What Will They Do?

[Sonny Clark]

Beginning in January 2017, we'll have a new president. In your opinion, what positive, meaningful, and beneficial legislation and policy, will the new president and Congress enact between January 2017 and January 2021? The question does not ask what a Republican or a Democrat will do, nor does it ask what a Republican or Democrat majority in Congress will do. The question is not asking anything about a party, it is simply asking what positive, meaningful, and beneficial legislation and policy will be enacted by the new president and Congress. This is not a party politics question.

Also, in your opinion, will any new legislation and policies be long-lasting, and stand against time? In your opinion, will any new legislation and policies benefit the whole of the nation, or benefit a select group or class?

My top choice - redo the federal income tax code - both corporate and individual taxes. Lower overall rates but keep the changes revenue neutral by getting rid of most credits and deductions. Make all income taxable at the same rate, including investment income.

 

[hazlnut]

Banning corporate lobbyists.

High regulation of off-shore tax shelters and banking.

Raise taxes on the wealthy and super-wealthy.

Double the size of the ATF.

Legalize Marijuana.

Use the US military to take down the drug cartels and seize their financial recourses under RICO.

Path to citizenship of migrant workers.

Phase out coal and carbon emissions energy making.

Put white collar criminals into maximum security prisons.

Register all assault weapons.

Use drones to take out American Taliban groups like tea party extremists.

Cut military spending.

So, you honestly believe that they'll do all of that? You honestly believe that they'll accomplish all of those things? Remember, the question was what do you think they'll do, not what you hope they'll do.

Say goodbye to sequestration.
Say goodbye to Saturday mail delivery
Say goodbye to tax loopholes (on a limited basis).
Say hello to more federal transportation rehab projects
Say hello to more aid to needy children with strings attached

I think it is going to happen regardless of whom is elected next November.

Since it takes the concurrence of the House, Senate and President to pass legislation, ignoring which political party will control each of these institutions renders these questions rather meaningless. For example, would the ACA have been passed with a Republican President or Congress?

If you are trying to make some point, why not spell it out?

I could agree with all you suggested except investment income.
Taxing the crap out of that will stifle growth.

My point is: There are many die hard Republicans and many die hard Democrats. We hear the constant back-and-forth arguments daily as to which party is best for America and her citizens. But, rarely do we hear what each group honestly believes will take place once either one is elected in November 2016. In other words, both Republicans and Democrats bash the other party, but what exactly do they actually think "THEIR" party will accomplish from January 2017 until January 2021, that'll be positive, meaningful, and beneficial to ALL AMERICANS? Both sides complain about what the other party has done, but rarely do they say what will happen, or what they honestly believe will happen, once the 2016 election is over and a winner is declared.

Everyone knows what has already taken place in politics and in government, and each side blames the other side for our problems. But, what will either party do after the election 2016? What do you honestly believe will take place, not what you hope takes place? American voters show little or no faith in their party when put on the spot and asked to say what they honestly believe the legislation and policies will be. Their usual response is, "if the other party doesn't get in the way, my party will do this or that." They never said, "my party will do this or that regardless of politics by the other side. In other words, neither side has any idea as to what the political game will be, yet they are constantly bashing party, liberal, conservative, moderate, rights, and lefts. But, to hear them boast and complain, they know exactly what'll take place if their candidate is elected. They're so sure that their party is the right party for this country, but haven't got the slightest clue as to what any of them will do.

So, my question is, "what do you honestly believe will happen after the 2016 election, beginning in January 2017, and running until January 2021?" What do you honestly believe will be the legislation and policies for those 4 years? Not what you hope happens, but do you honestly believe will happen. If voters can't answer that question, then they are just going through the motions hoping to get the desired results from their party. Yet, they constantly bash, brow-beat, and slam the other party.

If we elect Jeb or hillary we can expect more of the same.

To that, the answer is same old same old. The congress won't do much of anything, even with a republican in the white house.

Blah blah blah! They are not the same. You can start a hundred threads trying to bore people into agreeing with you....it won't change the facts. The two parties are vastly different.

I gave you this question in another thread. You dodged the answer. How about trying harder?

If it has not happened by then, the new Administration and Congress will pass comprehensive immigration reform which grants a path to legal status or citizenship for our illegal immigrant population.

This will be regardless of which party is in the White House or which party controls Congress.

If a Republican is President, we will see tax reform which closes a lot of loopholes, and ends a lot of deductions, credits, and exemptions.

Nothing that is what Washington does best.

If Republicans control the House, Senate and Presidency, we will have a repeat of the 1980 election with lower taxes, expanding economy and some restoration of our military capabilities. The biggest difference would be not having to accede to House Democrats' demands for increased social spending at the same time, although interest on the national debt will take up the slack. A wild card is be whether there would be enough support at the State level for a Constitutional Convention to constrain federal spending and return more power to the States.

If Hillary or some other Democrat wins, we will continue our decline into eventual third world status.

We will have prison reform regardless of which party is in office. In fact

I agree, but with a Republican President the border will be made more secure before a lengthier path to citizenship is approved.
