What is that one Political Issue that is near and dear to your heart
I agree to your second part. I think the gov't overdoes it to a fault though, generally. I'll try to do more when i'm not in school and have a good job that I don't practially break even with.

Your favorite President or Politician and why?
in spite of saying all the (good) ones in the first ~40 years of this country. i could say Davy Crockett. served TN, was an avid "frontiers-man", and then fought mexico at the alamo. he's like a hero that isn't as famous as a president.

do you believe these are best personal ideals/responsibilities, or should charity work be required of people?

For Multiple Computer Whores
i used to use hamachi for D2..unreal tourney, file trading. i tried to start it up again.... if it's not the damnedest thing.. unless it's windows firewall. hehe great program my friend uses a vpn that uses port 80 (html), forgot the name, but the port makes it pretty much unblockable.... i'm a fan of soldat.. like worms but real time and "real guns". that will surely (decrease) your productivity.

Third party platform you can support?
i'm not going into it, but this could be said about about something else that is a "hot topic" in this currant race, and the past ~9 too. i'm sure you know what i'm talking about. on with the thread.

The BIG things gov't should do
i took an osha class. the best evolution of osha has been working with companies instead of being "the man" to fear...or so my teacher said. i believe it. but at the same time should their regs prevent more stringent regs at the state level... like how CA wanted basically kill ICE's when the EV-1 came out? too much federal oversight can kill the idea of state autonomy. i'm sure you realize this, these ideas just have to be very carefully put into place so it can't be abused. i know what mean with "national security"...but that planning/oversight is either private(with oversight) or state run, and some might say it's pitiful, now. i think it could only get worse ...like how education has gone since the dept. of education has 2x in size... we've not seen any real positives, and won't likely. federal oversight can be done in D.C., that's their "home turf"

Third party platform you can support?
great thread. a great step in personal responsibility. we have drug programs for "youngsters" yet some of them still grow up and do drugs... we had sex-ed yet we still have even children going out and doing that. people will do what they want even when given facts of what will most likely happen. degrading your own life (w/ hard drugs) even with this knowledge will still happen. PCS, just cause drugs would be legalized, doesn't mean the other laws are out the window. i'd imagine if meth was legal, somewhere a possible industry would rise...and be taxed to minimal income. but....they already make it for ADD kids and such, so it's kinda legal.

pretty much the same thing. +1

The BIG things gov't should do
most everything else is handled better at the state or local level, because any litigation involving the others does not happen at the national level. - Infrastructure, i took out because now a days that can mean transportation of all kinds, and also could cover energy infrastructure...so should that be nationalized?..sewers/water, mass transit? - basic safety standards ( I do mean basic) i know what you mean, but now adays if safety was deregulated, consumers by and large wouldn't buy things that would get below average ratings. if you mean to include environmental/health safety...if interstate (between state) pollution was a problem research would have to be done for containment or purifying... some very basic "epa/fda" rules could be useful, like water quality they could be combined eliminating some waste, tax $, vehicles, talent, etc.

Something that really pisses me off.
My senior yearbook has Jesus on it with a flag behind him, it's quite revolting for this day and age, this was from a catholic HS. and done because two ladies couldn't give in to the other so a guy said f' it and put the ideas together (the teacher was quitting that year too). i'm class of 02 so 9/11 played a big part of that.

tragic LA train wreck
cars and planes are king here. if regulations and "subsidies" were equal it would spur much better rail.
