I hope you don't expect too much support in this dream of yours.

You aren't qualified to use the word pragmatic.

Damn, you beat me to it. 😉

 

[brycejones]

For someone who complains about the government regulating anything you sure want to be able to tell women a lot about abortion. How is this consistent with your no government philosophy?

I didn't read that far until you mentioned abortion. Glad I did because I would have missed this gem:

a law allowing anyone to damage or destroy abortion clinics while removing all public funding for them.

 

[nageov3t]

just out of curiosity... why Virginia?

it's not my dream because it's not ideal... it's pragmatic.

it's to get the support of the religious right. if i want the rest of my pragmatic proposals enacted, then i guess i should be willing to compromise a little bit. i also am not really all that "pro-choice" anyway, because it costs too much money from the taxpayer and there are also some abortion doctors that are pretty evil.

How many religious righties have donated to your superpac so far?

 

[CPA]

Anarchist, I usually don't attack your thoughts and ideas because I like your libertarian spirit, generally. That said, some of your ideas in this thread are the looniest things you've ever put to electronic print.

Police targeting limbs? (lol, good luck with that)

7 tax free holidays? (one's not enough? Why 7? seems arbitrary)

Deregulating homeschooling, but then requiring a permit? (why should homeschooling be based on a permit?)

 

[OverVolt]

Okay OP so you hashed out your opinions. Now vote that way. All you can do.

 

[Agent11]

...
a law allowing anyone to damage or destroy abortion clinics while removing all public funding for them.
...

You honestly are for the legalized wanton destruction of private property?

 

[EagleKeeper]

State will go broke and have no way to pay to needed services.

There are other issues that are seriously flawed in your proposal.

Take your OP and then come up with a detail paragraph on defending such as to why and the actual benefits of doing so vs the liabilities. Show that you have put serious thought.

I'm not sure pragmatic means what you think it means. That, or you're seriously out of touch with... Nevermind.

The religious right is the antithesis of liberty.

He doesn't vote. He refuses.

 

[dawp]

why don't you go buy you own private island? that way you can live your utopia.

no body will ever agree to what you have laid out here.

 

[Thebobo]

repealing all prohibitions and regulations on drugs while releasing all non-violent drug offenders.

.

Sign me up

 

[zinfamous]

Sign me up

the catch is, all of the non-violent drug offenders are released on condition that they sign up for his abortion clinic-bombing gestapo.

 

[SMOGZINN]

Let’s go though this one item at a time and figure out what would happen if this was implemented.

a constitutional amendment allowing the nullification of any u.s. govt laws via executive order or through the State legislature.

Well, we have had something similar to this in the past. It caused a major war.

a law decentralizing State assets and debt on representation and repealing the drinking age (returning control of roads to the counties).

Okay, so we lose the road system as largely populated areas are the only ones able to afford to keep their roads up. Roads in lightly populated or poor areas quickly deteriorate. Cities become isolated, produce can not move from the farms to the cities. Famine quickly follows. People leave cities in droves, our economy collapses.

a constitutional amendment allowing taxes to be paid in gold at below market value and to retire the federal reserve note/USD from paying virginia's public debts.

I’m not even sure what you are saying here. Do you want Virginia to have it’s own currency that is backed in gold? Not that it would matter once the roads go.

legalizing drunk driving, allowing manslaughter to be punishable by death.

There are a lot of deaths on the deteriorating roads followed by lots of executions.

exact (or proportional in cases exact isnt possible) restitution for victims in all cases.

Virginia the land of blind toothless people!

tax reduction; mainly repealing the current corp profits tax and replacing it with a business profits tax: 1.9% on businesses that have 150 or more unique employees and $1bn or more in revenue in one year no deductions from the old system repealed
and no profits outside of virginia shall be taxed

And now business quickly leaves the state before the roads get to bad to get out.

making the income tax brackets:
1% 0-20k
1.25% 20-50k
2.25% 50-125k
4.25% >125k
on salaries and wages only.
getting rid of standard deduction and making the personal exemption 7.6k
everything to be adjusted by CPI each year.

The rest of the state’s infrastructure collapse as there is no money to maintain it.

a Constitutional amendment limiting police, mainly limiting arms they may use when on duty and prohibiting them from targeting anywhere other than limbs if no one but them is in danger. and they may not go on high speed chases (i have a cousin whose grandmother and her car got fucked up by a police chase in virginia, so it doesn't really protect the public anyway). the iq cap on police officers is to be removed too (i think virginia has a 125 iq cap).

A group of five Texans with guns aand supped up off road vehicles come in and set up their own Barony. We call it The Concurred Lands of Little Texas.

all user fees for public services repealed.

Not that it matters since there are no more public services.

easing up driver's license and learner's requirements.

So kids can get out there and die on the deteriorating roads even faster, and their parents can demand the right to ram their cars into the drunken children drivers that survived.

repeal of all other gun control legislation

Guns for everyone BUT the law enforcement! Maybe Texas won’t need to conquer. We will just come join the fun.

constitutional amendment prohibiting people from suing the State, while laying out guidelines for suing agents of the State.

The state employees, who haven’t been paid since you passed the new tax laws, have all quit. Who you going to sue?

repealing all prohibitions and regulations on drugs while releasing all non-violent drug offenders.

Not that the unarmed cops could stop the roving bands of well armed starving citizens from getting their drugs anyhow.

no taxes on drugs, tobacco, or alcohol other than general sales tax.

\
Who would be able to collect it?

7 sales tax-free weeks

You mean for the few people that don’t just take what they want at gun point?

reduction of prepared food tax rate to 8% and at least 60 tax holidays for it in one year

Food. What a quaint notion. How much is 8% of a daughter to the local drug lord that controls the farmland with his well armed militia?

State board of medicine reduction, licensure reduction.

Who would enforce it anyway?

a constitutional amendment disallowing the State from accepting medicaid funds.

This assumes that there is still hospitals, or other forms of medical assistance available. What little medicine is available can only be gotten at gunpoint anyway.

a constitutional amendment disallowing forced medication.

Lol

a law reducing compensation to public university presidents.

Don’t worry, they quit to.

a law repealing the Standards of Learning assessments.


a law making vocational assessments more common and earlier while making dropping out of regular school easier.

a law deregulating homeschooling (anyone who applies for a permit can receive it).

All the teachers quit too. Homeshooling is all there is. Really, mostly it involves how to fire a gun while not dropping the food you killed the last person for.

no legislation of immunizations.

What? You can’t vaccinate against bullets or starvation, so I see no problem with this law.

a law repealing special police protections for teachers if they're endangered, threatened, etc.

The teachers already quit, remember?

a constitutional amendment that disallows the State from limiting freedom of expression in anyway on public property.

No problem. People will just shoot anyone that expresses anything they don’t like anyway.

a law allowing anyone to harass (but not physically) those who have abortions for a limited time

You mean kill right? Eye for an Eye and all that.

legislation taxing 45% of the profit of each abortion, plus a 45% abortion tax.
a law allowing anyone to damage or destroy abortion clinics while removing all public funding for them.

There is really no one left to collect the taxes, no do many women survive the back ally abortions, so this law makes little sense.

legalization of all contraception but 10% excise tax on it.

So no taxes on drugs, tobacco, or alcohol except this one type of drug? I’m afraid that contraception is not much of a issue anymore anyway. Most people stopped worrying about things like consent a few laws ago.

all other abortion legislation repealed.

LOL Legislation! We don't need no stinking legislation. We rape the women and kill the men!

so what is that - somalia minus islam?

 

[Anarchist420]

I&#8217;m not even sure what you are saying here. Do you want Virginia to have it&#8217;s own currency that is backed in gold? Not that it would matter once the roads go.

no State mint, it would make one ounce of gold pay about $2k worth of taxes or something like that.

Okay, so we lose the road system as largely populated areas are the only ones able to afford to keep their roads up. Roads in lightly populated or poor areas quickly deteriorate. Cities become isolated, produce can not move from the farms to the cities. Famine quickly follows. People leave cities in droves, our economy collapses.

perhaps some roads can be under VA State control. or a private company or a private non-profit can operate them if the counties agree to it.

There are a lot of deaths on the deteriorating roads followed by lots of executions.

the roads dont have to deteriorate.

Virginia the land of blind toothless people!

not necessarily. the murderers could become slaves to their victim's estate. or if there is another bernie madoff he would have to provide restitution for his victims and maybe pay a fine to the State of the amount he stole. if he cant do that, then the State can punch him or something.

The rest of the state&#8217;s infrastructure collapse as there is no money to maintain it.

how is there no money to maintain it? public expenditures can be cut. a lot can be saved by not punishing those who didnt harm anyone. a lot will be saved by homeschooling and by reducing expenditures on police weapons.

Not that it matters since there are no more public services.

who says there wont be anymore public services? dont forget that not all of what i said has to go together.🙂

Don&#8217;t worry, they quit to.

not all of them will quit. some of them may still like their job. but if they do quit, then someone will take their place and people will have more money for education. tuition would go down. the president of my alma mater has done an excellent job, but north of $300k/year plus free housing while he's president is a bit much.

You mean kill right? Eye for an Eye and all that.

no, just make jokes to them or calling them excessively. the State could have an anti-abortion bureau that calls them a limited number of times for a limited amount of time... maybe 35 calls in one day.
