Why? Because they actually expect people to be responsible for themselves?

Well, yeah. You know. **** happens. The problem is society, not
criminals. It's all about racism and antisemitism. It's about
homophobia and reaching under a stall and being misunderstood.. It's
about the poor being abused and "immigrants" being discriminated
against. It's about crime caused by citizens having "easy access" to
guns and taxes caused by the other party. People aren't responsible
for events. It's just the times we live in, right?

So then you support raising taxes, unbalanced budgets, federal
restrictions on gun ownership, congressional pay raises, government-
paid junkets, increasing the power of the executive branch, the
Patriot Act, and the Iraq War?

Those who oppose all of these things should vote for Paul. Those
who oppose even MOST of those things should vote for Paul.

Nonsense. "The government" never paid a dime for his education, or yours, or
mine, or anyone else's. The *taxpayers* paid for it.

The VA charges $8.00 for the same prescription drugs you can get at
Walmart for $4.00. But VA doctors will not write normal prescriptions,
just ones good only good at the VA pharmacy, so we are stuck with the VA
overpriced drugs. Negotiated drug prices at the VA are a joke. If Bush and
his masters really believed in free enterprise, they could just order the
VA doctors to issue normal prescriptions like every other doctor does that
could be filled at the patients choice of pharmacy.

With both examples a state could negate those laws by losing federal

When you compare the money the federal government gives to education
to the cost of what it requires states and school districts to do to
get that money, it is doubtful that there is much benefit for anyone.
