LETTER: Vote me for president in 2020

To the editor:

This can be a divisive issue, so let us start the discussion on common grounds.

We all agree that we love our kids. We don't want foreign countries to hate us. We agree that we should make our ends meet.

That's why to government officials should never sign a budget that exceed revenue.

They should never increase tax either.

Lawmakers. I don't care what program you have or not have. Just spend within the revenue. Don't spend more than the money that comes in. Can you do that for us?

"How about tax the rich and feed the poor?"

Here is the problem. If the government tax the rich and feed the poor, the poor will stop working. Because we all hate working. They will make phony excuses, like disability claims, and get free money from the government, and sit idle at home without working, and become obese.

But if we don't tax the rich, the rich will start investing, and create jobs, so the the poor will be forced to work. OK?

Government should stop taking more debts. Because that's bad for future generations. Our kids. They will take on our debts. The worst form of inheritance and generational irresponsibility, is government debt.

If we keep enlarging the role of government, by increasing budgets, by increasing taxes and debts, there will be more free handouts, thus more laziness among population. The society will collapse from inside.

It doesn't end there. More people will be idling, making excuses to not work. They will collect disability checks from government. They will pretend to be sick. They will make themselves sick, by staying home all day everyday.

Government now runs out of money, so it borrows money from foreign countries. More people idling, being sick, America's productivity goes down. By smoking marijuana, Americans can't remember things, as marijuana destroys memories.

America is not working, so it doesn't make money, and it can't pay the foreign debt. What results? America loses credits, reputation in the world stage.

This is where this country is going. How can we stop this from happening? Here is a rather radical solution.

Elect me for President of the United States in 2020.

What America needs is a leader with common sense and good conscience, not with elitist credentials and glamorous experiences.

And that person is right here, in Alaska. Yours Truly.
