We still have bases in Japan and Germany. 3) sounds like an excellent idea, since welfare is a total failure that has produced generations of unproductive dependents--not good for any economy. 4) sounds like another excellent idea...let the rich keep the money they've earned and spend and invest it, thus growing the economy (but cut taxes for the middle class as well). 5) Also sounds like a good idea--let the corporations keep their profits to invest in R & D, modernized plants, new equipment, etc. (but cut taxes for the middle class also) 6) Sounds awesome--cut the pork! 7) Is there something you don't understand there? 8) Profit $$$$--is that a bad thing?
