=The National Debt =

=
Right now, our nation's current method of handling the National Debt to continue to spend money we do not have, and print new, worthless money daily to compensate for the lack of ﻿real money in our nation's economy. This practice is not only useless, it is ridiculous! By ignoring this problem, we are steadily owing more and more money. If this continues, I shudder to think what would happen to the United States. Shallow as it is, money makes the world go 'round, and when we hit rock bottom (or should I say farther below than we already are) the economy could crash for good, with no help of any kind possible. ======

The Fixer Party and I strongly believe in the need for budget reform. Several bills have been introduced in Congress, calling for a balanced federal budget, but this has never gone through. I will do everything in my power to get this passed, so that we can stop the debt from increasing. From there, we must cut some government programs in order to turn our spending deficit into a surplus, thus paying off the debt, little by little. This will be a long road, considering the black hole we've allowed ourselves to be sucked into, but the sooner we start this program, and the longer it is maintained, the sooner we will be debt free. ====== =The Environment = ﻿It is the responsibility of everyone on this planet to leave the Earth in good condition for the next generations. Being eco-friendly does not involve serious lifestyle changes, and is easy for everyone to do. Currently, the government is doing its part to help the environment, but the Fixer Party would like to take it a step further. We will push for laws requiring stricter environmental regulations on businesses, and reward those already doing their part. Also, the citizens of the United States will be encouraged to become more eco-friendly. We will launch a recycling and composting campaign throughout public schools, and push for more programs targeting younger audiences such as Disney's "Friends For Change" and Nickeloden's "The Big Help". These programs not only educate children, but motivate them to make a difference in the world and in the environment. =Immigration =

=
Illegal aliens are a problem in our country, particularly in the South. Currently, we have boarder patrol and laws preventing employers from hiring these workers. However, there is a much simpler solution to this issue. These people want to enter the United States, most likely for work. Who are we to deny hardworking people the chance to make a living? If we make it easier to enter the country legally, we will not have to waste time, energy, and money trying to keep them out. ======

For those wishing to live in our country permanently, the current system of green-cards and citizenship tests is suitable. For those wishing to stay in the country for a short time, we need to create a system allowing them to come into the country, legally, for a short, specified amount of time. If they wish to stay permanently, they must return to their home country for at least a year before applying for a green-card. With this system, we will be fairly accommodating both our fellow countrymen, and our neighbors on every boarder. ======
