I note the comments above by Dugway Duke accusing this letter of being socialistic. I really wish I could use that letter to tar every one of the Free Traitors for what they are people who seek to destroy their fellow Americans and their nation for their personal gain. However I must let the reply to my letter and the response to it stand on trheir own merits. This letter was crafted to avoid any pro Socialist stands in any sense of the word. So clearly Dugway Duke to attack it as socialism was defending Big Government and a handout of taxpayer dollars for no value recieved to the American people.

I really didn't see anything socialistic in your letter. Again I think this gets to the point when Theodore H. White said about the "Republicans being for virtue," maybe to some of the free traders that don't get it, they would see this as socialistic but it really is not, it is about the health and well being of our country. Trouble is, some see the virtue as the end game and would cut their own nose off to spite the face. You cannot have that because if you don't realize there is a problem and don't do anything about it, you'll just end up with a Democrat who will but his solution would be socialistic more often than not.

BTW, thanks for the ping, I'll get to work on my letter using yours as an example.

Since what I am proposing in this letter is cutting a government agency and enforcing the Immigration laws of the USA and what I proposed in this letter was strictly limited to those two issues I was careful to avoid being subject to the accusation of not being conservative. Now there is one conservative argument against my proposal for which I do have answer when and if it is raised. that is the companies taht took advabntage of OPIC in the past have a right to have their contracts respected. the answer to that lies in the fact that they do not have any right to enter in any future contracts and they do have a roght to compensation for abrogation of their contrcatual claims from prior activities. My personal solution is those compensation funds should come from a revnue tarriff on imports from nations that have recived OPIC subsidized investments.
