Ideas to base your next term in goverment a) Outsourcing our hardened criminals, (say 2,000) to the lowest tender e.g. China, Thailand, India. Reason i) To make way for lesser crimes e.g. boy racers, graffiti offenders, burglars etc ii) To cut prison costs to tax payers iii) To give Judges more flexibility in determining jail sentences b) Second offence crime to be given military training for 6 months and then 3 year service overseas in peacekeeping foreign aid roles Reason. To make such offenders get some self worth and if appropriate give an interest free loan for a house on their return. c) That the male parent of young offenders do half the jail sentence of the offender Reason. To encourage parents to take better care of their children d) That couples with children whether in marriage or living together have only one start for tax, not two, and that one partner receives $10,000.00 annually paid weekly to stay at home Explanation Couples with children are encouraged to work generally away from home because the top tax rate is not achieved until $120,000 instead of $60,000. e) Gang members or any group that act in a military fashion (war like) should be put into military training for 6 months and then put into front line war duties where needed overseas. Comment Use their energies to protect western society and not intimidate and bully in a civilized society. f) Any recent immigrant who offends or has trouble in adjusting to New Zealand society be deported to their country of origin g) That at least one adult member of a family should go to work whether in normal employment or work for the dole. Reason For the health an well being of the family.
