My plan is a national one for the COUNTRY. I let the locals run there own communities, just help with some structural job creating upgrades and improvements.

Your tax plan would not even come close to balancing the budget. Not even close.
Not trying to balance the budget, just grow the economy, and help communities, and mitigate the costs.

There is only one of us so obsessed with bringing up race as a major issue. That would be you. Maybe you should go?? I endeavor to treat everyone fairly and not characterize a person by his/her race. Not too sure how to do better than that. Kiss up to someone because of his/her race? Nah.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,
[note 1] promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
The words of these documents are powerful ,and maybe YOU live by a higher standard there are and have been those where race is a big deal and their disrespect knows no bounds. Because YOU cannot see racism in your fellows does that mean it doesn't exist? Often right under your nose. When the dufus exclaimed that there were good people among the blood and soil chanters it was but another sleight against people of color and has many since and while I can forgive such a trespass, he has not asked for it.
So he gets NONE and has earned my disdain. Many in the minority community and even some of our blue eyed brothers feel that way. Just sayin'
