God have marcy on every living soul when Bin Laden
&Co comes to power.
And isn't Bin Laden the one who also wants to destroy Israel? So, what is this guy bin-laden-murderer-doing on LC files and forum?

Who are your favorite authors of political philosophy?
Patrick Henry, John Locke, of course many of the Founding Fathers: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Samuel Adams. I thought those men were, at the time they were extremely well-educated. They could talk us in circles these days, we wouldn't know what they were talking about. I really respected their observations and analyses of history past.
What is your feeling about our system of tax?
I think one of the intents of the Founding Fathers in keeping to indirect taxation, and really not providing for direct taxation except in unusual circumstances, was to keep government limited. They realized that the more income the government had, the larger it would grow. Our President told us during the subcommittee hearings on crime and terrorism that we should not be focused on Ruby Ridge and Waco, we should be focusing on bombs. Well, that's the tendency toward a narrow view that is contributing to the problem. Each one of these events that I've named are just symptoms. A good physician is going to examine the symptoms to find the disease. And no one's paying attention to what the disease is. They are not trying to identify it. All they're trying to do is to treat the symptoms. People have to really analyze, step back and try to think what is the cause of all this? It's all inter-related, whether it be the events I named or the growing resentment of taxation in America, obtrusive government. There is larger problem.
Do you think our democratic system permits a full airing out of grievances that anyone might have against the government?
I believe there are many checks and balances built into our system of government. However, I think many of them have been circumvented and right now you have an arrogance of attitude, an omnipotent attitude. An example would be property seizure, asset seizure. If it's unjustified, what do you have to do to get the stuff back? You have to sue. They know that people don't have the money to sue the federal government, to go up against their unlimited resources.
You said you became disillusioned with war during the Gulf War experience. Could you tell me why?
When you're on the ground, and you're not in the rear of the action, you're right up front, you realize that the people fighting are no different from you. They've got a wife and kids at home, they've got a family. They don't want to be out there. And you don't want to be there. You realize you must fire on them or be killed yourself, that's the reality of war. When we took most of the surrendering Iraqis the first day and saw how badly they had been treated and learned that the Republican Guard was behind them, not to back them up, but to make them hold in position, it completely changed your view of the war.
