Maybe I should run for president with these platform issues.?
Get rid of homeland security they are duplicative of the fbi and cia. apply 1/3 to FBI and 1/3 to CIA of the funds and the remaining to Nasa budget
2. Re-energize Nasa with the goal of sustainable presence on the Moon with the goal of moving on to Mars. This has 2 benefits in that it will help galvanize more young people into science and move basic scientific research forward.
3. Reduce Medicare and Medicaid by means testing Medicare I see no reason to subsidize affluent folks. Medicaid should be sent to the states because federal programs cannot possibly be equal across 50 states because the expenses and populations vary too much.
4. Reduce the military budget to the point that we only support aircraft carriers and their support along with subs. Everything else is excessive because I don't think we need to occupy any other country. Bring all the troops home from everywhere except for a few maybe 1k in each allies country so that it's a trip wire if activated your going to war with us.
5. Get the federal government out of health care entirely they are not competent to manage it and I don't want some bureaucrat telling me what I can and cannot have. At least now I can sue the insurance company with a class active if they screw up. If it is the government in control they can refuse to be sued.
The tax questions are legitimate and to be honest I don't have a detailed answer for it but something to think about. 1 percent tax on everyone making 40k or less just so they have some skin in the game.
25 percent flat tax on corporations on their revenue no deductions. folks making over 40k should get to deduct mortgage and charity because I believe that is fair. No limit on payroll taxes if you make more then you should continue to pay at the same rate everyone else does. I am still thinking about all this because I am not a scholar of the tax codes.
sociald I don't know many folks on medicare still working do you?

You would get more from writing to your Senator or Congressmember with these ideas. That is how our political system is supposed to work. These people do listen to their constituents a little.

Unless you're rich and well connected it is unlikely that you can enter politics in the US. It's unfortunate but true. But I'm sure some people would agree with your platform, not me though.

I could agree with all of that. You need to address tax issues and current lack of over site of banking and stock markets.
