The states must take over these areas and clean them up and keep them that way.\u00a0 Firing and prosecuting district attorneys and other officials who have been criminally negligent in their duties must be performed to prevent this behavior from recurring.<\/p>\n<p>Welfare reform and homelessness must also be addressed.\u00a0 No one should be paid for sitting around.\u00a0 Welfare should be reserved for widows and orphans.\u00a0 Everyone else works or they don\u2019t eat.\u00a0 If the state becomes the employer of last resort, then let\u2019s make sure the state gets its money\u2019s worth.\u00a0 Road gangs repairing pot holes and picking up trash have some value.\u00a0 Small business incentives should be put in place to encourage initiative.<\/p>\n<p>States should pass laws that will allow illegal aliens to be excluded from the benefits of society.\u00a0 They must be denied any state resources that can be withheld.\u00a0 Criminalizing all of the statuses that come with being an illegal alien must be pursued as a way to drive the illegals out of the state.\u00a0 And this should be done despite the federal government\u2019s attempts to protect them.\u00a0 And most importantly the corporations that employ them must be punished as strenuously as possible to help close up this avenue of funding.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, the state must build a system of policies to promote and encourage young people to raise families.\u00a0 Everything must be done to provide support to young men who want to work while their wives stay home and raise children.\u00a0 And the law must specifically require that arrangement.\u00a0 It must be explicitly tailored to encourage young women to act as housewives and mothers because this arrangement is uniquely suited to provide the maximum amount of harmony and well-being for the whole family.\u00a0 And the state should fight for this arrangement, tooth and nail.<\/p>\n<p>And all of this is just the beginning.\u00a0 Each state is going to have to embark on a program to counteract the harmful programs that the federal government pushes.\u00a0 Each state will have to review all the federal programs and refuse the money associated with those that cause harm.\u00a0 For instance, a state might decide to forbid the airing of television shows produced by PBS and other government propaganda mills.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, a mechanism has to be instituted to provide the \u201cbig picture\u201d planning that currently is done at the national level.\u00a0 Things like research and development and transportation, highway, urban and environmental planning can\u2019t be left to the feds.\u00a0 Their priorities and biases won\u2019t allow them to do a good job on these.\u00a0 Luckily no one state has to take over these functions.\u00a0 A consortium of states can team up to do this work.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s clear that if we don\u2019t want to end up living in a place like California or New York we are going to have to take control of our future and pushing off in different directions from the federal government.\u00a0 We can\u2019t assume that control of the federal government will be in the hands of rational people.\u00a0 It\u2019s time to move on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Regardless of who wins what in November, the path forward for people who don\u2019t want their kids to end up as cricket eating, bottom dwellers<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[2886],"class_list":["post-28955","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events","tag-red-state-initiative"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.4 -
