I am running as a Republican! I have for the past two decades, stood as a stalwart against imperialism, expansionism, and statism; things which almost every president supported, more or less. My presidency, will see a return to the economic policies that made us the industrial powerhouse, the breadbasket, and the financial capitol of the world. I will end the Federal Reserve! I will bring American soldiers home! I will support the Constitution!
America has seen a great and terrible war, and has not only been a witness to several other conflicts, but the initiator of a few of those most egregious acts! Under my administration, I say, NO MORE! We can have peace, and, by God, we will have it! The great war machines built these past bloody years will be changed into machines of peace, of prosperity, of progress! The fleets of aeroplanes and cruisers will be converted into merchant vessels and commercial planes. The noble and honourable men who fought in the fields of France, in wintered tundras of Siberia, and in the shadow of the Andes, will see a quick transition to peacetime, with a mass conversion from wartime industry to a free market!
This war not only left millions dead, but millions more displaced by war, by famine, by disease, and by tyranny. Under my administration, we will welcome those poor and starving masses with open arms! Those former serfs and slaves will become workers, farmers, businessmen, soldiers; the lifeblood of our nation!
However, we cannot ignore the problems that emerged prior to the war; namely our tax system. Why should any two men be treated unequally by the law? Why should one man, who earns more be taxed so much more highly than a man who makes but a little less? Why are the financiers of business, the creators of our great railways, banks, automobiles, and countless other innovations, made to take such a heavy burden that even Atlas himself could do no more than to shrug off the weight? If elected, I will remedy this will a low flat tax of only five percent! Not only that, but for any small businesses created by our middle class, there will be a further cut, to only two percent for the next five years! That is how we will spur economic growth, not by putting our faith in government, in the indemnible State!
If elected, America will witness growth, will return from the bleakness and malaise of war, and into peace and prosperity again! Follow me into a brighter future!
My platform is Laissez-faire, Free Trade, Pacifism, Secularism, Full Citizenship
