2. There should be no billionaires.

It's fiscally irresponsible to let that much money concentrate into so few hands. Tax the hell out of the uber-rich until they are billionaires no more.

Corporations are not carrying their own weight. Tax them, and make them actually pay their share.

That would go a long way to solving the problem, because continuing to ask everyday citizens to cough up enough dough to keep the country running does not work. No wonder we're in the hole.
