Less Government? How would that work? I've heard so many people say that without understanding it. Do you understand exactly what less government is?

 

I'll give a few examples here…Smoking bans for one. IDK how it is where y'all live but in a lot of counties around here have forced smoking bans when it should be up to the individual establishment/bar/restaurant/bar on whether or not smoking is ok. They are slowly starting to control food. In the city of new york you can't buy a 32oz polar pop anymore. This is bleeding into our schools now as well. It's just a matter of time before you get in trouble as a parent because your kid is fat. 

Another is the “no child left behind act” where if your school isn't good enough the government sends in state mandated teachers to replace the old ones(theres other things involved in the act).

Yet another example is the federal “War on drugs” which is a complete fucking failure. I was watching a podcast with graham hancock and he pretty much hit the nail on the head. He said we already have laws in place for people who do drugs/drink and do bad things afterwards. They should have absolutely no say in what we put into our bodies as long as we aren't shouting fire in a crowded theater aka stepping on other peoples rights.

Gay marriage is another one. Why should the government decide who is ok to marry and who isn't? At the very least it should be a state level issue(really it shouldn't be one in the first place)

I guess it's pretty obvious im a libertarian….That's what less government is to me. Them not controlling every aspect of our lives because they feel like they know whats best for us better than we do

Here’s some food for thought, how can cici’s pizza charge $7.00 for a pizza buffet where it appears that everyone pigs right out? Yes, I’m one of the select few that actually likes cici’s pizza, I would even pay more for it. It just seems to me that people take advantage of their kindness, it’s there own fault, really. One time I ate around 28 slices of pizza for $7.00, how can they profit? How can they not only still exist, but continue to expand? How is this possible? Now, there’s some real food for thought. Especially since I think that the government is in on it.

because a good restauranteur can get the cost of production for a single pizza down to less than a buck. 

  awfully paranoid, arent you?

Good points, Slum. Especially the war on drugs. The fucking CIA are drug dealers. What's the point of having a government if they can create the CIA in the first place? With Hitler's nazi ss, of all people.
