Do they want an interventionist government that sends their kids off to war or throws them in jail for having a joint in their sock? Do they want to keep paying ~$20,000 a year (per pupil) for government schools that do not actually educate their kids? Do they want another 4 years of a government that is the hand maiden of Wall Street and the bankers? Government will always be the tool of the people who can spend billions to (s)elect the leaders and the only way to blunt that is to reduce the size and power of government. I've read the Loonytarian Platform. It's a document for a far-reaching abolition of government and the important services government provides, especially those without significant financial resources. No thanks. If we continue on our current path, the country will be bankrupt and those programs will all fail. Let Hillary or Bernie actually propose the taxes that are necessary to support the "give aways" they promise and let's see how far they get. It is certainly not going to be simply raising the taxes on 1% of the people and leaving everyone else unscathed. The Libertarians are the only ones proposing serious cuts in DoD and trying to get the entitlements under control. The democrats do not even want to tell us how much trouble we are in. They ignore things like, we are spending over 100% of revenue on entitlements and interest on the debt. Everything else is borrowed money or money the fed prints out of thin air. If the rest of the world was not in worse shape than us, we would be called on it but we are all just whistling through the grave yard. This can not continue and a world financial collapse is the only possible result if we do not get our financial house in order. Compared to this debt bubble, 2009 was a firecracker and we are looking at an A bomb. (maybe more literally than we want to admit). |
