Re: The Grand New Party
Sadly the new party simply bickers like the old parties. Global Climate Change/No Global Climate Change, I have my opinion, But why should a new party whose goal is limited government be in the pot arguing this?
If any scientists of note are arguing that in the course of my generation/my children's generation the world is going to suddenly and catastrophically cool, they are most likely speaking hogwash. Maybe our actions cause it, maybe not. Let private citizens groups collect private funds, study it, and say yea or nay, but a limited resource Federal Government need not stamp it's approval/disapproval on it. I am sure the car companies will fund research against it, and I am sure men/women of great wealth and concern for the longterm future of our species, like Saden, can fund the pro group. But don't create a federal dept of global catastrophic and possibly unchangeable events, or a bureau of great handwringing.
The goal of a limited government party should not be to side with one or another political agenda, but to say ENOUGH, we are here to provide a framework for citizens, and localities to grow and prosper, and not fear external armed or economic attack. How each locality chooses to set it's standards, within our constitutional framework, is THEIR choice and freedom.
Again see the 10th amendment.
