Yes, but I mean sort of in the economic left wing sense.

hmm

what kinds of socialistic policies do you have in mind

Higher wages for one, I could incorporate that i to immigration

manufacturing subsidies and tariffs

A lot of people call tariffs socialist

Yeah, subsidies, that's another one

Instead of *getting rid* of entitlements, *reforming* entitlements could grab us more of the white vote

it would help if Republicans became more environment and private union friendly

Definitely, especially as the era of right to work heightens with this upcoming supreme court case

The environment will be tough though

We could get the EPA to crack down on xenoestrogens

A big issue is the left uses "the environment" as an excuse to push cultural and social marxism.

"Having kids are bad for the environment, gender inequality is bad for the environment"

If we want to win on that message, we have to have practical solutions to keeping the environment safer, but we also have to get coal miners and the such on our side, which these solutions hurt immensely.

We could use it to our advantage

as an excuse to reduce immigration levels to virtually nothing

If we were to develop hydrogen fuel cells for energy generation, it would destroy coal mining.

We'd solve the environmental issues, but also devastate a large portion of the base. How do we reconcile this?

yeah, that's a problem

one solution would be to virtually eliminate all taxes to maximize job growth

You mean fund the government on tariffs and excise taxes like the 1800s?

right

Maybe.

We'd have to be real heavy on tariffs though.

I would definitely be for extreme excise taxes on something like marijuana, I'm talking 3 figures of percentages. It still wouldn't be enough to fund the government.

We'd also have to lower spending, which we could dip into for the military and eliminate stuff like the ATF, TSA, Department of Energy, and ofher garbage bureaucracies.

i'm telling you,

go for a remittance tax

The issue is entitlements, we'd have to really make those extremely efficient.

Remittance taxes would be fine until we deport everyone who uses them

yeah, it would best as a quick source of cash,

Yea, at least a 30% tax on any money transferred outside of country

Imho

Orre

obviously we should put work requirements for entitlements

A small 2% tax to avoid a black market

Either way it needs to be taxed

Although, with the economic effect of ethnicities, hispanics and blacks tend to take away from the economy and europeans add to the economy, so the entitlement effects could be eased there with a repatriation program.

Also, work requirements as long as you don't have a debilitating disability or were a veteran.

We're going to make it, aren't we?
