Also I suspect they may be much closer in actuality to my position than they are making public. Ryan’s rejection of Rand’s philosophy did not completely ring true to me, and for Romney to have advocated getting rid of social security would have been political suicide. <br />Perhaps; perhaps not. I could be dreaming. But given that the other side is a nightmare, rather than being no more than a delaying action, they may actually be one small step in the right direction. <br />Steve Dnoreply@blogger.com
