  1. "public" money and parenting by Loundry · · Score: 4 · on Candidates' Positions On Internet Filtering

    ...paid for by public money...

    You mean taxpayer money. Bush favors the government taking money from high income earners and using that money to police other people's kids.

    The most disgusting aspect of this is that the Republicans claim to be for smaller government then propose a big-government "solution" to a problem that does not exist.

    It still comes down to a matter of parents deciding to be responsible for their own children. The government has no place here. When asked the question about Internet content filtering, Gore and Bush should have both replied, "It's not the job of the government to decide what people's children should see and should not see. It is the job of the parents."

    Which is what the candidate who is getting my vote believes.

    the point is, the government provides a lot of services. most of them are valuable. you may not like them or agree with their value, and you are free to express your dissenting opinion.

    Let's see, the government(s) I live under take over 40% of what I "earn". (And that's a conservative estimate!)

    They give part of that 40%, in the form of Food Stamps, to the lady across town who's too fat to work but still needs her daily 1/2 gallon ice cream fix (don't tell me it doesn't happen; I've been behind her in the grocery checkout line!)

    Yeah, that's a valuable service!

    Vote!

    Didn't Pat Buccannan say he would get rid of the FBI if he's elected?

    I don't know about Pat, but I bet Harry Browne of the Libertarian Party is willing to remove any federal agency.

  4. A better candidate, a better party. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1 · on 2600 Staffer Arrested During Republican Convention

    Go read what Harry Browne, the likely Libertarian nominee has to say. I realize that many Slashdot readers have rather well-entrenched political views. But consider whether Browne's position and that of the Libertarian Party may be closer to where you stand than either of the two faces of the Incumbent Party.

  7. Re:What we need is a tax on Homosexuality by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on Analyzing the Real Impact of Taxing E-Commerce

    You are absolutely correct, sir!

    Not that homosexuals are evil people, but that it is exactly this kind of slippery slope that our government is falling into.

    It must be stopped, and it must be stopped now!

    I'm voting for Browne

  8. What about the libertarian candidate by TheLurker · · Score: 5 · on Candidates on Net Issues

    They didn't ask what Harry Browne thinks, but I bet I can guess. How are most slashdot readers planing to vote? Almost every geek I know is a libertarian, though many don't realize it..
