This will theoretically increase the purchase rate of goods made and produced in America. We would also like to cut down on the loopholes in the income taxes which will increase the national revenue, as 88% of all the governments revenue comes from income tax. We would also like to put an excise tax on all non energy green company which would eventually push them to be more eco-friendly.]]> 2016-11-28 16:50:02 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140245023 wilsond10 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140782450 The government will put a good portion of the money towards science, energy, and the environment. This will help deal with climate change and allow the United States to advance in technology. This new more advanced technology would not only help halt environmental damage, but it would also give the United States an edge in economic terms. If our technology is greater than that of other nations, then we can produce more goods using clean energy. On top of that, by not spending so much money on military we can focus more on improving other aspects of the country.]]> 2016-11-30 12:55:42 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140782450 wilsond10 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140784433 The government would set a minimum wage similar to what we have now ($7.25), however it would be slightly raised to make the average household income higher. This would also help increase the standard of living. There is no need for guaranteed income, as it would not be beneficial for the economy. Disability and other benefits would be more acceptable.

The government would also encourage the use of clean energy in industry, and industry that produces products in the United States. This would encourage people to buy American goods which would boost the economy while preserving the environment for the future.]]> 2016-11-30 13:04:00 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140784433 carrolll4 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140786122 We will make sure we encourage education in our country. We would like to strive to lower the costs of college so that more and more Americans can have a higher level education. We would also like to nationalize school laws thus raising the standards of public education. This would allow everyone to achieve higher education. Plus, more individuals would be educated about modern issues such as climate change.We would also like to increase government aid in regards to the cost of college for students majoring in  science and medical fields.]]> 2016-11-30 13:10:31 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140786122 wilsond10 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140787697 Industry would be subsidized, but more specifically clean industry. This is because making the switch to clean energy may prove to be somewhat expensive at first. Not to mention that agriculture does not need extensive economic funding.]]> 2016-11-30 13:16:56 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140787697 carrolll4 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140789330 As a Government we must strive to increase competition. This will further lower the price of goods made in the USA, which will then increase the amount of internal spending. We would also like to decrease the amount of taxes on small businesses so that they can compete with large corporations. This would also allow them to flourish instead of being swallowed by the larger businesses.]]> 2016-11-30 13:23:13 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140789330 wilsond10 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140790790 Americans who cannot afford healthcare will be eligable for some form of healthcare provided by the government. This would guarantee that everyone would have their basic medical needs met. ]]> 2016-11-30 13:27:51 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140790790 wilsond10 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140792834 There would not be any additions made to the constitution. This is because we feel that we can accomplish what we wish to do by introducing new laws.]]> 2016-11-30 13:34:28 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140792834 carrolll4 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/140793146 To end poverty we also need to ensure equality and sustainability, so as a government we would take steps to end discrimination. In 2016, 13.5 percent of Americans were living in poverty. That is about 43 million people.

By doing this, we would help promote clean business. Plus, we would not allow tax avoidance for larger Limited Liability Company's. These companies try to avoid the taxes that corporations face. Lastly, we would have certain tax reductions for more earth friendly companies. Not to mention that we intend to impose less taxes on companies that are based in the United States because it would open up jobs for American citizens.]]> 2016-12-01 15:31:13 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/141139078 carrolll4 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/141144642 2016-12-01 15:43:22 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/141144642 carrolll4 https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/141262670 2016-12-01 21:01:20 UTC https://padlet.com/wilsond10/rpojg34blxrb/wish/141262670
