Protect against corporate misbehavior: but EPA isn't the way
Q: Is the Environmental Protection Agency appropriate in its environmental regulation, or is the EPA guilty of "regulatory over-reach"?
A: Government regulation is out of control across the board--it is a massive ignorant bureaucracy too easily manipulated by the two-party tyranny that sells
Congressional votes as a bloc to 40+ billionaires whose lobbyists write both the legislation and the regulations. So on the one hand, I believe we have too much regulation burdensome on the individual, and
not enough meta-protection constraining catastrophic misbehavior by giant corporations such as Monsanto, Coca-Cola, Nestle, and Wal-Mart.

End blind support for predatory banks and corporations
- We do not have a foreign policy, just blind support for predatory banks and corporations, Israel, dictators, and oil despots
- Ron Paul has it right--we need a foreign policy of peace, commerce, and friendship
- Department of
State is an empty shell--need to move $200 billion a year from military to State
- Stabilization & Reconstruction is how we keep illegal immigrants home--eradicating corruption and no longer giving aid to governments but to projects will help

Hold corporations responsible for supporting American labor
FULL EMPLOYMENT in the USA must be our single greatest economic objective, and we must hold corporations--
that operate under public incorporation charters--responsible to their country, their employees, and the communities of consumers that should be support American labor, not foreign labor.

Wealthiest 1% responsible for 22% unemployment
- The social contract between We the People and our governments at all levels demands that we all take the long view--think out Seven Generations.
- The concentration of wealth to the
1% has been made possible by Congressional corruption and is the primary reason our economy is hosed, unemployment is at 22% (not the lie of 9%), and hence Social Security is at risk.
