I think Kevin believes in the purity of an unregulated market. Nicholas, that's the first thing you've said that I agree with. :)
I believe in taxation to support the military, the police, and certain public works. Beyond that, I do not believe in welfare. And to be candid, when people ask me about prayer in public schools, I reply that I'm not even that crazy about public schools. <s> I'll stop short of saying they should be abolished....but I'll say that there is tremendous intellectual corruption in the public school system.
