Why do you have to raise a private army? Why don't you just raise enough money from private citizens so the government wouldn't have to tax the rest of us so much? Isn't the real problem that you can't raise enough money privately, therefore you favor using coercion to force the rest of us to pay for the Iraq war?
Since you and others can't raise sufficient funds privately to give to the military, so that no taxes have to be raised, perhaps people don't really favor funding the Iraq war?
