My Take On The Issues
Pretend for a minute that I'm running as a candidate for say...the presidency, why not it could happen right? LOL! Anyways these are my basic beliefs on the issues I would have to discuss, and this would a brief overview on my page if I was running for office on what I believe:

Abortion: Most Libertarians believe you own your body, so you should make your own choices, you have rights and freedoms, even if you're doing something wrong to your body. BUT I fall into the category of about 49% of Libertarians who believe the baby owns his/her body too, even if he/she is dependant on the mothers for life. I believe abortion should banned not because of moral or religious beliefs, not because "I am opposed to abortion" as if was an issue like taking drugs. I believe this is a matter not of personal convictions, or spiritual beliefs, but a matter of human life! The infant is a human being and has a right to life, a right that comes before the woman's right to choose.

Drug Wars: I am not pro-drug, I'm not a guy who smokes pot and injects heroin and fights for the rights of someone to do it for the sake of a good time. But I believe, like most Libertarians, that you own your own body! You have the right as an American to choose to mess it up or keep it healthy, we don't ban fastfood because it's unhealthy (though we seem to be coming to that day frighteningly enough). The drug wars are also a waste of money, a waste of time, and a waste of life. We will NEVER get every country to eradicate its drug crops, as were trying to do overseas, and we will never keep drugs out of this country, as we learned with alcohol prohibition doesn't work. So not only are the drug wars impossible to win, but they are unconstitutional.

Education: Seperation of Education and government! Ever notice how public schools invest more money, but get less done than private schools? Ever notice how kids who graduate from private schools go out into the workplace with more oppurtunity, and are more likely to be accepted into colleges, a lot of times getting better scholarship than public school kids. On top of that forcing children to be educated by the public system is unconstitutional, parents should have the option of what school to send their kids to, and the option to homeschool if they so choose.

Healthcare: Government healthcare programs are making the problem worse and not better, in fact people don't understand it, but there are more people than ever without healthcare because prices are going up. Why? First of all medicare and medicaid both give the government an almost automatic monopoly on senior and child healthcare, therfore they just lost a chunk of their customers. Over-regulating drug companies with the government food and drug admin. doesn't help either, with the enormous amount of money it takes make a prescription drug fit the legal requirements, why would a company charge less than they do now? There would be no profit! The answer to healthcare, is getting the government OUT OF IT.

Social Security: Social security must be privatized, people must be given the option to handle their own retirement, and not HAVE to put money into a system that returns nothing and leaves them hanging when pension day comes. Tax exempt retirement accounts would certainly be a plus as well.

Taxes: Taxation is theft! Eliminate the income tax and seriously reduce spending, contrary to the Bush Policy, we must cut government spending AND lower taxes on middle and lower-class Americans, this could be the answer to the economy, think of what we'd do with the extra money if the IRS just...disappeared one day. Property Tax is unconstitutional, you paid for it out of your own pocket, you own the land, and the Bill of Rights say you're allowed to own that land. If you own a house and I charge you rent for it when it wasn't mine to begin with, is that fair? Also eliminate the schooltax since the system needs to be privatized, this could do alot to help pay tuition for private and religious schools.
