hey there is something to your position - sounds like a libertarian perspective. In my mind it's far too idealistic. But if this is the path you want to take - the FIRST thing is to get campaign form immediately. I think if anything - that platform is one we can agree on. The other topics can be tackled later.

Well, we can keep chasing our tails all day or just agree to disagree I suppose. I believe in having a government, but that the role of that government should be limited. It's quite obvious you believe in the opposite. I find your willingness to push the pain on future generations to be the most disturbing thing about our conversation.
It's been fun, but like I said, neither one of us is going to change the others mind, so enjoy your endevors.

The simplicity of your argument is the root of comedy sprouting the branches of ignorance: Lower all taxes, stop spending (meaning stop ALL FEDERAL PROGRAMS including medicare and medicade) and stop all defense spending.
I wonder what society has ever succeeded with this platform to build off of. Oh wait - it's called ANARCHY!
You certitude is so telling.

Cutting taxes without shrinking the size of government will accomplish nothing. Both must occur.

Boy you are a kool-aid drinker aren't you? Apparently with you, one must embrace every ideal a person holds or everything else they stand for is garbage. Do I agree with a negative income tax? No, but since when do you agree with everything one person says about socioeconomic theory?

Eh? I don't quite take your slight I guess. The FED is the culprit in just about any unsavory monetary developments. There is no true free-market. The FED dictates the cost of credit, therefore the FED dictates the cost of just about everything. I agree with Friedman, so I'm not sure how words suck I guess.

Forcing people to participate in programs they do not want to be a part of is tyranny. Taking the fruit of their labor unwillingly to pay for them is slavery.

You make quite a few assumptions about me for someone who has never met me. For example, you assume I'm a republican so far as I can tell. I'm not. You assume I'm for the wars in the middle east... I'm not. you assume I'm for the millitary industrial complex... I'm not. You assume I'm for taxation and inflation to support such things automatically... I'm not. Assumption as they say, is the mother of all... well you get the picture.
As to SS, M and UC, should not be forced upon people.

BTW - you know Friedman was also for a negative income tax right?

You might want to hit the books. It was Friedman who wrote,
"The Fed was largely responsible for converting what might have been a garden-variety recession, although perhaps a fairly severe one, into a major catastrophe. Instead of using its powers to offset the depression, it presided over a decline in the quantity of money by one-third from 1929 to 1933 ... Far from the depression being a failure of the free-enterprise system, it was a tragic failure of government."
Words suck eh?
