Things that should be done

In no particular order, here are some things which are not always popular but should be done.

• Pass an Amendment to the Constitution, that gives the President a line item veto of any spending measure. Who in the world could be against this? The really big government people I guess.
• Start a two pronged attack on our dependence on foreign oil. Allow drilling on the moonscape in northern Alaska, and begin a wartime shift from oil to hydrogen. See phoenixproject.net
• Pass a Guest Worker program which does not reward illegal aliens.
• Get an exit strategy. Not for Iraq or Afghanistan, we have plans there but for Germany, Japan, Korea, the Balkans and any other place we have no national interest in being there.
• Follow through with a plan to get men to Mars.
• Use the buying power of Medicare Care to get competitive bids on prescription prices.
* Use Shot Spot for professional tennis matches
