Schiff is so spot on, I hope he wins the next time he runs for office.
The machine will go after him if his name really becomes mainstream. Youtube really helps spread his message.

I'm a home owner in OH. Home prices were fraudulently inflated, to get higher taxes for the schools, teachers pensions, teacher unions, entitlement programs, etc., etc.. When I went to school, we had 30 to 36 students in a class. Now the class sizes are 14-18, twice as many teachers have been hired resulting in larger teacher unions, 2 annual salary increases, & a lower education standards for our children. I'm voting ALL tax levies down until the waste is curbed,& fiscal sanity is restored!

What an idiot. Of course colleges would go bankrupt. There's no way big research Universities could subsist on affordable tuition.

I know the Libertarian party is great. Who in the world could read about the party platform and it's principle and not agree? So then why is it so unpopular? I hear people complain about things all the time but they always go crazy at the last second and vote Democrat or Republican. Are we the only people left on Earth who can actually think for ourselves?

never said Somalia was anarchy. I said Somailia doesn't have a functioning government. My god dude THailand doesn't have a functioning gov't it doesn't mean its anarchy. The difference is Somalia is controlled by a number of warlords that have territorial claim in different areas. There is still law and order there, but they don't have a real formal economy, and most economic activity in Somalia is informal. I'm not ignoring Somalia's past. I am just telling you it's condition today.

Also, in 2006 the CIA funded secular warlords so part of the warlord problem is caused by us.

Law ad order is provided privately by Somalian customary law. The diya defines the laws regarding such acts as murder and theft. Some secular courts exist but sharia courts are more instrumental in ensuring the legal order. Other private courts are supported with the donations of successful businessmen who find it beneficial to fund the pressence of courts in urban areas. Dispute resolution is free and speedy by international standards (Nenova 2004 and Harfod 2004).

"Somalia boasts the cheapest, clearest cell-phone calls on the continent" The Economist 2005
Somalia's export of cattle to Kenya has doubled since 1991.
Their Airline industry has gotten better since 1991(Nenova 2004)
The Somalian shilling has gotten more stable post-1991.
Taxes and restriction on trade and movement are lower post-1991.
There is no longer a central bank to cause hyperinflation post-1991.

Since anarchy took place life expectancy, child immunization, number of physicians, access to sanitation, access to health facilities, (non government) GDP, # of people with radios, tv, telephones, has all increased, Infant with low birth weight, infant mortality rate, materanal mortality rate, extreme poverty (less than 1$ a day), and fatalitie due to measles has all decreased as a result of the government collapsing.
Also, Somalians have substantially more civil liberties post-1991.
Let's restore the federal government to its Constitutional limits: national defense, foreign affairs, justice, treasury, arbitrating between states and nations. Nothing else. No involvement in education, health care, or economy (other than interstate disputes).

War is a product of SOCIALISM.
Corporations are products of SOCIALISM.
Spying without a warrant is SOCIALISM
Bush was too socialist, not too capitalist.
