Hello and welcome to my political site for governor. I am an part of the Hetch Party if any one has any better names please contact me.

My platform for the island state starts with income tax 5% for people who make $30,000 a year or less. This is my belief because how will the people who make this much be able to put food on the table, pay property tax, utility bills, and other essential parts of life if we tax the hell out of them. 

This is the income tax rate board.

    $0- $30,00 = 3%tax rate

    $30,000- 40,000 =4% tax rate

    $40,000- $50,000 =5%tax rate

    $50,000- $70,000=6% tax rate

    $70,000- $100,000=7% tax rate

    $100,000- $200,000=8% tax rate

    $200,000- $300,000=9% tax rate

    $300,000- $500,000=10% tax rate

    $500,000- $100,000,000=11% tax rate

    $1,000,000 < =12% tax rate

    Businesses rate= 4% 

    Weapon policies:

I think that there should be no machine guns or military or S.W.A.T grade weapons out on the street. I think that to make this state safer that there shouldn't be assault rifles out on the streets. I think that there should be three categories of weapons out on the street. The first category will be under hunting. This category will have hunting rifles, pistols, and shotguns, scopes will be allowed but no silencers. The second category will be self defense which will include pistols and shotguns, you will be allowed to shoot before you call the police if someone is trying to kill you. Last category will be pleasure guns. These guns you will only be able to shoot at shooting ranges, and you must be trained to shoot them. Extensive background checks will be preformed to buy any of these weapons. You will also have a licence to shoot any of these weapons. That means no criminal record. Butterfly knives and switch blades will be illegal. The only ammo that will be allowed will be general ammo. 

Crimes:

In a Thomas Hetch island(if there ever is one) there will be lower crime rates because I will encourage the officers, politicians, and other high ranked people to interact not only with their friends bu the community so they know that we care about them. 

Drug Policies: 

  Weed, tobacco, alcohol, and prescription drugs will be the only legal drugs. 

Jobs and min wage:

 I think that the minimum wage should be $15 an hour. Don't fire people if they make one little mistake business owners. Minimum layoffs would be great.

Oil drilling: 

    I support oil drilling as long as it is done in the correct matter. We can't have marine life dying. 

Voting: 

  I don't have any stance on people with criminal records voting. That means I don't care. I care about what the people say and that is what will be done. I think that though that everyone should be able to vote.

Death Penalty:

   I think for really bad crimes people should get the death penalty. bad crime include murder and terrorism only 

Healthcare: I think together we can make a affordable healthcare system that will benefit everyone upper, middle, and lower class all together. I will help doctors make a decent pay check. There will be three classes of care. Basic, Premium, and Business. All include doctor checkups for when you are sick and annually on birthdays.
 

Basic: Up to $1.5 million in medical coverage. Medicine bills coverage up to $250,000.

Lower class rate: $100/mo Mid class rate: $200/mo Upper class rate: $300/mo

Premium: Up to $2.5 million in medical coverage. Medicine bills coverage up to $500,000.

Lower class rate: $200/mo Mid class rate: $400/mo Upper class rate: $500/mo

Business: Up to $2 million in medical coverage. Medicine bills coverage up to $300,000.

Business rate: $250/mo employee for lower class $350/mo employee for mid class and $450/mo for upper class employee

Corruption:

This issue will be dealt  with by making any law enforcement or office get punished when they do something wrong which can range from suspension all the way to jail time. There should be more government transparency to stop corruption and to prove that the government is not corrupt. Then we will set a budget guideline so the budget handlers wont just spent the money the government gives them on what ever the hell they want. Then we just need to keep a close eye on people who are suspected for corruption.  

Welfare: 

   I will only give welfare for people who really need it. This will be a work for welfare system. If you need more money then the government will pay the person who needs welfare with income so they will get to a state where they wont need to use welfare anymore. 

That is all I have at the moment but if anyone out there has more I ideas just message me. 

And remember if you have the ability to help then you have the responsibility.

What I mean in my slogan is that say a rich person has the money to spare to help people in need then they have the responsibility and should feel obliged to hep people in need. People won't be forced to pay up because that will be taking away their free will, but the idea will be strongly encouraged. If they do this they will be rewarded in their income tax by having 50% of what they donated to charity taken away. So if you wanted to pay no money to the government then you will have to pay double your original rate or you could evade and go to jail and have to pay quadruple you original rate, but hey it is helping the state. To get this straight I am not accusing rich people of doing this but I am sure some people will. But besides that the other stuff about charity is what I mean by " If You Have The Ability To Help Then You Have The Responsibility To Help" 

I have a Vice President that will run my business if I am elected to office because I need to put a full focus on to the island to make it the best we can  

Thank you,

     Thomas Hetch 

This is what's confusing. Why not just round it up? Why are you trying to squeeze every penny out?

Just take the 30$-70,000$ dollars and mark them as lower and so on. 100-500k is Middle and upperward for that. Just my opinion

If you are elected would you allow me to buy a plot of land for logging and hunting for my business?

Hello fellow police officers I am here to notify you that I am officially running for governor since yesterday. If I am elected I promise to set aside 30% of taxes to give to police work for better weapons, bullet proof vests, stronger vehicles, better tech, and build on more checkpoint each year in my term. I hope I have your vote to make a brighter beginning for Identity Island.

Well if you want a safe city then there needs to be good funds for the police.

But I feel that 30% of the peoples' taxes going solely to fund the police is a bit excessive. I believe a more reasonable number would be more within 6-9%, but 30% is astronomically high, especially for it going to solely to the police. I feel as if you're trying to turn the island into a police state.
