| + | <p>I despise two party politics,as often neither party has the people's best interests at heart, and both like to sometimes pave over inconvenient facts. However, that doesn't mean I'm a communist. Welfare should only be given out to those who truly need it (such as to support a family while unemployed), but should be cut off if the recipient is not interested in finding a job. If I was forced to make a choice of political leanings, I would have to say that I'm an Objectivist/Libertarian of a sort, because businesses should only have a minimum of regulations on them (primarily for safety concerns), and that the citizens vote with their money. If a large corporation is going to fail, let it, because a bailout would waste everybody's money.</p> |

| + | <p>I believe that the government should be reduced to it's barest of bones, that term limits be imposed on senators, representatives, and justices, and that a flat tax rate be implemented. I also believe that with modern technology, America could eventually implement a true direct democracy, and remove the congressmen completely.</p> |
