"The state" is here to stay.
Why should the wealthiest of Americans eliminate something that serves the
interests of monopoly capitalism so well?
We haven't even touched on the issue of local governments, local
politics...how local businessmen use the power of LOCAL governments to
keep competition to a minimum...how LOCAL businesses make sure that cities
regulate every aspect of commerce on the small town level.
I'm sorry, Mr. Paul. Even IF we could conceivably eliminate all of the
fiscal excesses of the bloated, corrupt Federal government, citizens would
only encounter similar forms of injustice at the local level.
I participated in the civil rights movement years ago, and I remember
very well how states, counties, and city municipalities would gleefully
violate the civil rights of Americans with impugnity.
It was only the power of the federal government that brought an end to
the Jim Crow era.
If you want to believe that deregulation will usher in some golden age of
prosperity for all, you're welcome to believe that, but I don't think
that's likely.

CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
