This afternoon, I heard a person on the radio ask listeners to name specific things that Governor Romney will do as President.
Here you go:
- End illegal immigration by closing the border, enforcing the law and denying those illegal immigrants already here any accommodation.
- Increase defense spending to 4% of GDP & add 100,000 troops.
- Limit non-defense spending increases to inflation minus 1%.
- Migrate our citizens from employer & government provided health plans to private insurance - no more “free rides”.
- Propose new, tougher penalties for those who use the Internet to sexually assault children - “One-Strike And You’re Ours”.
- Reform government to improve results and eliminate waste using skills learned turning around hundreds of companies.
- Eliminate all taxes on interest, dividends, and capital gains for anyone with Adjusted Gross Income under $200,000.
- Institute federal caps on non-economic/punitive damages to eliminate frivolous lawsuits & end defensive medicine.
- Repeal McCain-Feingold legislation-it restricts 1st Amendment rights & enact reforms that promote transparency.
- Negotiate trade deals with China and India guided by a deep understanding, unique among the candidates, of how to succeed in the new global economy.
