If Obama is elected, America will most assuredly fall into a depression.
Tax cuts are awesome. But lowering the goverment's revenue intake at this stage in history is moronic. I would, in this situation, propose a plan similar to Alexander Hamilton's during his term as Secretary of Treasury under Washington:
INCREASE taxes. I know everyone hates them, but sometimes we all have to bear a burden. DO NOT increase taxes on the rich. The government borrows billions of dollars from it's own social elite; the government pays the loan back with interest, and the rich get richer. Then the "trickle down" effect begins. When the rich get richer, everyone gets richer.
Aside from Hamilton's views, we also need to do something about that damn welfare. I live in Mississippi, so I see thousands- possibly even millions- of people taking welfare checks who NEVER search for jobs. I don't want to pay for some worthless scum to sit on his ass all day.
Another qualm I have is this: No Child Left Behind Act. If your child gives an honest effort and still needs help, I understand. But if you want the government to downgrade the nation's educational rigor because your son is too busy texting the girl he's having promiscuous sex with instead of paying attention, I would have no problem seeing him fail a grade or two.
And then there's the moral issue: abortion. I'm a Christian, and I am 100% pro life. God and I both will rue the day when America doesn't care about the unborn anymore. When that day comes, I believe that America will fall to it's knees.

Ok. There's my opinion. Keep in mind, I'm 16, so I might have misconstrued a few things. Sorry if I did.
