@gunderwood, That would be more along my line of thinking.

BTW, it's amazing to me the number of politicians that suddenly have changed their minds on this subject. Some conviction in their beliefs there.

I've noticed this, these kind of rallies do have alot of young people, yet every photo or video I've seen of a Republican speech/rally/whatever is packed to the gills with old folks, why the disconnect there?

Gunderwood I would be 100% ok with that. However the states infiltration of marriage is pretty deep. How would we work out things like not forcing a spouse to testify. How would we work out the dissolution of assets in a divorce. Child us today disputes.......etc etc etc

I am not saying these things can't be worked out, just that it is more than just the tax code.

Yes, there is more to work out. However, like most things, the government wants their cut so they keep digging in deeper.

and I ain't talking SOCIAL conservatives, I'm talking "STAY OUT OF EVERYONE'S BUSINESS" conservative, who hold that Guv'mit coin purse as tight as a Senior Citizen at Picadilly for a blue plate special!
That's actually a clasically liberal view...before the commie progessives queered the word liberal.
