2. Initiate a program where $1,000 is paid to each citizen over the age of 18 and even proration for age 0 -17. Once this is in place all other entitlement programs and subsidies (excluding those programs where the govt has collected payments such as title 1 social security) are eliminated
ray B,
man, i hate to even say this but... that is a stupid idea. give money to everyone over age 18, hmmmm, who is gonna pay for that? i think anyone that thinks this is a good idea should volunteer and give THEIR money to this program. those of us that disagree, should root for you guys and hope that you are right. that is more money per month than i am gonna get from the s.s. system and i paid into it for 25 years!
your other 2 ideas i thought were pretty good. paying someone for doing nothing is never a great idea. kinda like feeding bears, at some point you get tired of it, and they wreck stuff when the food isn't there.
