Re-Purposing Government Functions
Towards its designed multi–purpose simplicity & usefulness
These plans restructure our education, prison, and military industrial complexes so that they work together to reduce taxpayer investments while providing the greatest social returns in securing our rights. These solutions also include disaster preparations and recovery, both generally and specific to disaster–type; various utilities; solid waste and the environment; food production; transportation; green renewable energy; self–insurance; and more.
All about getting more bang for the tax buck.

Repair Vote System To Original Purpose
To minimize corruption in government & Maximize security of rights.
First on this list, we must know Our Authority Through Documentation that we the governed people not only are the owners of government, but also that when unified, we are supposed to control that government's powers.
Then, when we learn the real designed voting system, unchanged for our nation since 1776 in All Registered Voters Do In Fact Vote; lots of truly beneficial events start happening for the governed people.
Finally, to solidify this repair, one or all three of the next events will do this; each in order of complexity an length of time:

Finally, to solidify this repair, one or all three of the next events will do this; each in order of complexity an length of time:
- A well–informed and honorable president would write, sign, and enforce several Constitutional Executive Actions.
- Then, to make that Executive order permanent, we ratify a Clarifying Constitutional Amendment in accord with The Constitution for the United States of America, Article 5.
- But, if we are going to go through the amendment process for this, and then for several other corrections against some of our long–standing political corruption; we just as well take the time to rewrite the entire nation's constitution to better secure our rights and clarify lots of the past questions that got us into our present mess. A suggested rewrite appears above at, 20/20 Constitution, in its entirety.
Restructure Educational Industrial Complex
Provide useful education with purpose
There is an old saying: Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for life.
This process takes it one step beyond.
Teach —How to learn along with Critique–al thinking. Teach how to be self-sufficient and socially responsible. Teach how to be successful in business. Teach how to become employed in desired industry without expense of advanced education.
Teach the student how to teach others and you feed many generations.
This is also intended as way for individuals to stay out of Jail–Prison System.

Restructure Military Industrial Complex For War & Peace
In place of creating real wars under false and unconstitutional reasons; develop real and productive peace–time purposes.
This serves as an entry–level jobs training corps for any citizen, no matter the age or disability. Unlike the present military that seeks only young impressionable people who ... generally did not learn how to control government as designed.
Our nation's free people cannot be forced to enter into any war that defends our city, county, state, or nation. When a government can force the free people (through draft or other means) to participate in a war they personally oppose — our people are not truly free.
The exception to forced military labor is that of persons duly convicted of criminal activity, in accord with The Constitution, Amendment 16. The more severe the crime committed, the more severe the military duty. In a rather literal sense, people who commit crimes (violating constitutional laws and violating other people's rights) volunteer for these types of service to their community and country.
Our government cannot refuse the aid of any citizen or ally who wishes to participate in helping us win the war. It is the leader's duty to work with the volunteer to help find the best war- and peace-time occupation for that person to help us secure the win.

Prison Industrial Complex
Properly enforcing The US Constitution's, Amendment 13 discourages crime by making the penalty more severe than the rewards gained from the crime. This sends the message; Crime No Longer Pays In the u. S. of A.
This also holds government personnel to a much higher standard — accountable personally for when they violate a person's rights by enforcing unconstitutional laws and unconstitutional executive orders.
This is the second fall–back educational step after the K—7 education and military—peace corps. This also places the prison system under military supervision and use, providing extra manpower to do those government–projects presently contracted to private industry, which usually costs taxpayers more than twice the cost than when done by competent government officers.

Disaster Preparedness Generally
Government should only involve public funds on programs and projects that are available to all citizens — so long as the citizen truly is free; that is, not serving any time for any criminal action for which they have been duly convicted.
Government officers should be able to manage any projects and programs at about 50% to 60% less-costly to the people than a private contractor. The government is not in it for money-profit. The entire body of people within our nation are the investors. They fund these projects and programs with their tax dollars.
The profitable return to the people is that of the security of our rights. It is for this reason alone that we created our governments — to help us secure our rights.
Our nation's militia, full-time military, as well as all persons serving any time for being duly convicted of a crime should be used to help relieve any disaster within our nation, possessions, territories, allies, and other countries that need assistance. Such use prepares the militia and military for various wartime elements, events, and casualties. The work prepares students and inmates for life when they complete their school years or jail sentence.
The people already fund the militia / military and the prison-system. Why not get as much benefit from them as possible for such tasks as medical transports, fire, police, quicker recovery from disasters, as well as other public services and emergency conditions.
Using the militia and active-duty military keeps the members training as current on equipment operations while making use of their training hours to benefit society. Normally training time is less-productive with empty equipment runs and practice on mannequins.
This converts the Military- and Prison- Industrial Complex into a useful Peace Corp.

Flood & Drought Solving Each Other's Problem
Modernizing ancient aqueducts; piping flood waters through a system that generates electricity from the flow and fall of water; we also have a clean–green energy and jobs producer.
Military, students, and prisoners build the aqueducts to divert flood waters from flood-prone areas into drought-prone areas as well as into heavy water-use agricultural areas — thusly increasing our domestic food supply.
The added benefits to the people is the reduced load on local aquifers and provides more jobs that produce a charge-for-use service that pays for ongoing maintenance.
These ongoing jobs can go, in part, to the students and prisoners who helped build them, when they graduate or complete their sentence. Thus, society benefits long-term from the job-training.

Fires, Volcanoes, Quakes, Sinkholes, & More
Using military and prison labor makes shot work recovering.
Military and militia equipment, when not actively in constitutionally declared defensive-wars, can be used to put out larger fires, help restore quake-damaged areas, investigate and repair sink-hole areas, as well as maintain transportation systems, as well as work in hurricane, tornado, and other natural disaster areas.
This is also a good use for student, as well as jail / prison labor to help benefit society to reduce costs of public work.
It is not the government's duty to contract with private industry to do public works. It is the government's duty to get the best-quality work done and to get that work done ethically with minimal cost to the taxpayers.

Utilities; Gas, Water, Sewer, Electric, & More
With the solid waste and sewage treatment facilities covered elsewhere, utilities (fuel gas, electric, clean water, etc.) come from processing the trash and sewage through incineration and composting by way of totally enclosed structures. The by-products of clean energy are available to the people at greatly reduced costs — because their tax dollars fund the construction of these facilities.
The aqueduct system mentioned in the floodwaters, when situated properly, provides an opportunity to generate electricity from the natural downhill flow of water through the system. Another set of natural renewable resources.

Solid Waste, Sewage, Hazardous, & Other Wastes — 100% No Landfills
When learning from Nature, we re-purpose and re-process all waste toward other uses.
Every State will have at least one, 100% waste recovery and reuse facility processing all wastes from residential, commercial industrial, biological, institutional, governmental, and other source waste generators, including the emptying of all known landfills and dumpsites. States with larger populations will have more than one facility depending on populations and tonnage generated.
Each smaller, satellite processing facility handles at least 5,000 tons per hour with centralized facilities that process at least 50,000 tons per hour. Smaller communities may need only a small transfer station, to save money on equipment that may otherwise be rarely used.
Stages closest to point generating the waste (residential, commercial, etc.) begin sorting the items to recover the reusable and recyclable items, food waste, non-burnable, non-compost, and / or hazardous items as early in the process as possible, so as to reduce cross–contamination of resources. From the point of generation, the sorting and then processing continues aboard the collection vehicle, the receiving stations, and the centralized facilities where it gets sold to industry — completing the cycle.
Source separating materials is preferred in the collection stage from business and residents. From there, recovering for immediate reuse those items that are clean (such as papers, cardboard, plastics, etc.) for processing to return to industry for reuse. Soiled papers and plastics can be used in composting and / or fuel-pellet production for waste-to-energy within an entirely enclosed operation that recovers all exhaust gasses and ash. This is a green renewable resource — jobs, energy, and raw materials.
Items such as grass, leaves, brush, food waste, etc. are used for composting (with or separated from the sewage sludge and other wastes). In either instance the composting method will determine whether fuel gases can be recovered for other uses (another green renewable resource).
Plant-, microbe-, other soil-, water-, air-life and minerals process toxic materials. By finding the critters that thrive in the substance to produce an inert or otherwise usable by-product, this reduces the amount of hazardous waste to deal with and creates other useful industries.
No industry should be commercialized until after we know what to do with all the waste products; returning them to manufacturing, or neutralizing them for return to the soil, water, and / or air so that they are cleaner than the standards required for a typical organic farm.

Food Production
This encourages maximum productivity, coordinating crops, rotation, along with other related events maintaining maximum soil fertility.
In the final three or four stages of the totally enclosed waste-treatment facilities mentioned above, some of the useful by-products include clean soil, clean water, and clean air that are safer, cleaner, and more beneficially lively than found in many organic gardens. These final stages produce water-, land-, and air-livestock and edible plant and food products to feed many local people. Because of its enclosed nature, it can produce what would be considered exotic foods that are normally grown in foreign countries.
Our governments are not authorized to pay people to not produce. As with the other programs, this also uses students, prisoners, and military; saving tax payers lots of money.

Transportation Infrastructure
Roads, Bridges, Airports, Waterways, Space travel, and other related transportation means.
Our nation's goal is to make the transportation as convenient, fast and safe; reducing costs and increasing use. The idea is to reduce as much individual work-related vehicle traffic as practical. The goals:

Proposed Trust Account System
This Trust System replaces many government assistance programs (such as loans for housing, education, business; as well as welfare, medical insurance, etc.)
All government assistance and present-day welfare programs roll into this Personal Trust Account program that is initially funded by the parents for each of their children.
From birth, up to age eighteen (and maybe twenty-four), the parent/s guardian/s contribute $100 / month (or more) for each child they birth and / or adopt, and / or foster. Any money the child receives during this time, through chores, allowances, gifts, inheritances, etc.; 90% of those funds are deposited into the account. This teaches the child to live on far less than they receive, and how to manage their money (saving for large-ticket items, borrowing from and repaying themselves with interest helps make themselves richer and not the banks).
After age eighteen (maybe twenty-four) only the child, as adult, contributes at least 20% of their gross receipts (gifts, earnings, and income, etc.) This replaces the unconstitutional personal wage tax (falsely called an income tax on wages).
The government, subject to individual account–holder voter approval, may use deposits to establish city enterprise funds (such as utilities, solid waste, sewage treatment, etc.), as well as provide other public services required to adequately defend the citizen’s rights and to encourage business. The government pays 5% annual interest, compounded monthly interest on funds borrowed from these accounts.
Individuals may invest in business ventures to attract jobs. The businesses would also repay these funds at a greater interest rate than the government. The body of resident-investors have a 51% controlling vote.
From birth through age twenty-four; the parents, as initial Trust Managers, may borrow against this account to benefit the child named on the account. The parents must repay these funds at the same interest rate or greater than the interest rate the government pays into the account when borrowing from these funds.
If the child dies before assuming control over the Trust account, the funds revert to the parents/guardians who contributed; or as the child details in their will, if they have one drawn.
The child, once they either turn eighteen (maybe twenty-four) or emancipate themselves before then, becomes Trust Managers and they may borrow against their account for education, housing, finance a business, medical uses, or for whatever use they desire.
The child, as adult must also repay what they borrowed against their account at the same rate or greater than the interest rate the government pays when it borrows from the account. Repayment into the account should be done until the account holder reaches retirement age (of about 55 years or older — if the account holder desires).
Any un-repaid funds reduce the benefits from the account that the individual may use later in life.
If the individual drains their account, becomes homeless, needs medical care, and such — the government has absolutely no other services or welfare. The individual must rely on other people and charitable organizations around them for assistance.
It is not the duty of government to take from one person and give it to another.
In practice, by the time the child reaches age twenty-four years, their balance will have roughly reached $130,000. This assumes that the child from age 14 through 18 works and contributes $336 / month, in addition to the $100 / month that their parents contribute. As an adult, for the over age 18, this assumes that the individual earns at least $15 / hour, works at least forty hours per week, and the individual contributes 20% or more of their total wages, gifts, and income. That or works a few more hours to make up the difference.
This program replaces the income tax, as well as the unlawful, unconstitutional wage-tax disguised as an income tax. It also replaces Social Security and other welfare programs, government financed education, government funded mortgages, and others.
By the time a person reaches age 55, so long as they have either not borrowed against their account, or have repaid all borrowed funds with interest, and / or successfully invested some of the Trust's Funds; the individual’s account balance is roughly $780,000 from which they may use for retirement or in any other way they desire.
At 5% annual interest, compounded monthly; the individual receives over $39,000 / year. Add to this, a $10,000 / year gradual draw-down (if needed or desired) against the balance for the next fifty or so years, it provides a $49,000 gradually decreasing annual living fund.

Commercial Industrial Development Investments
Primarily focused on Income Tax
This replaces nearly all government assistance programs and encourages the individual to take full responsibility for their financial life.
Commercial & Industrial Development & Investments — Community responsibility for local industry pollution and jobs.
Our nation's people may use the funds in their Individual Trust Accounts (described earlier) to encourage commercial and industrial development in their locality (such as, city, county, state, nation, or planet) to increase local jobs and other local opportunity. The local investors should retain majority ownership and control over business and industry, preventing industrial air, water, or soil pollution and whether or not the industry leaves the community. This works similarly to the T.V. series Shark Tank.
The majority of the total body of registered voters must approve of the business locating within its political jurisdiction. Outside investors and businesses cannot locate within a community without the direct-consent of the people of the community as detailed in the consent of the governed content in the Total Recall Proposed Constitution.
Investing the Individual Trust Funds in this way provides a greater return on individual investments than projected in its own section. As an added bonus, it also allows the community to retain those businesses locally — preventing them from relocating and taking the jobs with them, without the community’s consent. The governmental bodies may borrow from the Individual Trust Funds — but only with the consent from each account-holder needed to finance the government project. Otherwise these funds are off-limits for government use.
No industry should be commercialized until all waste material has a new use and / or is completely neutralized and not toxic.
