How about making things fair with libs and cons?

Question

Conservatives pay for the government services they use
And Liberals pay for government services they use
This is the only way we will ever get along

Answer 1

sounds fair to me, but I'm not paying for the war in iraq

Answer 2

I think that's a great idea.

Two ways to implement it -- first, drop most taxes and require each person to enroll in the services the want.

Some are mandatory -- everybody pays for the roads, and the police and the criminal courts.

The other is apportioned by whoever in Congress votes for spending. 75% of all appropriations come from taxes assessed on people who live in the districts and states where the Congressfolk or Senators voted for the appropriation. If you don't want to pay for it, vote for a different Senator or Congressfolk.

Answer 3

The only problem is that such a program would require Libertarians to implement, and BOTH sides seem to hate them with a passion!

Privatize everything, and we'll see what people are willing to pay for.

Answer 4

As Andrew Jackson would say, you've made your decision, now let's see you enforce it. Conservatives believe they don't have to pay for the things they want.

Answer 5

I'm with crush...and by the way, if we every audit the military budget and saw how much is wasted, we could probably pay for all of our services and that would be the end of it.

Answer 6

No, the way we will get along is for everyone to respect the fact that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that we need to treat eachother with civility.

Answer 7

Great point. I hope more people like you get the message out!
