You're the President of the United States for one day. What do you fix?
There’s too much to do, accomplishing even one of these things would be monumental:
Stop poking our nose in foreign affairs (see: Honduras, The Middle East, etc.) so we can focus on making our home a better place
use the money we’re not wasting on useless wars to fix our healthcare, elderly/disability, and veteran benefits
find a way to put greedy companies in check (for medicine, family services, college tuition etc.) and stop them from being allowed to lobby
Senate, HoR, Supreme Court terms.
I would try to abolish parties all together, stop all this divisiveness. Maybe it’s naive to think this- but if we stopped painting people as red or blue, then maybe voters would have to look at a candidate for their merits and not just vote because “they’re not the other side”.
I’d like to start a campaign across America about helping one’s neighbors. Do some good to heal the wounds the last few elections have caused and remind people that we’re all Americans.
harsher punishments for elected officials caught neglecting their duties
More laws on personal privacy; not allowing tech companies to sell personal data
put more effort into conservation of our natural resources
I would seriously revamp the immigration/citizenship process.
Rather than fighting foreign wars, I would install military bases on the southern border for relief efforts. There would be a better vetting process and more hands to help figure out who is Cartel, who is human trafficking, and who is fleeing from the hostilities.
remove embargo on Cuba
make Puerto Rico a state
once America was back on track, I’d help our neighbors.
