problems and solutions

Rape charges ---> therapy and jail sentencing 
murderers ---> therapy a mandatory jail sentencing
--no death penalty because could kill wrong person. 
and improve support after jail time. 
Drug charges ---> esp if selling them, confiscate all drugs, give them a fine equal to their earnings, put them on probation, no jail.
     --marijuana: high fine.
 internet piracy-fine them.  


child mortality in third world countries are high: help the countries develop their gov,  sex ed, condoms, decrease world population growth at same time, but improvement in child mortality rates. 

climate change: decrease emissions.
  -don't support keystone XL.  they say it's safe, but BP thinks shipping oil is safe too.
  -building the pipeline creates a higher demand for oil than was pre-existing.  

middle class disappearing:
   -don't raise the min wage, many jobs have already gone to china.
  -don't take away min wage otherwise we will become like china.
 -create more jobs and less mcjobs.
-and regulate the 1% at the same time so as to create a bigger middle class.
           ---explanation: if you raise the minimum wage, the companies will move their jobs to China.  to prevent this, tax companies for their foreign work (as example).  they'll still find a way around this. 
-defund the government, make them actual public servants. 
-penalize companies for illegal employment.


education:
--you don't need to educate people better if the number of educated jobs remains the same.
--don't focus on emproving education through retention until you improve the job outlook.  

illegal immigration:
--make it easier for students to become citizens if they have stayed in the country longer than 4 years illegally.
--don't make it permanent until 4 years later, just give them residential status, so that incase they do something illegal as selling weed, deport them immediately.
--deport all adults.  IF they've been with the student who lived in america for 4+ years, put them under-probation (not super often), give a long term fine, and find them a legal job.   If they leave before paying their fine, blacklist them from coming back. 
--if the parent is doing something illegal, then deport them both.
---reasoning: from a practical perspective we spent a resource in educating an illegal student, so we best keep them.  However, illegal actions cannot be done with impunity(hence a fine and probation for parents).  The result will be paying the once-illegal parents more through legal work, but also having them pay taxes for being a legal member of society.  
--besides the students and their parents of 4 at least years, deport everyone else.
