Hell, I may have found someone to vote for! No Federal Income tax? :yay

The piece you offer here is not a very objective one. The author very clearly has an axe to grind. Worse yet, he makes several assertions without even trying to substantiate them. The only time he backs up a claim is when he quotes Badnarik's promise to lecture congress on the constitution should he be elected.

Nothing loony about trying to ensure that the people whose job it is to understand and abide by the constitution should have some clue about what the document says. I'm all for that.

Nice post Seattle. Not a biased nor unthruthful word in it. I find Libertarians to be about the same as anyone else, and possessing more common sense than any Democrat I know. At least their political ideals aren't akin to being a herd of sheep as socialism is.
