Yes.
More seriously, although they're wrong on every point, the obvious inverse isn't always a clear gameplan for improvement.
I dont necessarily mean the polar opposite, like if they want to lower corporate tax to 18%, why not take the delta % they want to lower it in their wet dream and simply raise it that if it can be reasonably found to be too low already which I believe is plausible in a big-money place like America
Agreed, just that their plan is so robust and so specific something like "make porn illegal" doesn't translate well to "make porn super legal".
That said, the more I think about specific examples the more it's they want to move further in a shitty direction, and moving about that far in the opposite direction sounds about right.
Edit: and I do like your point that they already put in the effort identifying everything that should be changed :D
