Previous thread, mocking and scorning this lamebrain idea.

I read that thread and saw nothing of the kind. I saw a couple of interesting questions, along with some obviously uninformed ones. Did any of those with questions actually go to the referenced site and read their proposal? Just the FAQ answers many of the objections I've seen. There also appears to be a forum on that site, so rather than speculating what they might think, perhaps those who object ought to go ask them?

Just my two cents. I'm new to this idea, but I'm surprised by the backlash, especially on a conservative forum. What they're proposing on a state-level sure sounds an awful lot like what conservatives have been advocating to me. Surely, the "benefits" of our massive federal beurocracy aren't worth giving up half our income. There has to be a better way, and they appear to have found it within the framework of the Constitution.

IMHO, and from what I've read so far, conservatives ought to be supporting this idea, at least in principle. Do we believe in liberty and limited government or not?
