    Trump is a legitimately elected president, and having a female president has no inherant value.

    So I have to disagree with you there.

    I though of some more policys on family matters, probably much more contraversial than my previous post.

    Criminalise divorce on marriages that happen after 2020, except where evidence of abuse can be demonstrated.

    5% reduction in income tax on married couples that marry after 2020.

    Legalise abortion for any reason up to 15 weeks.

    Criminalise abortion for any reason after 15 weeks under murder laws.

    Restrict adoption rights of same sex couples or single individuals to only children of the same sex.

    5% reduction in income tax for 10 years following adoption of a child.

    You all have good thoughts and ideas and intentions. Drac….what would it mean to privatize the BBC? I mean, what does it mean to privatize in general?

    To remove public funding of the BBC via TV licences. The BBC would have to fund itself by selling shares and advertisement slots.

    Good to see you King. You have a great point in what you are saying. Think i’ll think about that some more. Not that i can particularly change any thing but what you say is very interesting and deserves more careful consideration.

    Hey Linda! Always good to see you.

    #1071234

    To be honest though Drac…is the T.V licence Public Funding or just another tax? I mean the BBC don’t necessarily rely on the licence money as they sell their stuff where they can. They have more revenues coming in than the T.V license money?
