[OSR stands with Israel]

Spending Reform  Policy:

- Auditing any department where the federal government has allocated 50 billion dollars a year over the past decade

- Using the audit , cutting any program (defense and domestic ) which has been wasteful and reforming any program which has inefficient .

- Demanding NATO allies spend 2% of their GDP on defense

- Allow US government to import  prescription drugs from Canada thus , using it as a negotiating tatic to lower the price of prescription  drugs which will result in the costs of medicare and medicaid to go down

 Tax Policy:


- Cut income taxes on all Americans ( Having rates of 0% 10% 18% 25% 33%)

- Tax Income and Dividends at the same rate

- Cut the top corporate tax rate to 25% and have rates of(0%,5%10%,15%,20%,25%) and allow all businesses who have 4 or more employees to pay taxes at the corporate level and not the income level

- For Business who dont ship their jobs overseas or automate their jobs , their tax rate is reduced by 40% while companies who continue to layoff workers and either automate them or ship them overseas their tax rate is increased by 40%

- Eliminate the carried interest loophole

- Have a one time wealth tax of 40% on all overseas tax havens , and after that tax the money you put there at double the rate taxes are here in the US.


Domestic Policy:



- Allocate 100 Billion Dollars a year on infrastructure projects(this money will come from spending cuts in other areas and the wealth tax on overseas tax havens, and we still will have lots of money to spare)

- Invest more money in trade schools , and job training while massively cutting back spending in degree programs what dont get people jobs(mostly non English and History liberal arts programs)

- Allow people to by health insurance across state lines while setting minimum requirements for all insurance to provide catastrophic coverage

- Increase minimum wage for non dependents to $10.50 dollars and hour and have it adjust for inflation

- Reform welfare and transition it to workfare(on infrastructure projects) or job trainingfare .



Trade Policy


- Do Trade policy with countries one at a time and give more favorable trade deals to countries with similar labor standards as the USA.

- Make a rule that any country who tariffs US products we will tariff your products as well

- Countries who have gilded age labor standards(such as no min wage, child labor , or unsafe labor) tariff their products at 25%
