Start of Presidency

Step 1: Stock pile Wildfire

Step 2: "Burn them all!"

Well if I was president, id be shot, so I'll assume you mean if I had significant power.

How would you handle these issues
Illegal Immigration - Amnesty to all undocumented Immigrants.
The Wars in the Middle East - Instantly end, cut the military budget as much as possible, allow more room for civilian militias. Order the military to stand down to any popular revolt. Leave the people to sort out who rules.
Universal Healthcare - Completely fund run healthcare services via consumer/worker(50/50 split in power) cooperative health "unions".
The Economic Crisis - Hand over all control of the economy to cooperatives, encourage citizen reorganization of the economic system.
War With Iran - No war ever, end all aggression.
War With North Korea - No war ever, end all aggression.
Use of Torture - Cease at once.
Government Surveillance on Citizens - Cease at once.
Space Exploration - Let cooperatives explore space as they wish.
Gay's Rights - Fully recognize all sexual and gender identity's as equal. Call for the citizens to end gender roles. Abolish government recognition of marriage at all.
Enviormentalism - Leave to be decided by the citizens.
Abortion - Let women abort as they wish.
Legalization of Marijuana - Fully legalize all drugs.
Education Reform - Hand over control of education to the teachers and students via Democratic schooling organizations.
Stance on Unions - Fully support and require union membership. Mandate that unions be direct democratic.

and finally, encourage public overthrow of this government at once.

Illegal Immigration - if they have no skills with which to support themselves, they will be put into a temporary detention centre where they would be processed and if not deemed able to enter, they will be deported.

The Wars in the Middle East - pull out all non-essential troops and switch to more precise guided missile attacks on terrorist threats.

Universal Healthcare - basics would be free, i.e damaged bone treatment, minor surgery etc... all others would require out-of-pocket expense or insurance, the health department needs to be able to support itself, after all.

The Economic Crisis - bring in "public works", a system where large amounts of unemployed take part in open unskilled labour projects, famously used by hitler.

War With Iran - revoke iran's ability to have all but a small defence force, no missiles or bombs.

War With North Korea - put large amounts of effort into separating china from north korea, then act through the south

Use of Torture - doesn't work anyway.

Government Surveillance on Citizens - enable an act where the secret service can revoke a person's citizenship, rendering them unable to leave the country or even buy alcohol.

Space Exploration - give NASA a massive budget for their projects

Gay's Rights - give the right to be married, can't stop them being together even if i didn't let them marry.

Environmentalism - invest in a transition over to cleaner, more abundant hydrogen fuel.

Abortion - abortions under 4 months and contraception completely free, refusal to sell contraception results in a shut down of the business

Legalisation of Marijuana - legalise it to be sold out of government sanctioned stores, where do you think i'm getting the NASA budget from?

Education Reform - free schooling from kindergarten to high school, subsidised tutor services will be provided.

Stance on Unions - government controlled only. can't have some selfish workers harming civilians

Illegal Immigration - Have them integrate and legalise it, if they refuse, they can go back to wherever they came from.

The Wars in the Middle East - They're pointless and can only be lost, get the hell out as soon as possible and only return if the countries ask for it.

Universal Healthcare - Not sure how it works here right now, but it sounds all right, so yeah.

The Economic Crisis - I'll get some ministers to do this shit, I suck at economics.

War With Iran - I think it was Iran that said we Dutch are intolerant, so we'll flip 'em off for that. As for the rest, we'll leave them alone. They're no threat.

War With North Korea - They're ever less of a threat than Iran, so...

Use of Torture - Out of the question.

Government Surviellence on Citizens - Only when deemed absolutely necessary.

Space Exploration - There are much more pressing matters at hand. Besides, we have some crazy company that's going to Mars, so...

Gay's Rights - That's hardly an issue here anymore.

Enviormentalism - We have organisations for that, some of which I personally disapprove of.

Abortion - Keep it as it is.

Legalization of Marijuana - Make it even more legal than it already is, the tourism that we get from it brings in fucktons of money.

Education Reform - Educational systems are horrible here. That might've just been my school, though. Still, it needs more money spent efficiently. Scrap the fucking culture budget, that shit is useless anyway.

Stance on Unions - I'll get a minister to fix that. If anything's wrong with it, I wouldn't know.

Hey, more cameras in public means less officers on staff. Food for thought.

i disagree with this...

I thought the Space Exploration part was pretty cool.

the space exploration money will be non-existent after he's paid for healthcare, immigrants, the economy, environmental research and all the court cases for people who haven't done anything wrong and will obviously cause a general uprising.

I don't think he actually plans on paying for any of this.

30% of the rest goes to other scientific purposes, and most of the military itself would be disbanded. I'd replace the police/military with regional militias, and keep only a small conventional military force (About 100'000 people).

@theteremaster If we don't have enough money left over, then we'll build work camps, and have the Banksters/Lobbyists/Politicians build the houses/medical clinics/solar farms. Hell, we'll even pay them a wage for doing it. How much is the average American-owned sweatshop worker paid in US cents, again?

@theteremaster, don't worry, this kind of thing would fail immediately.

Are you going to provide any sort of argument, or are you just going to throw around that anti-communist cool aid? The work camp thing was a joke, by the way.

What? No Trotskyist perpetual international revolution or Red Army?

I'd probably send a lot of aid/volunteers to socialist parties/organizations around the world, to help them in their various struggles/revolutions. In terms of conventional military policy though, full isolationist, unless we got another Nazi-Germany or something. So, no Red army.

Well that's no fun at all.

The Red army was an awesome concept, but in the end, it just became a symbol of nationalism. I was thinking that the militias could be called something like 'The Red Guard' or 'People's revolutionary guard' if that makes up for it at all.
