THE MOSS SAWBUCK
Sawbuck is slang for the ten-dollar bill, and is based on the Roman numeral interpretation of the ‘X’ shape of the device holding wood to be sawed. Below I am proposing ten legislative bills that I will introduce if elected.
Mike Murphy’s recent column titled “The Past Is History – Candidates, we know what you have done. Now tell us what you’re going to do.” TIME, April 23, 2012, page 24. Murphy was, of course, addressing Obama and Romney but I believe his admonition should apply to all candidates for elective office, hence THE MOSS SAWBUCK, below.
I) Single Payer Health Care now to eliminate for-profit insurance
II) Single term of office to replace professional career politicians
III) Fairness Doctrine Law to level playing field and end buying office
IV) Senior Amendment so obligation to seniors will be the senior obligation of the U.S. and tax forwarder office to collect Vermonters' federal taxes and tax returns
V) Initiative, Referendum and Recall by televoting for real voter control
VI) Cooperatives, not Corporations, to end corporate control of legislation
VII) Evaluate Lobbies as good and bad, and eliminate bad lobbies
VIII) Replace Judges with Justice and end the law business
IX) Choice of jury duty or legislative service for jury pool volunteers
X) Suffrage and legislative service limits for political conservatism handicapped
Brevity is the soul of wit. A BBC study of developed nations found the U.S. the most corrupt.
We can become the least corrupt in one biennium by implementing the Moss Sawbuck. Thanks.
