He’s better than Paul because he’s not totally insane (ie he doesn’t want to explode the Federal Reserve and plant the Confederate Flag on its ashes) but he still supports a bunch of dumb regressive policies like the free market, thinks tort reform will solve health care, think it’s a good idea to privatize Social Security, and thinks the budget deficit is the central issue of the day (including supporting an amendment to the Constitution requiring a balanced budget every year, which is massively stupid).
He’s genuine, like most libertarians, and has good stances on foreign policy and civil rights but he’s still not the right person to fix America’s central problems.
why?I don’t completely hate him and I do like some of his ideas. Granted, I disagree with some of his policies but, overall, I think he’s a good balance between genuinely caring for the people and their rights and being realistic about it in his approach. If there’s some glaring holes missing, please inform me as I’d like to make the most educated decision I can.
