I'm a proud CONSERVATIVE!

[DividedThigh]

me proud conservative too, dt

[Ferd]

I believe we should abolish capital gains taxes
I believe we should abolish business taxes

I believe if we have a progressive tax top rate should be no highter than it is right now, and honestly a flat tax or a consumption tax would be better.

I believe the government should get out of the business of eliminating risk.
I believe Social Security ought to be privatized entirely (yet still collected to make the near do wellls save something)

I believe the best way to deal with the high cost of healthcare is to cut about half the government regulation, enforse the remaining regulation with vicious force, get rid of HMO type insurance (this is the real culprit and Ted Kennedy caused it in 1970 or some such), make everybody pay to see a doctor and have a plan where they have a co-insurance like an 80-20 or 91-10 plan that includes a health savings account that is untaxed both going in and coming out.

I believe in protecting innocent life.

i believe in a strong military and blowing the carp out of our enemies.


what ever that makes me. i am proud to be it.

Cant help myself. even in a group of conservitives that think like me, I just have to pick a fight! LOL!

Really I think it is stupid to not allow the use a a valuable medicine that works as well or better than any other treatment for certain conditions because that drug is also abused recreationally.


really stupid.... especially when the drug in question (pot) is not physically addicting.

well if it is solely used for medical i dont have a prob, most peoples perception is obviously the abused product, lol

What I AM though, is a proud conservative. Hardcore to the bone conservative on economic issues, and a compassionate conservative on social ones......

(A flamin liberal on religious issues.....)
