Rework our trade deals/get new ones, so we can get manufacturing back into this country. Ain't shit going to happen if we don't get our economy going.

Lots of good ideas so far. Well, except for mandatory military service. |

The US military could not handle, nor does it want, such an influx of untrained personnel. However, the infrastructure of this country needs an enormous amount of work in repairing roads, bridges, rail lines, etc. If a person can't physically perform or has serious conscientious objector beliefs they should be put into a modern version of the Civilian Conservation Corps that ran from 1933 to 1942. Personnel in this CCC would be tasked with the same things their predecessors were: build roads, bridges, and national/state parks. They could be used to build dikes in the lower Mississippi River region and maintain the vitality of the Interstate Highway system. |

It's hard to pick just one with many being so important. Wow, that's really a hard question.

Mandatory 10 years in federal prison for anyone who hires an illegal alien. This would require a simple, user friendly federal system for all employers to verify citizenship or immigration status for all new hires. The illegals would be gone in a matter of weeks.
Just as important would be to bring all US personnel and equipment home from Middle Eastern countries that are not our allies. Sorry, couldn't pick just one. Y'all take your choice. |

Repeal and replace Obamacare. We have known alternative plans that will give us near universal coverage, At least a 50% reduction in cost of HC and it will maintain the quality of HC.
It will take the money AWAY from the government and big insurance companies and force Citizens to pay more attention to thier health and the costs of bad behavior. If he can do that he then break the hold of 17% of GDP by the Government/Insurance/AMA cartel and it will free trillions to the American consumer while taking trillions away from the Government and thier co conspirators. |

Trash the tax code.
Have a flat tax for personal and corporations. This'll make it exponentially easier for businesses to operate cheaper and more efficiently. |

Do that, and many of the other issues will be improved by proxy. Economy improves, jobs outlook improves, tax outlook improves, GDP improves, potential for instances of terrorist infiltration from abroad is lessened, burden upon federal, state and local taxpayer is lessened, freeing up funding to be placed elsewhere, and the American highway becomes less expensive for the citizenry to utilize and safer to navigate. You've got to plug the hole, before you pump it out, or it will just keep filling back in again. |

It's time to get the American born deadbeats off thier ass's and into the marketplace. Watch how fast the illegals leave once Americans are told they are going to starve to death if they don't start producing. |

I have always thought the same as Dixie. 2-4 years mandatory service but not in the true military unless they elect to do so. They go through a generalized 4 week basic training then for the next 2 years they work for the country (NOT THE GOVERNMENT) doing good samaritan work with the homeless, helping to clean up and rebuild neighborhoods, helping the elderly with shopping, laundry cleaning all free of charge. They will pull a government paycheck while doing this, say the same as an E3 in the armed forces. Then they will get discounts on higher education, they will understand that they are NOT little snowflakes and the country working TOGETHER is in our best intrests.

Just a fantasy, but you know what I'd like to see happen? Teachers that are retired or exiting armed forces members. They can extend their time by becoming teachers. Let's see these punk kids mouth off to a guy (or girl) in fatigues with a side arm that is given full permission to "handle" any disruption.
