My idea government protects property rights gun rights (within reason) life and liberty and all my constitutional rights. I can do anything as long as I don't violate these for any other individual or threaten there safety or property (like fireworks being shot up in the street in front of their house) I honestly don't mind pitching in for fire and police departments, roads and schools. I support a limited amount of public assistance like food stamps and housing subsidizing for society's most vulnerable as long as there at the local level this means not paying for high-speed internet, house phones and cellphones (my state gives these for benefits) I believe local communities have a right to make and enforce there own housing codes, I don't mind the FDA but it should be modernized used the information that the E.U, Australia and Japan use to cut red tape in the F.D.A and to have a state FDA agency have the last say. I also support regional governments to spend money to prepare for local disasters. As long as a corporation doesn't violate my Life (grounds for limited environmental protection and limited safety ) Liberty (Safety and so I don't become a slave) and property (also grounds for environmental protection) I wont have a problem with it. I support the government agencies that were outlined in the constitution (post office, Treasury ext.) I also support the F.B.I (for tackling illegal commence between states) The F.C.C not for censorship but for protecting broadcasting rights and the F.A.A to enforce flight routes. There might be a bit more but that sums up were I want government to be.

Were would you like government to be?

Simple. The federal government is there for two things. Deal with foreign affairs (like trade with federal currency and a federal army) and give US citizens to ability to control governments. Any "right" that the federal government gives to the US citizens should only be "rights" that give the US citizens the ability to control governments and doesn't give the federal government a chance to gain in power. Rights like voting, free speech, guns, fair trial, etc. the federal government can't use to gain in power. "Rights" like health care, education, roads, etc. should be ran by the states. The reason being is that we get government involvement in our life but we have the federal government to give us a way to control it. Also, government ran at the local level is ran by societies and it is a lot more personal. That means less corruption. States run their state base on their societies wants. I live in Nevada where casinos run wild and education is consider low. It is because that is what the society wants. Casinos run that state and the society wants it along with zero income tax and the individuals don't put a emphasis on education. There are some drawbacks in that when someone does get educated they leave to find a better paying job but that doesn't mean the state is failure, it is just different.



That system of government is exactly what the founding fathers wanted and the reason why we have problems is because we are getting away from that.

Well first all your so called parties are really 'corporations', which are listed in the Dun & Bradstreet.



Also are all puppets of the British Crown, this has nothing to do with Royalty, as the Crown is private and owns the City of London, England. It deals with all the world banking, also the BAR, which is law, and stands for British Accredit Register.

These are the only two grips on America that needs braking.



As the Illuminati made Rome their religious centre, Britain their banking, and law centre, and America their Forces centre. To take over the world.

As small as possible. Think pre 1970s government size.

You mean "ideal" and not "idea".



If you don't know the different and you are a fan of the notorious Ayn Rand, I doubt you have any ideals.
