The Liberteens are goin' down...

Harry Browne is just pointing out that equality under the law doesn't apply to running for office. The people setting the rules have rigged the game. I notice you didn't touch the subject of his argument: "[You are] trying to make the campaign finance laws more equitable and more efficient; but the people who actually write the laws have no such motives. All they want is to assure that the laws help them get re-elected."

How would you feel, if when the Democrats seized control of Congress, they crafted the campaign laws in such a way as to compel Republicans to meet different, more difficult, standards to put their candidates on the ballot?

Libloather is far too caught up in hating an infinitesimal portion of the population to worry about shamless violations of the 1st amendment.

I notice you didn't touch the subject...

I didn't touch anything.

Consider how a free-for-all candidate's debate would work. Perhaps I don't want to have to sit through 30,000 candidate introductions, and have to hear the Gunslingr3 Party candidate speak about sling shots and bazookas. If the Gunslingr3 Party can get more than, say, 10% of the vote then bring them into the big arena, and keep the other 29,997 candidates in the Not Ready For Primetime room.
