suggested demands. I have my own web resources and am going to setup an online poll of demand. this is open and not limited by location, part, religion, race. in fact, the only thing i am going to have on it is multiple choice questions about grievances. please keep your suggestion short and limited to the topic. if it is not a new idea, please just post one sentence calling for it.

-Separation of government and economy. (no bail outs, no TARP, no minimum wages, no FCC, no EPA, etc...)

-Allow all individuals operating in Free Market to exercise their Individual Rights free of government interference or burdens.

-Elimination of the 16th amendment

~Elimination of income tax and institute (at the least) a low consumption tax with the goal of voluntary taxation very long term.

-Return to Constitutional Principles and a reassertion of our rights as individuals.

~~On the same point; A reassertion of the proper powers of the government:

~~~To protect the rights, as defined in the US Constitution, of all individuals (ex: Repeal Patriot act).

~~~Specifically to protect each individual from Force and Fraud (Ex: Police used force on peaceful demonstration -or- Bank lied/misrepresented the terms of a loan your purchased).

~~~To Limit the powers of government to within the defined parameters specifically spelled out as in the US Constitution. (Ex: Article 1 section 8) As is interpreted by founding documentation and judicial precedence.

-Elimination of all programs run by the government which are not delegated as specific executable powers under Article 1 Section 8 or a previously implied power.

~~Examples:

~~~ A slow (20-40year) phase out of social security with the end result of total elimination.

~~~The Elimination of the DOE and relegate the CHOICE of public schooling to individuals and then states.

-Demand Declarations of war with clear goals when sending troops over seas for military operations. No exceptions.

-Prevent government from interfering with peaceful assembly, but protect the right of each individual to choose NOT to participate if they so decide and/or to be required to provide aid to such assembly through law, tax or any other force backed measure not of the free choice of the Individual.

-Demand that the Federal government assert its power to regulate immigration and to apply RATIONAL and REASONABLE rules regarding immigration/emigration OVER the states, specifically:

~~Anyone may enter and become a citizen in a reasonable time frame (2-5 year probationary period) excepting the following:

~~~They are a known terrorist, enemy of the state and/or have plans to commit acts of violence against the United States.

~~~A person is carrying a dangerous communicable disease with no proper/reasonable means of controlling its spread and has no intention of seeking medical treatment to deal with the contagion.

~~~They have committed a felony in another country which is a recognized felony in The United States of America.

~~Anyone may exit, without penalty, tax, fine or other punitive application of law so long as none of the following are met:

~~~The emigrant is fleeing prosecution for a crime they are reasonably suspected to have committed or been a part of.

~~~The emigrant has been judged to have broken the law and is fleeing punishment.

~~~The emigrant owes a legally determined judgement to another.

~~~The emigrant is seeking to join the ranks of a declared enemy of the United States.


This was off the top of my head, feel free to elaborate.
