They want the capital gains tax abolished entirely. They want no estate taxes at all. They want to abolish unions and child labor laws and Social Security and - always - most forms of welfare.<br /> <br /> I'm not being paranoid. These are all things they actively pursue and talk about in public. Their dream is the total destruction of the social safety net.<br /> <br /> If I'm wrong about any of this tell me why. But I'm not wrong.
