Bachmann says she'd consider minimum wage changes

lower wages will surely help the economic bubble/burst cycle that has increased since the 70's. obviously she reads ZERO reports on this subject from academia. freaking economic idiots and their ideologies...

the main is just another supply-sider douche-bag...lower corporate taxes haven't created a job in 40 years

* Ron Paul is a big seller of the delusion of limited government. government provides the buffer between labor and capital. the US has the highest rate of poverty in the OECD out of all industrialize country's and is surpassed by Mexico and Turkey. right now the US has the highest level of poverty in 50+ years. reduce the buffer between labor and capital and these will increase drastically. but this is only one of the problems. the US is the only country where corporations have more power than government and this is because of the infiltration of lobbyist and money into politics. the US gov failed the people by not controlling the corps.

* he is a supporter of limited government for people but not for politicians. he wants to keep his tax payer subsidized healthcare but take away medicare, etc. for those that can't afford it. he's a hypocrite both him and his son. just about all of them have profited from government in one way shape or form. government needs to be fixed in certain areas and decreased in certain areas. given the size of the US population the US gov is actually quite efficient, it has ranked in the middle of the OECD in terms of efficiency but we have more people than almost all the other OECD countries combined.

Both of these look like rantings of someone with a tenuous grasp on the English language.

The first point has nothing at all to do with Ron Paul and suggests that you're missing the idea entirely. The second...what? Where are you getting your information about this "hypocrisy"? The position on health care hasn't ever changed.

He's mentioned specifically that he would be fine with supporting Medicare in a more limited capacity if those funds were redirected from other areas. The complete plan for health care involves removing inter-state regulations, shifting tax benefits for out of pocket costs to the taxpayer, and setting a hard cap on malpractice awards.

I know that I'm wholly unwilling to accept the level of efficiency "given the size of the US population". I'm much more interested in efficiency as an absolute which, IMHO, can only really be achieved by the return of a majority of responsibilities to the states from whom they were forcibly removed by FDR (in violation of the Constitution) during the New Deal nonsense.

where are the research papers from academia that show that "limited" government would improve the US economy, increase GDP and real incomes? they are no papers form MIT, Harvard, Yale or the LSE on the benefits of limited government, why not?

you do know that words are abstracts of reality and open to interpretation right? this being the case how does the korzybski principle effect that interpretation?

what other countries with large populations have implemented this model of government in modern times?

history has shown time and time again that when people of a population get desperate and "fall" for politicians and leaders preaching radical new solutions that things always go from bad to worst.
