Twitter is a noun, not a verb. Tweet is a verb.

My apologies, but I don’t believe in using the term “tweet.”

Good for Gary. I absolutely hate when he says “everything should be a cost / benefit analysis” because it is such an empty phrase (and a turnoff to many people), even though I obviously understand his point. But otherwise, I think he’s a pretty good guy and I’m glad he’s out there spreading a more classical liberal viewpoint.

Agreed. Cost to whom? Benefit to whom? In government, the one bearing the cost is almost never the one receiving the benefit. If we did a cost-benefit analysis on government spending, none of them would come out positive.

Gary agrees with you; however, he is a realist. He realizes that there will be government spending. All he is saying is, that just like in running a business, we have to do a cost benefit analysis on what we’re spending. This approach makes people realize how little benefit anyone is actually receiving, and as Gary says, it benefits the few at the cost of the many.

Awesome! He’s from my state! He did have a pretty good track record here as governor. Consistent and not such a politician. Ron Paul and Gary Johnson, same ticket.
