Libertarians
« on: November 26, 2007, 07:17:01 PM »
I've noticed that every aspie board I've been to has a disproportionate amount of libertarians. This makes sense, in some ways. I thought maybe reactivating the libertarian club at my school might be a good opportunity to meet other aspie-ish people, among other things. Not sure that I can maintain an interest in politics from any place in the traditional spectrum, but then again I'm not confident I know enough to do something like this. On the other hand, this would be the time for it, because the Democratic National Convention is going to be here next year.

Who on this board is a libertarian (either member of a party or not?)
!!Super atomic enema!!

I am not registered as such but my views generally are more inline with them than not

Occasionally. The US libertarians tend to
be less what they purport to be, and more
simply more radical Republicans, in a lot of
cases. Certainly was the case in NY, where
there was a definite advantage to suborning
the minor parties. :-\

They give  libertarians a bad name in my opinion. I have met more than few though

If money is a form of free speech (as declared by
the US supreme court), why not guns?  :laugh:

I am a Libertarian both socially and economically.   If I wasn't, then I wouldn't be a Libertarian at all.
:P   Internets are super serious.

I am a card carrying member of the libertarian party.
I came to this world with nothing
and I leave with nothing but love,
everything else is just borrowed.

Fuck it, we'll do it live.

I'm fairly libertarian in philosophy but don't think much of the USA libertarian party.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.
