My name is Joe Martyniuk and I was an independent candidate for president last November. At the time, I thought the number one problem in America was having to buy oil from people who hate us. It still is. I think that the day will come when you can't buy gasoline at any price. And the only proven technology that could meet our needs today was turning American coal into gasoline. I think it could be done with clean technology. We could sell $500 Billion bonds to build 200 plants to turn American coal into $1 per gallon American gasoline. We could sell those 200 plants in the stock market as they got built.
As for my other ideas, I also think we should close our borders first, and then pardon illegal aliens. How? By putting a $10,000 import tax on the 20 million cargo containers we import every year. Use the money to pay 200,000 cargo container inspectors to check every container and 5 million border guards to patrol our 20,000 mile border. That's $.50 more for a pair of jeans or $20 for a wide screen TV. Then make illegal aliens citizens if here 2 years and pay a $2,000 verification fee. You probably don't like that solution. But there isn't enough public support on either side to just close the borders or pardon illegal aliens.
Fix Iraq. Hand out two million cell phones to
families to call for help and turn in their neighbors. Two
million handguns for self-defense. One million PC's for kids.
one million generators, air conditioners, water, gasoline, and
waste water tanks. 8,000 tanker trucks to deliver gasoline,
water, and remove waste water. Use 10,000 tanker trucks
to carry one million barrels of oil per day from the wells to
the coast on the heavy duty construction roads to pay for this
and temporarily reduce oil prices.
Save social security. Start it at 68. No income cap cutoff.
Less for incomes over $52,000. Give a free laptop with
educational software to every child. Privately insure 45
million Americans with $.25 gas tax. Export oil, nuclear
power and food to buy friends and allies around the world.
Set up 5,000 submarine type reactors to clean air/water and
recharge electric cars. Raise auto miles-per-gallon. Install
right/center turn lanes and smart traffic lights.
Prepare for the disasters that will surely come. Use farm
subsidy money to stockpile 100 billion gallon cans of food
in secure places. Freeze five billion chicken embryos needed
to quickly produce vaccines of any kind. Sell H5N1 bird flu
shots to be stored at home to use when there's no other option.
Use loan programs so city dwellers can buy second homes in
small towns. Build 1,000, 1,000 unit, garage style disaster
sub-divisions in small towns. Set up a volunteer home guard
and local evacuation plans. Everyone should buy a gasoline
generator, electric heater, 90 days of food, and own a handgun.
Prepare yourself today so that when the unspeakable happens,
you can grit your teeth and dial 911. One day, some of us
will be unlucky enough to actually see a terrorist attack.
You may see someone leave a package, shoot a gun or
handheld missile at a plane, school, train, car, bus, truck,
grain elevator, chemical plant, shopping mall, restaurant,
water tower, power line, pipeline, bridge, office tower, or
apartment building. Be mentally prepared to take a phone
picture if you can, write info down, or concentrate on
remembering the details. Tell the police operator the color
and type of clothes the terrorists are wearing, the color and
type of vehicle the terrorists are driving, and any other
information that you can provide. You may not be able to
prevent a terrorist attack. But you might be able to help
catch the terrorists and prevent them from doing it again.
You don't have to be a hero. Just look out your window and
be aware of the potential targets around you. And keep an
eye on them.
The nation as a whole should set up disaster and security plans
to prevent further attacks. Everybody else claims it can't be
done. But we should enlist the aid of local NRA chapters, mayors,
police chiefs, fire chiefs, VFW's, American Legions, chambers of
commerce, kiwanas clubs, companies, newspapers, other pre-existing
organizations, and concerned citizens to set up groups of
volunteer watchers. Do it 24 hours per day, looking out windows
or sitting in cars. And thank God America is the most armed country
on earth. You can't drive down any block in America looking for
trouble without finding local citizens ready to blow your head
off. A mix of these people and ordinary citizen watchers would
go a long way towards making America safer.
Drugstore the drugs. Sell hardcore drugs by prescription.
Spend the money we use to catch, prosecute, and jail drug
users on medical treatment and a senior drug program. Sell
marijuana behind the counter in drug stores. Tax it to pay
for tutoring the 50 million adults and 30 million children
who can't read and count. Strictly enforce the don't sell
to children laws. People shouldn't use hardcore drugs and
marijuana. They're bad for you. But we can't completely
shut our borders if we allow billion dollar drug running.
Create 30+ Million New Middle Class Jobs. 5.2 million border
guards. 5 million new energy jobs. 5 million new health care
workers if we add a twenty five cent tax to every gallon of
$1 American gasoline to provide insurance to the 50 million
Americans with no health care. 5 million new infra-structure
repair jobs if we add a twenty five cent tax to every gallon
of $1 American gasoline to pay for new bridges, roads, sewer
lines and water lines. $1.50 per gallon of American gas. 5
million construction jobs to build those second homes in
small towns to countrify America against terrorist attack
paid for with mortgages by the new owners. 5 million tutors
to teach our 50 million adults and 30 million children who
can't read, count, and write paid for by marijuana taxes.
Refinance foreclosure homes and save the auto industry.
I'm an inventor and entrepreneur. I'm short and dumpy. I
stutter and stammer. All the bad things you hear about me are
true. But there are 300 million of you to help me get
the job done. I'm pro-birth control, conceal carry, stem cell
research, unions, separation of church and state, open internet,
balanced budget, import brain power, and extended unemployment
benefits. God bless and defend our troops.
