CSPAN - Charles Murray of AEI (and his RIDICULOUS slam on women!!)
Watching Yet Another Wanker Neocon session on CSPAN.

Charles Murray of AEI just said, re: child support, that NO child support should be required of men for children born out of wedlock. That if a woman wants a legal right to hold the father accountable and to obtain child support, she should marry him.




Oh.

My.

Fucking.

Gawd!!!!!!

2. So he's in favor of a form of legalized prostitution?
No matter what the woman's feelings are, if she wants the pay, she has to play?

Very enlightened attitude, but I guess most Repugs have to pay for sex anyway, so they don't see anything wrong with formalizing the arrangement.

4. He has a lot of crackpot ideas
About 20 years ago he came up with this idea that people should have the option of buying unregulated meat, that way the meat would be cheaper. People would be able to choose to buy the more regulated and expensive meat, or they could take their chances with the unregulated cheaper meat. So you would be able to buy a hamburger at McDonalds for 39 cents but the wrapper would say "unregulated" on it. This idea was literally laughed out of existence and Murray never talks about it anymore.
