Nothing like reality to shut someone up. ;)

There's really no reason NOT to audit, even if for some reason you support the Fed.

Homeland Security is the most unnecessary Federal Department of all time.

All of this anarcho-capitalist stuff is just so very, very, Utopian. None of you are admitting any flaws in it. It reminds me of the socialists. Everyone will be equal, great quality of life, justice and happiness for all, blah blah. It doesn't work.

An anarcho-capitalist society would be a disaster. There's a reason we have governments, even if they are highly flawed.

Guantanamo is horrific, but I don't think I would risk being sent back there if I had been released.

I've been reading and it seems that there are lot of people here who are not rational. Anarcho-capitalists, truthers, birthers... How many of you are actually interested in the actual facts and numbers, and trying to figure out how to get a small government that could actually work and be...

hahahaha :D

Well, I can't, really. It'd be irresponsible to get rid of them (along with the income and corporate income taxes), seeing as there would be no way to pay for our government, even if it was reduced to the smallest available amount. Maybe we should repeal the income, corporate income, payroll...

Because if so....there's really no way to pay for the budget, no matter how small it is made. Interest on our massive debt alone is over 300 billion a year.

Alright, so the answer is 'as small as possible, eventually'. That's pretty good. ;) So one more thing, the role of government in a Ron Paul world is basically just to enforce the law, keep America and her borders safe, and provide essential emergency services, correct?

I'm just curious - if Ron Paul were to become President and had a cooperating congress, what would his federal budget look like? It's currently around 3 trillion...(actually isn't it closer to 4 trillion with Obama's new budget?) Thanks in advance.
