A standard deduction of $25,000 in the United States.
It would:
Stimulate the economy Lessen the impacts of poverty Encourage more people to go on to higher education
To offset the money lost in taxes:
Add 1/2% to all the tax brackets. Stop overspending on our military
Logistically we don't need to intervene in anything outside of the United States.
We don't need to send billions to distant wars, we don't need to pretend to care about other countries just to secure our oil and gas supplies

Reduce dependency on non renewables.
Research and invest in renewables to decrease dependency on non renewables.
Stay out of other countries and focus on defending our own.
Taking care of our veterans, our homeless, our poor people and those underrepresented in colleges, government and positions of power.
Raising the standard of living.
Raising the legal age to buy tobacco/ vape/ marijuana/ alcohol products to 25.
More education on the harmful effects of tobacco, vape, marijuana, alcohol if they are not used in moderation and responsibly.
Remove those politicians / those in government that just care about money and power Retain those who actually care about cooperation, and enhancing the lives of the citizens of their country.
