  1. I'm a libertarian but am admittedly not crazy about Gary Johnson for a few different reasons... may I ask you who you're supporting, if anyone? Are you into the Green Party?

  2. I am in the Green Party, and I am supporting Jill Stein for President.

    What wall street did was clearly fraud, and Mr Still is right to point that out. While I agree that those banks should have been left to fail, I don't care much for the Libertarian Socioeconomic policies of "so sorry that you're unemployed and homeless, that's just what the free market needs right now."

  3. I feel like government meddling (actually, Federal Reserve meddling, which is a private institution with more power than the federal gov't) has caused the economic maladies we see. However, I'm open-minded to the safety net, if it's not federal. That's a whole can of worms, though, so I'll leave it at that for now. :)

    I wrote a blog about how cool it would be if the two dominant parties were Green & Libertarian. Lemme know what you think.
