One Year Into the Romney Presidency, Where Would We Be Now?

[ca3799]

I'm trying to recall all of Romney's major positions-


There was of course, the repeal of Obamacare.
He would have cut taxes for business/corporations from 35% to 25%
Cut the government by 10% and eliminated some departments- Agriculture, Education and ?
Ended federal student loans and grants ('borrow money from your parents')
Instituted the Ryan Budget (also ending Medicare for new enrollees)
Given $8,000 'vouchers' to these new seniors to shop for healthcare in the private market
Approved the Keystone pipeline

1. With the neocons back in charge of ME policy?

Syria: air strikes, "covert" action on the ground, maybe troops on the ground
Iran: not war yet, but they'd be "catapulting the propaganda" again and paving the way for open war.

2. The Senate could have stopped him

for anything he needed a positive bill passed for.

But there are a lot of things Obama has done just using executive power - like halting deportations of a lot of people and DREAM Act eligible people. Mittens would not have done that (I still can't believe Republicans are so cruel they refuse to even help people brought here illegally as kids).

3. Open revolt, probably

moreso than we are right now.

4. There's a long answer but the short one is

fucked.

5. At war with Syria and Iran nt
