How about a one-year moratorium on new laws?

Let's just take this just one step further. We have a presidential candidate right now as I type this who'll take an ax and chop out huge chunks of the government and the accompanying laws. Get this: This means bye bye Homeland security and patriot act, Bye Bye IRS to be replaced by NOTHING, bye bye federal reserve (it' a private bank and NOT a government agency yet it controls our money -- look at the dollar bill), and on and on. that person is:

Ron Paul.

Go type his name into youtube and watch anything that pops up.

Oh, and here's his credentials:

He has never voted to raise taxes.

He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.

He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.

He has never voted to raise congressional pay.

He has never taken a government-paid junket.

He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.

He voted against the Patriot Act.

He voted against regulating the Internet.

He voted against the Iraq war.

He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.

He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.

Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.

Disastrous! We are still trying to climb out from under some laws which were created as an 'act' of the pResident!
