Immediate action within 3 months of this government taking office

o Progressive tax system to be installed with earnings cap for all citizens.
o The ratio between the poorest and richest in society be reduced be additional windfall and asset taxes on the rich.

o Shutdown of American military bases and slashing of military spending
o Withdrawal from Afghanistan and Iraq with criminal proceedings against those involved
o Immediate abolishment of nobility and the
