Me personally, I prefer homemade, it's not only cheaper but healthier as I get to control the ingredients.

My wife and I recently got to see a live launch... amazing and well worth going to experience to see what humanity can do with their engineering.

They will power you to places you've never been or imagined...

It takes some preparation and care and continual, guidance... good communication.

There's times you cannot hear the other, gotta be patient and listen.

Some prayer on a wing seems a good idea... a lot is outside your control.

You are riding on the hearts and love of so many before you and others are cheering for you that you may have never known...

Probabilities are good, at least 50/50 ... but you could die and it be very painful... even with a small error or bad luck.

You hope for a great landing and that you'd say 'I'd do it again... a life well lived'!

My agenda would be somewhat straight forward. As the head of the Executive branch, I'd require that all prisons and jails become self sufficient. The biggest problem we have today is the inability to enforce laws due to overcrowding. The incarceration system should not land on the back of taxpayers. The solution should be forced labor from the inmates.

Once that has been addressed, many other problems start falling into place. I don't agree with an open boarder. It needs to be controlled. At the same time, the U. S. should be a country that embraces leagal immigration. I'd work with the department of immigration and naturalization to streamline the process as much as possible. To those, however, that break our laws by crossing the boarder illegally -- they should be arrested and not sent back to the country of origin -- at least not right away. Place them within a federal prison and force them to work. Look, building a wall is just a bad idea. Make the laws accomplish what a wall cannot.

Health care has always been a concern. I like the President Obama's Affordable Care Act. There needs to be more teeth in it though. Allow there to be health care available to everyone, based upon their living wage. Then enforce it. If one is caught without health care, just as driving without insurance, allow Congress to establish punishment which may include incarceration.

The minimum wage needs to be addressed; and this is a touchy subject. We need to be a structured society that encourages growth. One should not be accepting of trying to make a living on minimum wage. They should be encouraged to better themselves. To me, raising the minimum wage just reduces the value of the dollar. We should lower the minimum wage, not raise it. Then offer student loans to encourage growth. And then don't forgive the dept -- make the student pay the loan back when they get a better job.

So what do you think of my platform? What would you do different?

I believe we are on the verge of an extremely dangerous totalitarian big-tech oligarchy.

By the end of this year, AI advancements are projected to be so good they will replace mid-level software engineers. Whatever can be automated will be automated.

Here are some concerns:

1. Societal value as an individual for most will likely level out or decrease, and opportunities to gain higher or unique statusus among peers will fade.
2. Many who thrive on possessing a distinguishable hard skillset will be impacted
3. Societal value as an individual will grow based upon soft skills, socioemotional skills, and roles that rely on such. Those with deficits in these may struggle to find their niche and footing among those who possess these traits.
4. Human resources may still be needed, but may be more valued collectively than individually
5. The gap will widen between the elite and everyone else, paving the way towards oligarchy
6. Negotiating power as an individual will decrease, and individual employees will be much more disposable.

AI entrepreneurs have spoken about universal income, but these are handouts that we will be reliant on, thus giving more power to the hands that feed us. Imagine if we strayed from their rules? Could this income be reduced or eliminated? Is there a likelihood we will have some social credit system?

If you thought this was bad, it gets nightmarishly WORSE! We also have nanotechnology advancements. Coupled with AI, this becomes much more dangerous. Imagine AI controlled nanobots being released into our water supply and we consume them. Could this open doors for technological terrorism? If we were to displease our rulers, could they decide to end our lives with a click of a button?
