Before any American votes for a Liberatarian they better fully understand what they are NOT saying.

It's scary indeed.

What would that be? That, if we were living in a country as envisioned by the founders, there would be no guaranteed security, that you would have to be responsible for your own actions, that no one would be forced to pay for the education of your children, that no one would have to support them if they took drugs and could not support themselves, that no one could be forced to support other's children if they could not or would not do it themselves, that no one would be forced to supply you a job, health care, or to support you in retirement.

Is that what they are not telling you?

Or maybe they are not telling you that no one would prevent you from owning, using, selling, or buying anything you choose. Or maybe they are not telling you, no one would be allowed to force their views down anyone elses throat regarding religion, or philosophy, or any other personal belief.

Many people are scared to death of freedom. It means being responsible for one's own life, and never being able to force anyone else to pick up after them if they screw it up, and never being able to force someone else to make sure they are happy, and never have to worry, or even to think.

No wonder your scared.

Hey Hank

Thanks for backing up what I said. I'm surprised your not scared. But, then again, when you consider beauty as being skin deep it all sounds great. Doesn't it?
