Assume, for the sake of argument, that Obama wants to end the drug war, end all foreign wars, end all regulation, end the income tax, and finally, disband the state. who would I vote for?
I would vote for Obama.
This is a completely meaningless hypothetical.
I agree that it’s not how things are. I just wanted to say “if you have the choose between ending war and ending abuse at home, which would you choose?”
Through this mental exercise I myself came to the conclusion that while I say “those Harvard economists can’t tell us what is best for us” I share the same fatal flaw and find it much easier to find within myself.
