No ......there is another option....as any good sailor knows.....actually three. Foundering and Sinking and finally the break up beaches of India to be turned into rebar.

You deserve more than one thumbs extra for that. He also said Congress is America's only true home grown criminal class.

I put income taxis an error but it does lead to this thought. The proposed by Rand and Cruz enhancement of a business tax to lighten the load of the taxpayer is an income taxi. We pay the percentage as part of the bill. Each corporation or business hires staff (the drivers and dispatchers) to handle the excess work. The destination is always Washington DC. It's a thinly disguised fair tax that WITHOUT dumping income tax first is just a world class mondo tax hike and a poorly disguised version of the Pelosi/Clinton enhanced VAT. Where's the value in that. That leaves if I recall Rubio and Fiorini. The rest are all self exposed leftists oh yea and der Fuhrer wannabe.

Most of the time those of us who think that' s a good thing also state it excludes the careerists who are politicians not soldiers. The term is REMF for Rear Echelon Mother Feathers. No one holds them in any level esteem or respect. They are just one of the problems to be solved in preparing for battle.

With the recent and ongoing cuts guaranteed they will be the bulk of those retained. Not a good thing as they do not uphold their oath of office. Might's well count them as part of the protective echelon.

Depends on the core beliefs of the individual. One who has slopped at the public trough is called a socialist corporatist and are a part of having made things worse. To be honest an evaluation of Trump for example and an evaluation of a certain Austrian turned German of the early 1920's has too many parallels for my taste. The other side of that coin is it possible to become successful without sucking up to the government? Very few at the top have done so.

I disagree on income tax as in any form it is a fascist control measure of government over people which should be Citizens Over Government.

In this case the saying when you have the citizens by the balls their hearts and minds will follow is only half true. The only thing that follows is what government steals at the point of a gun. Ergo some income taxis the favorite caliber of the left.

Adulthood is not a function of age. It is the least important requirement. Ditto on paragraph two. Start with disbanding the Department of Education and NEA funding Both NEA's

Give themhttps://www.galtsgulchonline.com/addcomment/* something to reach for that is worth while and provide the means they will lift themselves up. That condition does not exist as of yet. Bored with their toys children playing games involving butterfly wings does exist. Have you watched the video of the anti student protest folk singer? Pay attention to the furnishings of the play pen.

no to property ownership unless there is true property ownership. I assume you are referring to real estate and structures. At present we only purchase the right to be liable and pay a form of rent or leasing fees.

Yes on the other with commissions restricted to combat veterans and high public offices restricted to combat veterans. They are the least likely group to start wars and the most likely to win wars started against us.

Government is a group of people. If they are independent and free the outlook is far different than those who are just part of an all powerful collective. That's invariably caused by the collective entity becoming the only entity with former citizens as atoms, molecules, cells or other, replaceable parts

But if government is controlled by individuals who recognize rights and responsibilities go hand in hand and put that knowledge to use by voluntarily opting to serve a certain period of time as part of whatever system is set up they have in doing so proved or disproved their capabilities to be allowed or selected for higher responsibilities by the individual citizens.

One of the times when acting as a group is necessary but also recognizing it is fraught with danger.

Long winded way of saying voluntary military AND other form so of service.

Heinlein's one phrase was not restricted to military service only.

The other phrase put an automatic penalty on bad voting habits.

The skin in the game when voting for war was the one the voter lives in...not the amount they could pay.

Loaves and fishes?

In that even we shall be in counter-revolution mode and all recruits welcome
