Campaign reform! You should not need to be a multi-millionaire to become President. The post should not be bought. There should be a rule that all candidates cannot spend more than a certain reasonable amount of money. Major TV stations should air a few free debates, and all other campaigning should be done on limited budgets. The citizens of this country would be thankful to not have to sit through endless (and usually full of lies) commercials for a year.
End tax deductions for children. If you choose to have kids, great, but they are YOUR financial responsibility. I can't deduct my cats (all of which have cost me thousands in vet bills) and people shouldn't get out of paying taxes because they have kids. I read an article that said a huge percentage of people in the U.S. don't pay any taxes after they deduct everything imaginable. I'm actually leaning toward the flat tax idea that no one gets out of paying.
More to come....
