Ok, first off, I was just babbling. Second off, freedom of certain things like press, property and shit like that is alright with me. You need to understand what taxes are used for. Many people want to do away with taxes. I say keep it. Why you say? You need to understand what the government does with your money. They use it for our military, restoration of certain things, fixing of roads, ect. Also, you say the government should have few roles. Ok, that\'s messed up. All the government should be there for is military purposes (defense)? Nah. Without the government, everything will be messed up. Warlords and gangs will run the streets, terrorism, homicide, zero rights. The country would be third world in a matter of months. Decisions would take forever to go through, everything will be in disarray.
how do you have freedom of property? the government can take it at any time.
As far as restoration of roads and what not... why can\'t these things be handled by states hiring private contractors?
Most things can be put into private sector with higher quality at much less cost. Its called compittion, the government has none.
As far as terrorism, you need to be doing a little more research as to why we have a terrorism problem. I am no anarchist, I don\'t believe in no government, just much smaller government. you have made some statements I don\'t think you can back up. How would warlords and gangs take over? The police aren\'t gone, or the military. You don\'t get it, you lose rights every day. Ask yourself why you are punished for damage you never do. And what descisions?
