What can we do?

Richard Mondale Loc: Montana
 
Letter to Shenandoah Valley Tea Party Patriots August 7, 2014
My name is Richard Mondale. In 1982 I copyrighted ideas about Fair Pay and I observed that we need a Golden Rule in the United States.
The Fair Pay Idea says, “Everyone gets paid according to what they bring to the Enterprise.” I then derived a mathematical equation to do this calculation.
The Golden Rule enlists the Lawyer Corp to be our immune Response System. Stated simply, “Lawyers get to add 50% to whatever Harm they can prove.” Harm is defined as damages that are not compensated for by beneficial conduct. You should not eat that which you do not own. People should be better than the beasts of the field. The victim should be made whole, the Lawyer should get paid, and the perpetrator should pay more than he could ever have made on his thievery, unless he confesses.
More recently I listed the Five Fatal Federal Flaws. These are items that I believe could kill America. They include:
1 Bad Education – My solution is “Test the Graduates of the School.” The Government has the right to want whatever it wants to want, and it has the right to test for it. I suggest that they test for the abilities that the government needs kids to have, and then rank the schools and embarrass the ones at the bottom. There is about one week at the end of the senior year (when the diplomas are being printed) when very little work is done, so fill this time with tests.
2 Bad Tax System – The Rust Belt was caused by the IRS. Income Tax does not compete well with VAT Tax, thus we have been subsidizing Europe since World War II. This was entered into with full knowledge and conscious intention, but then we forgot to stop it, and so it continues, and the entire world has jumped on board by adopting the VAT tax system. I have devised a Consumption Side Tax system that is cheap and easy. This will save us the $400 Billion we spend each year to figure or taxes. It will also retrieve the $300 Billion worth of fraud and theft, and it will make or products competitive on the world market. That will be worth a Trillion Dollars per year. That stimulus would help our economy. I call it the Banker’s Tax. It can be stated simply: “When money is removed from FDIC Insured instrument, the Tax is taken.” We do not care who you are or what you are buying or why you want it. If you want it, then pay 5%. We charge extra for Cash.
3 The Police – Armed Government Agents can be awfully nasty. History is replete with examples. To add to the threat, the police are getting some powerful new toys, for instance: they can look right through your house and find all of your guns and gold, and they can tell you if you have copper pipes. We need some rules to control them. I believe that no enforcement action should be permitted until a victim comes forward and files a complaint claiming damages. The Police would then access their special information to identify the perpetrator and to convict him. Police should collect Court Grade evidence.
4 Crony Crapitolism – The British Mercantile system has captured our Government as outlined in the “Hamilton’s Curse” by Thomas J. Dilorenzo. The mechanism for this is the improper assignment of the Duties of the Two Active Branches of the Government. The Congress is supposed to be the Brain and do the thinking for the Government. The President is the body. He Executes the Orders given him. The Federal Teat is supposed to be part of the Body, but the Congress wants to Bring Home the Bacon, so they seized the Power to direct spending from the President in exchange for letting him be the Leader. My Dad worked for FDR. He said, “The Leaders of the Congress came to the Whitehouse and said, ‘You get ready for the War, and just send the bills to us.’“ Thus, the power was transferred. So, the Congress splits up the Money (60% to the majority party, 40% to the minority, everybody’s district get its fair share based on seniority) and the President Leads the Free World. Nobody wants to fix this. Cronyism is just too profitable. We are tied up with those ligaments that Hamilton was talking about. Thomas Jefferson said to James Madison that they had controlled the Dog of War by separating those who declare War from those that Pay for it. Congress Declares War, so Congress does not pay for it. During the 7/11/11 Conflict I said to Bob Goodlatte, “I cannot imagine the Founding Fathers would have thought it a good idea to have 5350 thumbs and fingers in the Revenue Pie.” He stopped me saying, “We are allowed to appropriate money.” Def: Appropriate: To go in without permission and seize, particularly in a high handed manor, also, to reserve for a purpose.” Congress rides on that last part. What they should do is write one check per year, per Cabinet Secretary. They should be told to release the tit.
5 I don’t feel well represented. The Founding Fathers did the best they could to devise a representative government in a time before the invention of the horse and buggy, the sail boat, or the Post Office. The States were big back then, and they are still important, but we now know that there are other important entities that need to be represented. The question then becomes, “How can all of the diverse kinds of entities be represented appropriately?” People, governments, businesses, and networks all have needs. What I would recommend is that each entity should represent itself to the Government on four basses. They would be: Internal thoughts (science and religion), External efforts (business mostly) (denominate this in dollars), Extended associations (family, community, and town), and Environmental needs (easy credit and clean air). Everyone would get a vote in each of these categories but they would have more power in some than others, for instance Unions would be powerful in the last two, colleges would be powerful in the first two, and rich people would hang out with businesses in the second. This would all be on the internet so it is instantly modifiable. Citizens can move their vote to strengthen some position.
Lastly – I was talking to Emmet Hanger. I told him, “There are three ways to pay for Health Care. You can save up before hand and pay cash, you can play the insurance game, or you can borrow money and repay it later.” Obama Care has slammed us into playing the Insurance Game. I proposed the establishment of an Emergency Bank that would lend money to pay the Hospital, or rebuild the house, and would put the citizen on a ten year repayment schedule. This fund would be established and maintained by giving each new born a birthday present of an account with a $5000 balance. This would grow at 7.2% so it would double every decade and would become worth two million dollars. That should be enough to pay for a lifetime full of health care. If it is not used, then it would go back into the system, thus reducing the cost. Any short fall would be funded by tax dollars. However, I would insist that accounts belonging to citizens killed by natural disaster of acts of war, should be paid out to survivors. This will help with the emergency and remove any possibility of governmental conflict of interest.
That is what I would do, Richard Mondale

The solution is simple; Enable ordinary citizens to correct stupidity and all waste of tax money. President Lincoln came up with the solution though it is highly limited. Bureaus of Public Oversight has corrected that limitation and could turn our government into a top notch state with half the tax dollars.
