Peterson 2024

My Presidential Agenda includes:

1) No Foreign Entanglements.  Ending the Unipolar Hegemonic Neocolonial Imperial state.  This includes:

a) No foreign wars, coups, sanctions, or influence operations.  No funding for "military aid" to foreign countries, militias or "pro-Democracy" groups.

b) No NATO or similar "regional" security commitments.  No foreign bases.

c) Submission to UN and UN Security Council in matters of global security beyond the borders of the USA.

d) 90% reduction in US military spending with a jobs guarantee for all.  Replacement spending and rehiring will be towards the development of 100% renewable energy as soon as humanly possible.  Swords to Ploughshares!

e) No participation in global neoliberalism.  No IMF, NAFTA, TPP, WTO, or similar non-democratic institutions.

f) Recognition of all established governments, reciprocal diplomacy with all, duty free trade with all except in cases like Dumping and Infant Industry Protection in public owned or governed industries.  No commercial giveaways like the Chips act.

g) Non-recognition of currently US backed fake leaders like Guido.

h) Truth commission confronting both the ugly era of US global imperialism and hegemonism and covert operations (since 1898) and the ugly era of Native American Genocide 1619 (or earlier) to the Present.  Truth to be respected in all government funded documents and teaching.

i) Abolition of covert operation administrations like CIA and NED, to be replaced by open source intelligence gathering and sharing.  No government censorship or influence in media except direct government messaging and balance requirements for mass media.

2)  Welfare State.  Government owned and operated Social Security system for retirement and disability benefits with no cuts to benefits.  National healthcare as a right with no charges for accessing healthcare.  No charges means no charges.  Immediate abolition of "health insurance industry" because there are no charges left to insure.  Eventual full nationalization of all healthcare industry, administrators, doctors, and other staff becoming government employees.

Restoration and fufillment of AFDC income for dependent mothers.  It should be free of work requirements and other strings.  It should be sufficient.

Generally guaranteed housing and food for the needy.  

Guaranteed living wage work for all who can work.  Seriously working make the best use of all human and natural resources.

100% free public education.  Cancellation of all existing education debt.  Limitations on new debt for private education.

3)  Energy and Transportation Conversion.  Conversion to 100% renewable energy by 2050.  50% by 2035.   This includes:

a) Vast research, planning, and democratic initiatives.  Re-planning cities to need less transportation.  Planning new buildings and retrofits.

b) Renewable Energy Standards for electricity.

c) Fully refunded Carbon Tax with phase-in.

d) Development of a free national DC grid for energy sharing.

e) Development of renewable energy generation and storage facilities to be government owned.

f)  Both EV's and greatly improved mass transportation systems.

g) Mixed use development wherever possible to reduce transportation needs.

h) Planning to move inland as sea level rises.  Phasing out insurance where new building should not occur.

i) Planned replacement of air travel with new and improved fully electric rail, including elevated crossings throughout the country as in Europe.

j) Promotion of home work and similar measures to reduce transportation needs.

4) Human Rights

a) Healthcare, Jobs, Housing, Education, and Food all guaranteed to citizens and non-citizens alike.

b) All industries and workplaces to have mandated Closed Shop Unions determined by employee vote.

c) No prosecution of honest journalists and whistleblowers.*  Abolition of Espionage Act.

f) Promotion of non-exclusive clubs for social gathering and meeting, exercise, dancing, and use of intoxicants (regardless of purchase) on a tax-free basis.  Taxation of bars and exclusive religions.  (Non-exclusive means that entities that do not discriminate on the basis of ethnicity or belief, but may discriminate on the basis of disruption or crimes).

g) Elimination of prohibition of sex activities for sale.  Sex work to be regulated for safety.

h) Free Abortion (as healthcare) at any time during Pregnancy.  Free contraceptives.

i)  Promote 1-child policy by retirement incentives.  Plan for population shrinkage.

j) No persecution of immigrants.  No deportation or family separation.  No forced expulsions.
