Paul makes fantastic points, especially about Bush running as a “no nation building” candidate. I once got asked, “As a libertarian, do you want to get rid of Medicare?” I came back by saying that the last government program I’m thinking of slashing are social services. They pail in comparison to what we’re spending in the Middle East blowing stuff up and building it up again on repeat.
