9. We make political agreements with countries that offer tax havens to the tax cheats...

First of all, we boycott them and do not ally with them if they offer these tax cheats what they are looking for.

Secondly, we repeal the trade agreements that offer tax breaks to companies taking jobs overseas.

Thirdly, we do not prosecute those companies that return their ill-gotten profits to this country in the next six months. Also, if they invest in new jobs, they get a tax break.

Next, we would pass a 90% tax on all incomes above $1 million dollars, including actors and sports figures.

Last of all, we would presume that any corporations that did not return to this country will have renounced their US citizenship and would not be eligible for any benefits or protections of the US government.

I could go on and on....
