OMG first week in America dude? that's cool we get it.. Volutary.. yah as in individual choice. As in personal liberty. As in he wants the government out of your life. Yes voluntary would be synonimous to the ideals of Ron Paul.

You can attempt to withhold a portion of your taxes that you believe are the Iraq portion, but in all honesty they would just borrow the money anyway. You have to cut off the flow of money at the congressional level, otherwise you'll just have to pay more later...

Absolutely correct! Moving toward more freedom will increase our happiness overall. Moving away will do the opposite.

How you extracted that much BS out of my very simple statement tells me you need to up your medications, present dosage is not working!

That was a brilliant question. Maybe someday a politician will answer it.

A very thought provoking question. I would love to hear the answer to that by every candidate.
People already interact on a voluntary basis. WTF are you talking about!?

Can I choose not to pay for the Iraq war if I wish to do so?

Not really, because you don't pay for it directly you pay for it indirectly through taxes that go to national defense. But you can urge your congressional representation to withhold your tax dollars from the Iraq war, and they can de-fund it like the Vietnam war.

If I can't choose not to pay for something I explicitly disagree with (wars of aggression), then how can it be said to be voluntary?
