@ MyRon “As for the dirty rotten rich, I would like to eliminate welfare and allow an income/inheritance/corporate tax deduction whereby one saves $ 2 of tax for every $ 3 donated to any charities that provide 70% of their proceeds as emergency aid to the poor (like the Salvation Army)”

Waaaaaaayyyy to complicated for the avg. Joe & Jane to understand

How about limiting all State Local & Federales to a Max of 10% of GPD how ever they decide to collect it Sales, Income tax or fees etc .

Then you will take about 5 trillion of GDP out of control of the Government Weasels & put it into the hands of Citizens & Private sector

Then peeps can give much more to the Salvation Army (good choice ) or do with it as they see fit !

Read the full Wiki article on him before you express too much hope. The man appears to be a statist, and a corrupt one at that.

Gov. Christie is certainly large and in charge. I hope he stands up to close scrutiny, unlike most of the other Republican prospects.

I really like Christie’s public persona, his quick wit, and his physical presence.

I would like to see him remake NJ into a dynamic State that has sent back numerous FedGov programs and freed private industry to flourish BEFORE he runs for the POTUS. He is young and he has time to prepare.

Christie has 3 things going for him: (1) his handsome symmetric physique, (2) he is apparently better than the insidious arrogant Perry or the insipid Ken-doll Romney (which is setting the bar very low) or the demagogic Obama, (3) he took on the New Jersey Oink Sector in a socialistic state. Still, after the nice rhetoric, is he proposing anything other than placing a band-aid on a cancer patient?? America needs radical surgery of the Welfare-Warfare Leviathan which is why I back "nutcase" Ron Paul. As for the dirty rotten rich, I would like to eliminate welfare and allow an income/inheritance/corporate tax deduction whereby one saves $ 2 of tax for every $ 3 donated to any charities that provide 70% of their proceeds as emergency aid to the poor (like the Salvation Army). On this Jewish New Year, I say get the government out of foreign idiot wars and the Charity "Business" and let 1000 Soup Kitchens Bloom! After the spending comes down, the tax rates can come down next (unlike Republicans who only work on the second item first).
