> 1. Have you ever dealt with government as a consumer of their bureaus? I went to a government run university. I critiqued waste there constantly to the consternation of many there and even my mentor professor. It should have looked like warehouses... as should our capital. Not grandiose architectural propaganda. I'm against ALL government funded "art" including ALL sculptures, monuments, not just Civil War traitors. We all deal with government. DMV, IRS, I'm a building contractor I deal with incompetent inspectors. Etc etc, I often commiserate with my conservative clients. We all have stories to tell... but... we don't die in the same numbers when earthquakes hit. Its a double edged sword. Laws against murder are "regulations"... I'm for those regulations. 2. What can you point to within the federal bureaucracy that works well? I'm not going to make a list... but have you ever driven over a bridge? Have you ever driven on the interstate highway system one of my favorite President's spent billions on? Eisenhauer? Sheech. Would you mind it if your neighbor dumped toxic waste right next to your lot boundary? Get real. I critiqued Clinton mercilessly for getting rid of Glass–Steagall Act which protected consumers quite well for 50 years. Gramm-Leach-Bliley not only led to 2008, it made it INEVITABLE. > AT&T look almost as bad as government. Absolutely the worst assholes. > but it would take a Donald Trump I'm a LIBERtarian. Trump is incompetent. Bill Weld libertarian VP candidate in 2016 said Trump should be tried for Treason. Weld was so wildly beloved as governor in WAY BLUE Massachusetts for his no nonsense fiscal policies that WORKED... he was RE-ELECTED in the greatest landslide in Massachusetts history. Libertarianism isn't anarchy... it's not anarchy that Oath Keepers want. It isn't ANTIFA anarchy. I get very tired of teaching both liberals and conservatives what Libertarianism is and isn't. Fools mostly. Ignorant.
