Defending the Truth

Scenario: You have been elected the President. Why? IDK, I guess the other candidates died or something, that's the only way I'd win if I were running anyway lol. A new law passed prior to your election dictates that the President may create or abolish any one law or government program he or she desires. Only one change can be made however. It can be as ridiculous, bold, humble, or as fanatical as you wish. I'll go first:

Universal Healthcare? Nahhh, let's try Universal Guncare! Everyone with a clean criminal record in America can get a free, government-issued handgun and a CCW permit if they so desire. (Ok so it's not completely universal-it's my law! nyah nyah!) Those who sign up may choose from a variety of revolvers and semi-automatics from various manufacturers. Any person who requests a free gun will be required to take a two-week course in weapons handling prior to receiving their weapon. I believe that this will deter burglary, home invasions, theft, and armed robbery, for potential thieves will know that anyone they might wish to rob may be armed and dangerous . An armed and prepared citizenry is a safe one IM not-so-very HO.

Private property is outlawed, with a systematic redistribution of wealth, property, and power among the masses to be collectively owned. Resign as President.

I'd remove the income tax and make a flat 25% federal sales tax on everything except food, housing, and medical care. Payable by everyone, including businesses. That along with my "fair" medical plan ought to create big changes throughout the economy.
