I'm Sure He Had A Good Reason.

Come on, I'm about the least likely person to smoke pot that you've every encountered. Seriously. I just actually like his economic policy and think he believes in it. Obviously there's going to be some element of pandering to Republicans if that's his party, but I don't know what suggests that he isn't actually a libertarian (economically at least).

You can't be a libertarian just economically. That just makes you conservative...

Conservatives often throw money out the window as well (war-mongering types like Bush).

Or they can just be bought by corporations. Like, in my own province we recently had a more conservative party in for 10 years or so and our taxes went up, environmental regulation down, more money to basically exclusively serve MNCs for resource extraction. I'm simplifying, but I don't actually see the correlation between lower taxes and conservatism play out in reality.
