The plan is to radically change the form of governance in the US and concentrate all the power of the government in the hands of a single leader.

The aims are:
* The President should take over all federal law-enforcement and run that directly for his own benefit through the DOJ.

* Take control of private business through the powers of the FTC (Federal Trade Commission).
