Gun Control

When it comes to gun control, we believe that guns should not be allowed anywhere in the US. Ownership of firearms has only proven to be a big problem amongst individuals in the US. There have been 2,057 school shooting incidents since 1970, with 680 fatalities and 1,926 injuries, and 2021 had the greatest number of school shootings with 249, and the next highest year was 2022 with 153. We believe that school shootings and terrorist attacks can be stopped if guns are completely banned in the US.

Human Tracking

Human trafficking is a massive issue in the US, and it is one of the biggest crime trade industries in the state. We should send undercover officers and agents to shut down human trafficking businesses and hopefully make this issue less of a problem.

Immigration

We believe that immigration should be passed and anyone who wants to move to the US from a different country should be allowed as long as the people who want to move meet U.S. current immigration standards.

Conflict Minerals

Conflict minerals entering our technology would be difficult to stop completely, so it would be much easier to instead reduce it. It is hard to track conflict minerals’ origin and if they get mixed into other minerals. This can be reduced by having companies publicize where their materials come from and by being austere on obtaining minerals from regions with covered countries. Although addressing this issue could further increase the price of technology that uses these minerals, reduction of conflict minerals could help prevent environmental damage to these regions and reduce attacks on civilians in these countries, especially in the DRC (Democratic Republic of Congo).

North Korea Nuclear Weapons

In North Korea, nuclear weapons have been a concern, so what we plan on doing is providing economic support to North Korea in exchange of having them stop their nuclear testing.

Drugs

We plan on regulating the prescription drug market to allow fewer drugs from foreign countries into the US market to better protect our people. We will have better plans on making sure the drug market is safer.

Stem Cell Research

We believe that stem cell research is something that should be continued in the US. As stem cell research can potentially cure diseases and help make the world a better place. However, we will plan on decreasing the amount of destroyed human embryos.

Vegetarian Lunches at Schools

Lunches at school are usually consisted of low-quality food due to the amount of funding that schools get. Some schools opt for packaged foods like chips. Swapping this food for healthier and acceptable school meals would be better for dealing with the current issue of the amount of food obtained. By making the food vegetarian and trans fat-free while also providing decent quality meals could improve multiple activities. Such include; sleep, productivity, and a few more such as well-being. Although schools would have to remove foods like chips, candy, and ramen, since most schools make students pay for them anyway it wouldn’t be too much of a loss since students can still bring their own food to lunch. This will be mandatory for elementary through middle school, but in high school because they are almost adults we will be not forcing them. They can decide, however we will still provide vegetarian lunches.

Cybersecurity with Russia

We believe that online security is important and we will work to protect the U.S. citizen information. Due to the digital hacking from other countries like Russia

Inflation

We can counteract inflation by increasing the federal minimum wage from its current low of $7.50 per hour to an amount around $15. Doing this will not affect large scale businesses much but might heavily impact smaller businesses. This can also be prevented by modifying this rule so that small businesses can set their minimum pay to half of the minimum wage. This would need a series of rules that can be used to ‘identify’ these small businesses and prevent unethical usage of this rule.
