&lt;p&gt;People who make money by tips should be allowed to keep them untaxed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Getting rid of the IRS &amp;amp; possibly switching to a sales tax that brings illegal aliens &amp;amp; corporate | individual tax cheats (who exploit tax loopholes) into the tax system.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Getting rid of corporate lobbying system that buys &amp;amp; pays politicians.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Revaluing our devalued dollar, by going back to having the dollar be backed by something of value (Gold like before 1974) &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why? Because right now....we just print more money when we need it....making the dollar worth less &amp;amp; less. That means when you buy something with your paycheck.. it doesnt go very far....because companies don't value your dollar very much in comparison to other countries money.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Making a foreign policy that makes a very strong military to defend America, without telling other countries how they have to live (Which only makes them hate us).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Making the government much smaller which allows the taxes to go down even further.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Getting the government out of our private lives, by telling us what to do &amp;amp; issuing 'sneek peek' warrants that allow the govt to go into your home without your permission | take a look &amp;amp; &amp;nbsp;leave.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Democrats are the same as most Republicans....do not be misled.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Investigate Ron Pauls voting record. He stands now where he stood when he first took office as a congressman. All the others give typical election year opinion changing mamby pamby ness.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Telling you what you want to hear.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can't believe American citizens have become so ignorant not to notice what is happening during these debates.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is no doubt that if &amp;quot;Ron Paul&amp;quot; is NOT a threat to monied interests in this country (in receiving their tax sponsored corporate welfare.....why would they decide to exclude him?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Obviously he is a threat to their free money &amp;amp; ability to then spend it with lobbyists to pass even more legistlation that benefits them directly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If Ron Paul has such a low amount of support, why did the mainstream media have no problem pushing someone with no support &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Guiliani was supposedly a wrap for the Republican nomination, with no support the media pushed him like crazy !)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Democrats are exactly the same as most republicans these days. Bought &amp;amp; paid for.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Clinton has been caught so many times with her hand in the cookie jar ( Insider commodity trading, Walmart Union Busting)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Obama's beautiful mansion bought &amp;amp; paid for by his biggest contributor mafia-tied real estate developer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Chicago &amp;quot;slum landlord&amp;quot; federally indicted Antoin &amp;quot;Tony&amp;quot; Rezko. The lot is just 1 away from Rezko's own.&lt;/p&gt;
