You ask for Liberalism and claim to be a Conservative.
Are you willing to pay more for a Private police, justice, prisons, border control, education, security, healthcare (well that one's a yes), firemen, ambulances, street lighting, business regulators, sanitary, and a whole lot more of the services that we all take for granted?
Are you willing to lose the Net Neutrality? Unless you believe the Right Wing wouldn't break that given the chance.

You are missing it Paul, I do not in any way claim to be conservative
And a flat tax does not create less revenue, in fact with the elimination of bullshit loopholes, and a simpler tax code it would create more. (like no you can't write off the private plane you took to Fiji to fuck your secretary undisturbed)
Among the left sided policies I could get behind are free healthcare are opposed to the Insurance company protection act, as well as free college.
All this as well as police, military, etc could be maintained with a true balanced budget, but special interest on both sides have long ago made that impossible.
It is much better to say fuck it and blame the other side for obstructing things like we do now
