The+Ameliorate+Party

== =  ** - T h e A m e l i o r a t e P a r t y **   = ** Purpose-Our purpose as The Ameliorate Party is to make the economy better and improve the job status, giving American citizens more jobs. With the economy in trouble, it is essential to generate jobs and make the income rate larger. Ways we are going to make this happen: decrease laws on businesses and allow them to grow, resulting in more jobs. We are going to try to create a **** program for students to get an education in the demanding jobs. **  **  - __Make a difference. . .vote for Blaine G!__ ** ** If You Would Like To Fill Out Our Poll (Below)**  [] = **Roles:**  = = **TAX ISSUES:**  = Without taxes, the government wouldn’t be able to provide income for state employes or fund social programs. Without taxes the government couldn’t afford public work on roads, water systems, parks, etc. The government will continue to raise taxes to lower the national debt. We will try our hardest to restore the US back to it's normal state. We believe that the taxes shouldn't be raised other than that reason. The taxes should be set to a reasonable level for all the American citizen to pay without struggles. Only will we raise the taxes if in the US is in an extreme crisis. **Sales Tax-** This is a tax that helps out the states get revenue for themselves. **Capita Gains Tax-** A tax on the profit made from the sale of an asset. **Income Tax-** Many states and federal government rely on income taxes;  **Property Tax-** A capital tax that is based on the value of the property, determining the tax cost. **Tax Refund-** A system where tax-payers are refunded on taxes when the tax liability is lower than the taxes paid. = **ECONOMY ISSUES:**  = Over the years, our has dropped and is dying. With unemployment rate sky-roketing. We are importing much more than we are exporting. Our Party agrees that income tax should at least be 2% higher for American citizen who have an income for 1 million and over. Voting for us will better the economy and bring the United States back to the way it's suppose to be! = **IMMIGRATION ISSUES:**  = There is close to 12-21 million illegal immigrants in America. We need to stop immigration because they are taking American jobs. Since they are here illegally then they don’t have to be paid minimum wage. The owners of a business are more likely to hire these people because it will save them money, and they take the jobs others won't. We think if they do make it to the U.S. they should be arrested and sent back to Mexico. We spend around 11 to 22 billion dollars already. = **GUN CONTROL ISSUES:**  = We think that if you have the correct permit that it is OK for you to have a gun. We use guns to control the population of the different types of animals. If we didn't have guns populations of the animals would sky rocket. Many of the animals would get to be immune to people and cars and they could cause more car accidents. We also think that you shouldn't be able to carry a gun around public areas and businesses. This would make people very nervous because you don't know who you can trust and who you can't trust. = **EDUCATION ISSUES:**  = A study by the Department Of Education found that 31% of American students drop out or fail to graduate in the Nation’s 100 Largest Schools. We think that America needs to work toward keeping students in school and at least a 2-year degree in college. It’s hard enough to find a job, and without an education it’s bound to be more difficult. With the rate our country is moving, the unemployment status will increase due to the new students who don’t have an education and can’t find jobs. We long for creating a program designed for students considering the option of dropping out, letting them review their options and future if they drop out. We want our students to feel comfortable, partners in learning.

The US is against dictatorship and we think it's important that the other foreign counties treat their citizens equally. We want to insure the foreign allies that we are dependable and trustworthy. Saying that, if we were to go into a crisis, conflict with another foreign country, we wouldn't be standing alone on it. Same would go for the US too. We want our allies to be on our side and we want as much peace between other counties as much as possible. We don't just want to be allies, but friends. = **MEDICARE ISSUES:**  = Medicare is another word for health insurance for citizens of age 65 and over. Medicare cost is rising because health insurance is rising. We want to make sure that when you retire, you have money to last you the rest of your living. We think it's important for our American citizens have a non-struggling life after years of working. It would be distasteful to have to work after retirement age. = **AFFIRMATIVE ACTION ISSUES:**  = Refers to an action favoring/protecting citizens who suffer from discrimination dealing with employment. Treating employ's different because of race, color, religion, or gender. We do not agree with this policy because it is treating the white Americans with more discrimination than the black population. We don't believe this is fair. We should treat each citizens the same; race, religion, gender, or color should not matter in hiring for a job. If they can get the work done, you should hire them regardless. ** ABORTION: **  The Ameliorate Party is not too narrow-minded about other people’s choices in life dealing with things such as abortion. We agree that abortion isn’t a good option is some cases. We think that abortion should not be allowed after already obtaining one abortions. If a victim of sexual abuse or assault chooses to terminate a pregnancy, that is reasonable. Putting the child up for adoption would be another option we think would be the citizen’s decision. We believe we should allow our citizens the right to decide freely on pregnancy and starting a family. = **ENVIRONMENT:**  = Environment has begun to form as a major topic in the last few years due to “2012” and “global warming”. Our take on the whole or-deal is that we should at least try to improve the environment by forming more clean-up services, which would result in more jobs. That would help to knock off two popular issues. We encourage American citizens to buy re-usable bags and to not dispose of non bio-degradable products. We also approve of car-pooling and choosing the paper bag instead of the plastic. Polluting plastic bags could increase in animal deaths from the animals suffocating in the bags. Let’s make this earth healthier, one step at a time! = **SOCIAL SECURITY:**  = We think people should have the choice if they want social security when they get older or have the government take it out of their paychecks. We think it's important to have health insurance when you are past the age 65+. We think providing benefits for retired American citizens is an important thing.
