How much will they have to cut to get rid of income tax if they don't replace it with something?? I understand they would save some by just cutting the programs and the ppl working for them, but i doubt if it will make up for how much they are no longer bringing in.Bring spending levels down to what they were in 2000...The federal income tax only accounts for 1/3 of the total federal budget...meaning if there was no federal income tax, the feds would still have $1.8 trillion to spend...

You can get into college with bad act or sat scores...just not gonna be some high end one...I think some community colleges dont have a cut off....and if u cant do good on them you'll get buried in college anyways...As far as getting into college not sure how prestiguos people think NDSU is but you can be mildly retarded and make it into that school. They recommend certain GPA's or ACT scores but the will still let people in anyways.

Although I understand that they could have interviewed 300 people or 300,000 people. Regardless, it is more publicity for Ron Paul, and shows he does have some support nationwide.

Im not trying to be a dick im stating facts those are not requirements they are guidelines that they start at. My roommate my freshman was only allowed to take 10 credits and one of them was like math 99 adding subtracting multiply and divide. No shit i help him do it.

I beleive it's common for state schools to have admission policies with provisions like "anyone from this state will be admitted as long as they can pay for it". Not sure what NDSU has but it wouldn't surprise me to find some language like that in the admissions documents.

Ron Paul sucks. I was really into him at first, but then I did some research about him. Acouple things that really pulled me away from him where that he wants to pull out of the United Nations and leave everything to all the other countries. Another thing is he wants to get rid of government sponsored things like COLLEGE FINANCIAL AID, medicare, and social security.Do you know how the United Nations works? The UN does almost nothing to help us as Americans, and in some occasions, even subverts our own Constitution with UN declarations.
Think about this for a second: what is financial aid? Isn't it just money loaned to you by the government at interest? It works like a massive cycle. The government taxes your money in taxes, the loans it back to you in order to fund your inflated education, all the while collecting interest on the money they've loaned you. I don't know if you have a job or not, but the amount I pay just in taxes every year would cover a full year at school. I don't agree with Ron Paul 100 per cent on everything; just on the things I think are most crucial for this country. Medicare and social security need massive reform and/or deletion as well. If you have anymore questions, just let me know.

I think education is an important thing, however college degrees are becoming diluted at an increasing rate. A change to the way we pursue education in this country is needed.

^ +1 to everything to everything u just said. The UN is basically trying to make ever country abide by the laws they decide on, and not what that country wants. There is practiacally no point to even have "countries" if everyone is going to have the same laws and/or currency anyways. For example the UN is pressuring all the countries to ban guns...
PS reshalghoul, are u Jordan?

Well this race is over. Time for Huckabee and Giuliani to lock the doors and board up the windows
--WWE superstar Kane has gone public with his endorsement of Ron Paul for President in 2008. The Big Red Machine explains: If you’re like me, you’re tired of unnecessary and exorbitant taxes, you’re tired of the dollar constantly losing purchasing power, and you’re alarmed when politicians demand that we surrender our constitutionally protected civil liberties, especially the bedrock principles of habeas corpus and due process, in exchange for “security.”

I've seen this written several times before, so I researched habeas corpus and due process so I made 100% sure I understood their meaning. When have politicians exchanged either of these ideas for "security"?

"On 29 September 2006, the House and Senate approved the Military Commissions Act of 2006 (MCA), a bill that would suspend habeas corpus for any person determined to be an “unlawful enemy combatant" engaged in hostilities or having supported hostilities against the United States”[3][4] by a vote of 65–34. (This was the result on the bill to approve the military trials for detainees; an amendment to remove the suspension of habeas corpus failed 48–51.[5]) President Bush signed the Military Commissions Act of 2006 into law on October 17, 2006. The declaration of a person as an "unlawful enemy combatant" is at the discretion of the US executive branch of the administration, and there is no right of appeal, with the result that this potentially suspends habeas corpus for any resident, citizen or non-citizen, of the USA."

Look under the, "Suspension in the United States in the 1990s and 2000s" section.
