As far as the dangers of governing the United States "for the benefit of the rich at the expense of the many," who pays most of the taxes in this country? And whittling away at the "safety net"? If part of that net is the bankrupt Social Security program, let's start carving. Sure, spending on the war is grotesque, but there are plenty of grossly mismanaged "safety net" programs that are sucking us dry.
Hope your commentary on my post made you feel better, but it doesn't change the universally accepted and documented facts. Just because you say something is so, doesn't make it true. I'm imagining you are plugging both of your ears and shouting "Lalalalalalalalala!" By the way, I am a socially left-leaning Libertarian who cares about people but believes government programs are not the answer. Government promotion of privately run programs are.
