The problem, in my view, is that unions are forced to represent people who don't pay dues. That puts us in a weird situation where, either we force people to pay dues even if the don't want to be represented, or the unions are representing people for free, which isn't fair for them.

A little off topic, but I think a good way to try and stop human trafficking would be to go at it from the demand side. Legalizing prostitution provides a safer, legal alternative and get rid of the need to go through an illegal and potentially coersive process. Thoughts?

Thank you for the long and detailed answer, especially when it comes to veterans and the military! I have a follow-up though. Have you given any thought to what percentage tax rates you'd support? Significantly lower than we have now? About the same? Would you raise the tax rate for anyone, other than just closing loopholes?
