He said it again today in his acceptance speech. I wondered what was going on when Speaker of the House, Denny Hastert published his book which detailed a ground-up overhaul of the federal tax system. Then, last summer, we heard Dubya reiterate his plan to partially privatize the Ponzi scheme that is Social Security as well as dumping the federal income tax as we know it.
In today's speech, Bush claimed a mandate and touched on those two subjects.
I think he's serious. I think he wants to remove the yoke of government control that is the power of both the income tax and Social Security which allows government to spy on our financial affairs and control our behavior by offering us a few bucks in tax deductions and credits.
As a "conservo-libertarian" I can't say that I'm 100% satisfied with a Bush presidency, but the thought of a Kerry presidency and 1,000 pounds of rock on my chest sounds a lot worse than a Bush presidency and 150 pounds of rock on my chest.
All that, and four Supreme Court Justices. Not to mention four more years of not having to worry about being a felon for possessing the wrong rifle or magazine.
