Ted, > You are suggesting that the choice is the AZ law or chaos. However, that's not true. There are several other options.....like sueing the fed. gov't instead of passing a law that is blatantly racist and only making things worse. If the federal government did what AZ wants to do, people will just sue the federal government for racism. > My undestanding is that your idea of limited gov't essentially ignores the plight of the less unfortunate. Is that my misunderstanding? And if so, what would you offer the less fortunate under a limited gov't? I would voluntarily offer my time, my money, and my organizational skills to help those less fortunate. This does not require government, and I would argue that it is not the job of government to fix. Believe me, you would make a much bigger difference if you directly volunteered your resources toward helping the poor, rather than wasting it on partisan politics. The only reason you want to involve politics is to use the collective powers of government to force charity upon everyone, and that never works (despite how much self-righteous liberals want it to).
