  Peace is a very idealistic goal. I believe in peace, peace through superior firepower.
  The top two percent, are you referring to taxes? If you are, how fair is it if the top two percent pays more than 35% of the taxes? Shouldn't everyone pay the same percentage of their income in taxes? Why do you feel that if I make $100 in income the government should take $50 of it while a person who makes $10 should keep all of it? Why don't we BOTH pay the same percentage of our income?
  I do not follow the Republican party blindly. I critize them when they are due.
