If you are anti-Tea Party, does that mean that you are pro-Tyranny, wasteful spending and gov't monopolies?

I think everyone is against tyranny and wasteful spending, but unlike tea party activists, I don't think it's wasteful to spend money to give little kids a good shot at a decent life, even if that means we must help their parents as well. The Tea Party is, in fact, pro-tyranny. It believes that private businesses should be allowed to discriminate, which means that if Macy's doesn't want to sell products to black people it should not have to. That's the kind of mentality that existed in Nazi Germany and led to the horrific crimes against the Jews and others. I'm not sure what you're referring to with regard to government monopolies, but regardless a democratic and transparent government is going to be far more honest than any business that can keep it's dirty deeds secret and only has a responsibility to its shareholders, not to the American people
