Nobody listened to the warning signs and it happened to California. To make the situation worse, their politicians are not willing to sign off on the needed cuts. In the meantime, the State writes I.O.U.'s to many of its creditors. Their inaction is only compounding and prolonging the inevitable financial and structural devastation.
Alarmist - No - Factual
Our Country is being crushed by bail outs, bureaucracy and debt. Current U.S. Federal debt is $546,668 per U.S. household. Do we really expect the politicians who have been a part of our crisis' to suddenly awaken from their denial and fix what has been put off for decades?
The difference between California and our Country is: The U.S. government will bail out California directly/indirectly. Our largest debt holder, the Chinese government, will determine terms for repayment if the U.S. government defaults. It is time "We The People" save America ourselves. With hard work, sacrifice and common sense, we can avoid the unthinkable. Capitalism is not broken, it is being destroyed by Federal debt, high taxes and overreaching government controls. Revenue and employment is being lost nationwide because our free market economy is not being allowed to be free.
1) Medicare reform and the health care crisis has been resolved (and rejected by Congress 5/09) compliments of The Mayo Clinic Health Policy Center (see Health Care page).
2) Incinerate a majority of our garbage, instead of overfilling our landfills, to clean up our water and generate clean efficient energy.
3) Build 50 nuclear power plants today and we will solve our energy crisis.
4) Resolve our illegal immigration crisis using existing laws today (see Immigration page).
5) Structure our deficit into a 30 year fixed payment plan and operate within a real balanced budget (see Monetary Policy page).
6) Use the original recipe that made The American Pie the envy of the world (see Faith page).
Yes, it is actually this quick and easy to avoid the unimaginable. The resolutions are sitting on the table and are being completly disregarded by the powers that be. Let's elect a President who thinks outside of the Washington box. We need someone who will not only encourage and support these practical solutions, but will back it up by implementing them. We need someone who is focused on the next generation of Americans, not the next set of poll numbers (see Why Tom page).
I am Thomas J. Miller and I want to be our next President of the United States of America.

well, Mr. Miller, you can do us all a favor and advocate the position taken a few months ago by the St. Petersburg (Florida) newspaper when they said the "answer" to our nation's problems are threefold: Every American over the age of 50 will be given a $1 million dollars on the following 3 conditions:
1. they must immediately retire, thus adding 40 million new jobs and correcting the unemployment problem.
2. they must immediately pay off their existing mortgage, thus taking care of the housing problem.
3. they must immediately buy a new car, thus taking care of the auto industry problem. Anything that is left over can be used as "consumer spending".
total cost of this = a helluva lot less than the trillion dollar plus cost we have in the pipeline now.
too simple? what's the catch? ahhhhhhh - maybe it sounds too good to be true. stop and think about it for a while Mr. Miller. How come no one outside of a Florida newspaper has proposed something like this?
I hope you don't espouse a typical politician's view that we have to draw up a 3,000 page document - full of unrelated porkbarrel spending in order to increase your chances for reelection. Just fix the damn problem and fix it NOW.
sign me - a disgrunted (to say the least) taxpayer
Our country is consuming itself and is getting so bloated it may actually deflate itself.
When people aren't working how do these idiots propose we pay for all this!
Ok this is a bit off topic but he mentions illegal immigratoin. Has anyone been to DMV lately? I used to HATE to go in there it took forever. I went yesterday to renew my drivers license. There was not one illegal in the entire place. They changed the law as of June 2009 so that they MUST show that they are lawfully here. It took me 10-15 minutes this trip.
I admire anyone looking to step up and lead, but I have a few questions regarding your solutions:
#2 clean up water, but what about our air. And the toxins you put into the air WILL end up back in our water
#3 where and how do you plan to safely transport and store the waste. Who's backyard do you plan propose to put these 50 plants in?
#4 Who's going to enforce those existing laws, no one seems to be now?
#5 What areas to you intend to cut spending in order to stick to the "30 year fixed payment plan"?
Part of what is breaking California is MediCal,their Medicaid program.A large percentage of the births in their hospitals are state-funded,many more of these are to illegal citizens.Remember "Octomom" and her 8 babies who all need extensive medical attention?Paid for by MediCal.
