Getting the Feds to 20% of GDP
I thought this Federal budget proposal by TJIC was interesting for a couple of reasons. Not the least of which is the sight of TJIC trying to be reasonable and compromising. Libertarians (as with other political extremists, and make no mistake we are extremists) tend to skew between those who want anarcho-capitalism and will accept no less and those who seek for improvements at the margin, believing that the world is only going to change so much. I would normally put TJIC in category 1 but it is interesting to seem him delve into category 2. Even I, normally a category 2 guy, can't totally get behind this plan as there are just two many programs, in the words of David Stockman, that need to be zeroed out.
