Maybe Odumbo will call for us to charter flights to let them escape this 'humanitarian crisis' ... I mean it seems he welcomes anyone into the country from drug dealers to gang members to ISIS ...
anyway, I got my dates wrong, voted straight libertarian in 2102 and intend to in 2014. Not sure yet about 2016. If I like the republican I will vote for him and then a straight ABTI party on down the ballot. As for my "Big Government" idea, eliminating means testing for food stamps would make them very expensive, but more efficient. as for the border, eliminate illegals by making them legal and open the border. Our war on the border is starting to look like our war on drugs. And the two are very intertwined.
loyek, get rid of the war on drugs and a lot of the border problems would disappear as well. Open borders is lunacy however, no matter how fervently Forbes and the Wall Street Journal want cheap labor.
But we don't need all those people .. we have the lowest labor participation rate since the late 70's .. why not have all the long term chronically unemployed get jobs and send illegals back to where they came from ..
I am not opposed to rounding up all illegals and deporting them, especially those protesting in front of the White House. I also have other big ideas. Like giving everybody food stamps regardless of income, and completely eliminating the corporate tax. 0%. but nobody seems to like my ideas, so I have to be pragmatic.
"The U.S. patient with Ebola had no symptoms during travel and was therefore not contagious during travel, Canadian health officials said Wednesday. "Health Minister RonaAmbrose and Dr. Gregory Taylor, Canada's chief public health officer, discussed the Ebola outbreak in West Africa today at the meeting of federal, provincial and territorial health ministers in Banff, Alta." http://www.cbc.ca/news/health/ebola-preparedness-plan-ready-canada-s-health-officials-say-1.2783655
I think eliminating income tax and giving everyone foodstamps is an interesting proposal. Its certainly a better form of "utopia".. then taxing the hell out of everybody. lets provide the saftey net to everyone. Before you tell us its inflationary... lets trim the budget and track m3 and dollar creation activities.
