-Ism's in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. -Ishes are okay, though.

(And on a somewhat related note, I don't have to bum rides off people anymore, unlike Ferris Bueller, to whom I give credit for at least one of the sentences above. My sons gave me a car for Mother's Day. :D :D :D )
Nice :)

Do you know what libertarian means?
Yes. For example, see the typical fare of libertarian fantasizing here:

We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have. They get rid of some of the people who have been there for 25 years and they work great and then you throw them out and they're replaced by criminals.

I thought you were libertarian, fundamentally, as you say: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=158359&p=2854286&hi ... n#p2854286
Myth is misused by the powerful to subjugate the masses all too often.

I have no idea what I am. I'm kind of all over the place as far as ideological purity goes. Depends entirely on the issue. Often makes voting within a first-pass-the-post duopoly rather painful.

That is true. I think we can have some self-reflection.
We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have. They get rid of some of the people who have been there for 25 years and they work great and then you throw them out and they're replaced by criminals.

Still seems to cover it for me. Well, that and the Texas Hold 'Em dilemma of libertarian economics.

Yeah, they're republicans who want to smoke weed. They usually have some very strong opinions about age of consent laws too.
