1) Kill the IRS. Go to a flat tax, national sales tax, or raise import, religious org, and corporate taxes to the point where income taxes are unnecessary. Preferably the latter.

2) End the Nanny State's War Against Drugs (TM). It is 100% unsuccessful, wastes LE talent better used elsewhere, increases the crime rate, overflows our prison system, and alienates our Latin America neighbors (not really a problem other than the fact that one of them is Venezuela!).

3) End RE taxes. Paying for the privilege to live on land that you own? Give me a break.

4) Oh, and if I were King, I'd make all health insurance and hospitals 100% not-for-profit. For-profit presents a clear conflict of interest.
