The following is a list of actions and policies The Dreamers wish to see implemented by the United States government ASAP. This is our message to politicians outlining precisely what we are asking them to do. Make it clear to those running for office that you will be voting for those candidates which support the Dreamers Platform for 2012, and you will vote against anyone who comes out against these policy changes. (Don't forget to vote for Ima Dreamer [a fictional character] as a write-in candidate for Vice-President of the United States.)

No individual or organization can promote policies which absolutely everyone can agree upon, but you do not have to agree with all of these items to support this platform if you believe things would be better if all of them happened to be implemented. If you personally do not support any of these items then by all means do nothing to support that particular policy, and express your opposition to other Dreamers. If enough of us agree with you we can change the list below accordingly.

Please note that I haven't covered all the ideas mentioned below in the proceeding text because I wanted to get the main ideas out as soon as I could. Later versions of this book will go into more detail. The platform begins with the proposed Constitutional Amendments which follow.

"A system of Informed (direct) Democracy shall exist whereby any government official or policy can be removed, or new officials and policies can be established, through continuous, monthly tabulated voting by the people."

"Behavior expressed in the pursuit of happiness, which does not force others to participate against their will, is an inalienable right of the people."

"An Exchange Tax shall be the only tax, paid by the receiver in every transaction, at the same rate for every person who is the parent of two or less children, and every business entity, with no exceptions. The rate will rise by fifty percent for parents for each additional child born one year after the establishment of this amendment."

"Government will not borrow money, but will create and destroy money as needed via a government bank which shall be the only source of currency."

"Government shall maintain a monopoly, or compete with private enterprise, in all areas of basic human necessity, including, but not limited to; health care, education, housing, transportation, energy, communication, technology, food, water and natural resources. Health care and education shall be available free, and the commons shall not be privatized."

"Government shall maintain public access media outlets for the purpose of enabling the people to express political ideas and conduct election campaigns. Free speech shall only be limited in that no one may publicly promote harming innocent people. No entity is to own more than one television station, radio station or printed newspaper. All paid political and pharmaceutical advertising in public media is prohibited."
