Only thing I would side on the theory of reducing "big government" would be its enormous amount of laws and statutes which has become a paradox to the Constitution itself.
The theory of reducing "big government" does not lie in the reduction of its health and human services which in actuality is a small piece of the economic "pie". Reduction in programs taking care of a countries humanitarian needs of its citizens while the rise of its failed correctional facilities increases.
Whatever. Thats just the simple short version of those thoughts. People are idiots.
Habeus Corpus is key tenant to our way. Most other policy descision's constitutionality is debatable, i can admit that even as a strict Constitutionalist.
But, NDAA and its disregard for Habeus Corpus, well, that's as blatant of a Constitional violation as it gets. Hell, the Magna Carta of 1215 even laid out those rights for all human beings.
"No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed w/ force against him, or send others to do so, except by lawful judgement of his equals." - AKA....everyone is guaranteed a trial by jury of his peers.
Well, not in America anymore.

Is Guantanamo Bay, Cuba part of America?
I agree with you... which is why I oppose Camp Delta in Guantanamo Bay. If we want to call ourselves Americans... we need to stop acting like Soviets.

Funnny. I was just reading the Writ of Habeus Corpus. It has no meaning. They will red tape you if they want in kangaroo court system. We vow justice but there is none.
