Without the State, who would tell people what to do?

I think that the three branches of Government as balances of power would be the starting point. One thing is for sure, we need to do something about the Shadow Economics and the 303 trillion dollars of backstopped derivatives of our tacpayer dollars. I forsee giant massive fraud with that HSBC debacle coming on.

American Conservatives think that is part of America to let the Banks have their Laissez Faire attitude because they will get us out of the crack but it's wrong to use tax payer dollars for the poor. I personally think the welfare system definitely needs an overhaul but something about that other attitude doesn't make any sense.

I am a Tea party Republican.

We need government. We have government to protect us.

Government is not bad but in the USA it is out of control.

Government no longer works for us. We work for them.

Government is not meant to represent a group. It is meant to represent the entirety.

God.

One difference between conservatives and liberals: Conservatives are guided by TRUTH. Liberals try to GUIDE the Truth.

Republican since before she was born… and PROUD of it.

No one with the force of law.! Now wouldn't that nice?

I have a brain that I use to decide what to do. Don't you?

I'm sure you'll find someone to tell you what to do.

Whomever else had the most power.

Corporations and the wealthy

just like u capitalist domination-minded conservative sheep want

I would...

Duh.
