That is not anarchy nor is it the thinking of an anarchist. You talk out of both sides of your mouth if that is what you really think. You hail the efforts of Obama and the Demoncratic tax and spend plan but yet you say you want to keep government out of your life. You can't have it both ways and you certainly can't think that Obama and the currently Demoncratically controlled congress is going to conduct operations that are designed to stay out of the life of the population. That is not their plan.

I want government out of MY life, as long as I'm not doing harm to another. I think business needs to be heavily regulated though.

And I would prefer government NOT have to spend to get us out of this mess. Unfortunately, I do not believe that is any longer an option, if we want to lessen the effects of the recession.
