What does that mean? Because government is uniquely suited to experimental research, the kind that isn't tied directly to product development, which is indirectly a big subsidy for pharma if it ever leads to something.

You could change that by getting government into the drug/device business, which would come with its own set of problems, but I don't think you want to take it away.

Big Ag
But keep subsidies for small ag? That doesn't sound like it would work either.

I want to be socially liberal by federal legislation making sexual and gender orientation protected classes. I want to strengthen and expand the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and I want to promote stronger communities by using scattered site housing for Section 8 and other public housing.

I also recognize I am dreaming. But I am socially liberal and fiscally conservative.
And very much not a libertarian.
