I don't agree with every one of these suggestions. But I gotta admit, Wayne's off to a pretty good start.
Hi, Claire,
I've never read your little book but maybe I will if I ever find the time. I hear people talk about what to do before the revolution, but nobody has a thing to say about what to do after the revolution. I consider that to be every bit as important. So I put together a short list. Read, enjoy, use any or all of it as you wish.
A few things to do after the revolution.
1. Kill all the lawyers.
2. Hang all the judges.
3. Burn at the stake every elected or appointed public official.
4. Burn every Government building that is used to store records on the people.
5. Repeal the 16TH amendment.
6. Disband the Army until such time as a declaration of war is passed by congress.
7. Place the USAF under the Army. The Coast Guard and the Marines are already under the Navy.
8. Disband the State Guard and Reserve. Let the Civilian Militia fill the void.
9. Disarm the civil police force.
10. Set up public shooting ranges in every community.
11. Repeal the tax-exempt status of every church.
12. Rewrite the tax code so that it fits on a 3 by 5 index card, double spaced, 10cpi, one side only.
13. Eliminate public funding of the school system.
14. Eliminate Social Security.
15. Return all Federally owned property to the State that it is in. This includes the Termination of all National parks and monuments.
16. Deed over the Indian Reservations to those people that actually live on them. Terminate reservation and tribal recognition and be done with the problem. Let them live without the BIA holding them back.
17. Terminate the following list of Federal Gov. agencies. DEA, FBI, ATF, FHA, CIA, NSA, NASA, FAA, USSS, EPA, IRS, GAO, USGS, BIA, NHTSA, NTSB, Department of the Interior, Department of Agriculture, National Park Service, BLM, US Fish and Wildlife Service, CDC, National Center for infectious disease, US State Department, NOAA, INS, (insert alphabet soup agency here). Or in other words, everything not specifically spelled out as a Federal function in the Constitution.
18. End the Gov. subsidy of all political parties.
19. End the electoral college
20. Mandate that the winner of any election must have more than 50 percent of the popular vote to win. No run off election between the two or three highest placed, just keep voting until somebody gets more than 50 percent.
21. Restrict each States legal code to something that can be put into a standard three ring binder. 8&1/2 by 11 paper, 10cpi, double spaced, one side only. To a maximum of 10 pages. English only, no Latin words or phrases, no double negative language. Mandate that this code is to be available on demand to anyone. People can make there own Xerox copy.
22. Restrict the Federal legal code to something that can be put into a standard three ring binder. 8&1/2 by 11 paper, 10cpi, double spaced, one side only. To a maximum of 5 pages. This includes the tax code. English only, no Latin words or phrases, no double negative language. Mandate that this code is to be available on demand to anyone. People can make there own Xerox copy.
23. Nuke the UN building.
24. Make unconstitutional any law that is based on immoral behavior between consenting adults or people doing to themselves.
25. Shoot anyone that proposes legislation that is based on, saving the children, Public decency standards, Public liability(Mandatory insurance), Morality, or Public health threats by casual contact, or protecting the environment form imagined threats.
26. Outlaw any ideas of fixing past wrongs with new wrongs. Specifically affirmative action quotas based on race, sex, sexual perversion, religion, or whatever else somebody can dream up.
27. And last but not least. Draw and Quarter any bastard that ever even thinks. "I know what is best for you. Let me help you" Because we the people do not need or want anybody's help. All we want is to be left alone. To live by our own brilliant smarts or die by our own screw ups.
Wayne
(P.S. from Claire) Of course, we must conduct scrupulously fair trials before dispatching the folks in items 1-3. And Wayne's idea of a federal tax code is far, far too complex. The entire code should read: "Considering a tax? See item 27." (And no trial on that offense!) Other than that: Nice job, Wayne!
