    Rand Paul's Plan To Immediately Slash Half A Trillion In Spending

    Look how interest groups lobbysts are opposing Rand Paul tiny 500B bill, imagine what the opposition would be if he proposes to balance the budget now. I say support it and approve it ASAP, and in the meantime find another 500B to cut. In 4-5 years, budget is balanced. Mission accomplished.

    Rand Paul's Plan To Immediately Slash Half A Trillion In Spending

    It's more credible than finger crossing and hoping the problem will go itself away. We all agree Rand Paul proposal is too small, but look how much interest group opposition it has generated already. Imagine all the lobbysts howling if he proposes to cut the deficit NOW = 1.5 trillion in...

    Rand Paul's Plan To Immediately Slash Half A Trillion In Spending

    Lobbies starting huge media campaign against Rand Paul fight against pork. At first glance I missed the 20B cut in foreign aid, it's so hidden and tiny. This 500 B proposal is too small, let's support it and approve it ASAP, in the meantime let's keep looking for another 500B wasteful pork to...

    Rand Paul's Plan To Immediately Slash Half A Trillion In Spending

    Foreign Aid, military and non-military has also got to go. No mention of it on this bill. Even if it benefits americans, it's hugely debatable, so there's no strong case to not let it go.

    Thanks to Wikileaks, the tyrant in Tunisia is gone! Who's next?

    U.S. Minister of Information, sorry, U.S. State Department spokesman PJ Crowley, says cable leaks had nothing to do with Tunisia uprising. "Tunisia is not a Wiki revolution. The Tunisian people knew about corruption long ago. They alone are the catalysts of this unfolding drama."...

    Why chinese mothers are superior.

    You have to let your kids get drunk every once in a while and have friends from all strata of society, otherwise they won't be able to come up with the next Facebook-like idea. I mean come on how much is a philarmonic musician salary? 100K 200K in a big city like NYC-LA? Not bad, enough to not...

    Immigration - the flaw in libertarian thinking?

    No, you make it look like I support illegal immigration which I don't. When Ron Paul was the Libertarian Party candidate more than 20 years ago, he said "We should have no immigration policy at all. We should welcome everyone who wants to come here and work." This is basically the default...

    Immigration - the flaw in libertarian thinking?

    It's impossible. There will be always people claiming that libertarianism never works and that more government and regulation is the answer to all our problems. Besides, political compromise is when two politicians give something to each other, usually pork, at the taxpayer's expense.

    Immigration - the flaw in libertarian thinking?

    Immigration - the flaw in libertarian thinking?

    No, there was a discussion a while ago and Ron Paul nicely summarized the libertarian position. Libertarians are in principle opposed to all kind of restrictions on freedom including capital AND labor freedom of movement. So, libertarians are IN PRINCIPLE opposed to immigration restrictions...

    Immigration - the flaw in libertarian thinking?

    I don't think restricting all kinds of immigration is productive, maybe a better solution is to restrict immigration to people who have something to contribute like investments, technology, scientists, engineers, otherwise they will just ask for handouts. But the socialism threat is always...

    Would you ever consider opening an offshore bank account?

    It's not a would-question, you SHOULD open an offshore bank account, as a currency hedge and deposit insurance, keep some small nest egg for emergencies like USD 100-200K. Be aware that these days is very very difficult to do it for US citizens and residents due to IRS regulations which amount...
