"Isolationism is a foreign policy which combines a non-interventionist military policy and a political policy of economic nationalism (protectionism). In other words, it asserts both of the following:

1. Non-interventionism - Political rulers should avoid entangling alliances with other nations and avoid all wars not related to direct territorial self-defense.
2. Protectionism - There should be legal barriers to control trade and cultural exchange with people in other states."

In other words, NOT what Ron Paul is encouraging. And you really think we need the IRS? They complicate shit far more than it needs to be and there's no transparency. FairTax would mean everyone pays the same, no unscrupulous tax breaks for the rich.
