflation by 1000% before the Biden’s Ocean Reform Act.
- now invest in our domestic delivery methods

Remove cap on immigrant visas for STEM doctoral graduates and create a new “start-up visa” for immigrant entrepreneurs. This proposal is in the COMPETES Act.

Fill unused past green card slots and allow spouses and children of green card holders to obtain one without counting against the 140,000 cap.

Allow and expedite the processing of more refugees from Ukraine.

Increase H1B and other work visas that could help in labor shortage sectors.

Use any existing executive authority to increase legal immigration limits.

Extend all work visas for an additional 12 months.

Allow spouses and children of those here on work visas to work.

Give certainty to DACA recipients by automatically reapproving their status.

Call for comprehensive immigration reform.

Congress could override the decision made on July 16, 2021.

Will they? Probably not.

But still worth brainstorming as you asked.

Economic reset, wipe it clean. Start from scratch. Also confiscate all military and police power. And delete the alphabetti sphaghetti agencies (executively of course).


actually none of that is correct ... wont work ... unfeasable... a very temporary solution (won't last longer than a decade or two) ... will have a huge cost in population

so a combination of rationing + wage controls + limits on property ownership and just make the state even bigger (this is inevitable anyway) --- so pretty much the opposite of my original impulse. Everyone joins the military and wages very limited.

also could change currencie but the current powerful ppl can't have more initial buying power, tho they do because they already own all the factories...

i'm not really a communist [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] just a pragmatist and this is a disaster of a situation because I see no means or way out of it except via force (wastefull anyway (only kills the best of us or traumatizes ppl)) and all paths lead to a temporary 'solution'. like u could redistribute wealth by force, butt it's not going to last more than... like 15 years tops. ish ... i mean we are definitely not an honest enough people to make it 20 years... we are so corrupt and bad and dishonest we don't deserve wealth redistribution. We can't govern ourselves let alone our neighboors and people like musk will quickly rise to the top again anyway. It's all pointless. Just take the breaks off plz.

I do think we could build a really fast spaceship tho, maybe with slave labor also. The more I think about it global communism is more in favor of the ppl with all the power/money already if they find a way to peacefully transition there. Their families are already in positions of power so can easily keep those positions. For individual stats and cities and families to gain soveriengty and freedom from government oversite of big governments would be an absolute threat to this system. So no making and selling cupcakes unless you have an international licence. (sourcasms, butt also for reals, aka its not what I want it is what it is)
