It is hard to figure out exactly what the tea party crowd would institute if they got power, so I will go down this simple list from the republic party/ tea party contract
1. Repeal the Affordable Care Act (Health Insurance Reform)
I think in the end it will be much better than the current system
2. Privatize Social Security or phase it out altogether
Privatizing social security is stupid.
3. End Medicare as it presently exists
The voucher thing is a joke. Ok, now that you are 65 go out and get your own insurance
4. Extend the Bush tax cuts
Not for over 500,000 imo. tax rate of the 1990's
5. Repeal Wall Street Reform
2000's all over again
6. Protect those responsible for the oil spill and future environmental catastrophes
Cap liabilities for those responsible for environmental disasters like the Gulf oil spill and let companies like BP decide which victims deserve compensation for the disaster and what the timeline for relief should be.
F' that
7. Abolish the Department of Education
could use cuts, but there are alot of things that are necessary that would get dumped on the states. So millionaires can pay less taxes? No thanks
8. Abolish the Department of Energy
are you kidding me?
End America's investments in a clean-energy future and disband the organization responsible for oversight of nuclear materials.
9. Abolish the Environmental Protection Agency
Pre 1970's environment was great wasn't it?
10. Repeal the 17th Amendment
This is genius
Enough reasons for you?
