Pretty much on board with all that. Bush is terrible on my most important voting issues which really all involve fiscal policy. For example, I can be convinced to go with the legalize pot argument simply so I don't have to use my tax money to "fight the war on drugs" and incarcerate non-violent drug offenders.
The government is and continues to get into businesses that it is not well suited for. Every time I can get the free market to address a problem for us, that is the way I choose. Far more efficient. Allign interests with desired results and watch human nature take care of the rest.
I feel really trapped and can see myself drifting back into a political apethetic state soon since my voice will continue to do nothing. There is not anyone out there for me and my vote. I HAVE no choice.
