In real politik terms, I would seriously consider what I am willing to give up to minimize this. If that means gov't land, or a reduction in income tax for a period, I would consider it.

Not me. I don't cotton to havin' a gun to my head.

And I'm NOT going to give my money to Shaquille O'Neal just because he's black.

Like it or not, you do have a gun to your head. You might want to figure out how to get that gun in the hands of Alan Keyes as opposed to Maxine Waters.

Your hyperbole is not helpful, quite frankly, I'm willing to have a thoughtful discussion that could perhaps enlighten us both. I'm not going to waste my time to discussing this with someone who won't honestly think about it. What if the price of your freedom was letting Shaq not pay taxes? What if the price of a divided black electorate, and thus the long term domination of the Republican party and platform was a reduction in taxes? You could argue that is not the case and will not happen. When you argue that you are simply going to have none of it, you might as well join the losertarians...you are on the road to irrelevant.
