With the way we are developing technology, ballistic missiles are not an issue or soon will not be an issue.
You can't really say that with any confidence, though. That's why I referred to it as an open question. We can tout SM-3 tests and China can tout DF-21 tests, but at the end of the day those are just tests against "red team" missiles; neither of us can adequately simulate the other and we both have every incentive to hype the results.

With laser and "rail gun" technology.....I am very confident. The fact that we know about this tech is scary. Deep Blue was 1971 or there abouts. We found out about it in the 90s.

Taxes - no, thanks
Welfare/disability/food stamps- I'm not for the government taking the money to fund the programs; after the gov't has already taken the money, then I say that people should take advantage as much as possible.
Guns - anti-government regulation
Abortion- This is a tough one for me because I am not sure when "life" begins
Education- should be privatized
Marijuana - War on Drugs is awful
Private property rights must be supported
Military- privatize it
Military spending - See above
Free enterprise and capitalism must flourish
Farm subsidies - Like I said earlier, the real crime is when the government steals the tax money. After that, I'm not too concerned who or what the money goes to ... except for maybe the military because I'm not a big fan of money being used to kill a bunch of foreigners, but that's just a personal preference.
National endowment for arts- abolished

Taxes - switch to a sales/consumption tax. Everyone pays but the more you buy/consume the more you pay.
Welfare/disability/food stamps- It needs to be regulated WAY more and the policy needs to be changed every few years since as technology increases there WILL be less available jobs. Food stamps need to be abolished and people should have to go to special stores if they wan't government food and there they will only get the basics. Zero help for illegals.
Energy- keep doing what we are doing. If any country starts fricking around with our supply tell them we wont invade them like we currently do but we will bomb them over and over until they agree to our terms.
Health Insurance- make it how it was a few years ago and also get rid of most of the current regulations we have, that would lower costs for everyone.
Guns - legal
Abortion- legal
Marijuana - legal
Private property rights must be supported- duh
Military- bring most of them home
Military spending - cut it in half and use the remaining funding almost exclusively on the Navy, Air Force and Special Ops. If we feel the need to go to war it should be to win, not to occupy, so we need a stronger Air Force and Navy which will allow us to blow up anyone that messes with us. If anyone ever wants to attack us out Navy and Air Force can keep them from reaching our shores while also bombing the shite out of their home country.
Free enterprise and capitalism must flourish- for now but that may change as technology does.
Farm subsidies- I dont know enough about this to comment

IDK about this one. Why do you think this would be better? Maybe I have seen too many movies about the future and privately run militaries taking over the country but it seems like a bad idea to me....

While I also hate the wars and agree that blowback makes the US less safe I don't see how a privatized military would work for the US without the taxpayers paying for it, and if they did it wouldn't solve any of the problems you mentioned.

More funding to NASA is the way to go in this regard. It's criminal how we are neglecting a great department that has spurred so much innovation and lead to the comfortable lives and technology that we have today.
True dat. I couldn't face the day without a glass of Tang made from recycled urine.

You're too fricking stupid to even know when you're being insulted. I seriously fricking hate people like you. You are what's wrong with this country. Do us all a favor and and move to some shithole socialist third world country instead of trying to turn us into one.
