    • Location Out in the high desert, when I can make it back
    • Party Independent
    • Politics My politics are all over the map. I think the government should stay out of everybody's personal business and choices. If you don't think two guys should get married, don't marry another guy. If you don't think abortion is okay, don't get one dumbass. I like to pay the government to take care of the sick, the old, and the poor. I pay them to provide services so I do not have the headache of providing my own policemen, fire trucks, roads, networks, airports, schools, and a million other things that I like to have available. Everybody should pay the same percentage of taxes from their income every year. I pay about 30% after state, federal, parcel, sales and gas taxes, and every other nickle and dime tax that comes out of my pocket in a given year. If somebody has collected several million dollars in their bank account at the end of the year, they should be obligated to pay 30% too.

    Bio

    Born to a mechanic from Oregon, and a farmer from Texarkana. Raised in the country on the edge of the suburbs. I now live in Berkeley where I make a living amongst people who think I'm to the right of Rush Limbaugh, and who's family thinks I'm to the left of Malcolm X. I long for the desert, where my soul can run free to the horizon, or sit and ponder it's existence with the creosote and the sage.
