>Ok. I'll start out with two of the things I would like to see change. It's no surprise to anyone who has read my posts that I personally believe that every single American should be required to serve 2 years in public service. That doesn't have to be the military. It can be the peace corps, civic service, or many other options. Also, for those jobs which have an unusual risk: firemen, police, military, etc, I think every single person who serves in those roles should have guaranteed free college. Not just a small $ amount to apply towards college. But guaranteed tuition at the college of their choice (should they be accepted). That obviously must come from tax dollars. I am ok with that. Ideally, every single citizen would be able to attend college or a technical school or an apprentice paid for by our tax dollars. I am also ok with universal healthcare as long as it is managed well and still allows for r&d. Healthcare and education are two things I am willing to pay tax dollars towards because it would apply to every citizen. That would do more in the long run to prevent poverty in this country than giving money directly or giving those in poverty free housing in government subsidized buildings.
