I remember reading an article about houses without a land line are usually liberal. And that most polls dont call cells. Could that be the bias were seeing?

Legalize freedom Restore the republic Those are the best IMHO. For liberty! Is good. But it almost abounds like something you yell right before you attack or blow something up. Main stream media will pick that up. They already think of us as extremist, militia types.

One of our biggest problems is our naivety. We seem to forget were in the game of politics. We need to realize that there are no friends, there are no enemies. There are only strategic opportunities. We have to realize that anyone can turn on us in an instant. But that doest mean we can't use...

I agree with Forsmant. You have to separate kids by abilities. Or better yet, advance the use of technology. Use 'intelligent' software that pushes individual students to the edge of their abilities in each subject. And pushes them in the subjects they are worst at. And rewards them when they do...

We need more friends. Especially friends in high places. Id rather have Glenn Beck rules the airwaves than Rush Limbaugh.

My sentiments exactly.

Well, if he does what he says, ill give him credit. But more than likely, it will just end up with more government in the schools. I am surprised he mentioned charter schools though.

You pretty much got all that I know of. As far as If you hadnt mentioned him, I would have. Not because he is leading the libertarian party in any way. But he is definitely changing the way that people look at us. Be it for the better or worse. And I know hes converted more than a few to...

Just like the topic of the thread says. Is all social conservatism a violation of the first amendment? Or does this only apply to a national scale? Only 'congress shall make no law'. Not 'no state'? I guess what I am really asking is 'is everyone here so completely and utterly socially liberal...

Which is pretty much what I was saying. No ones trying to actually take over the world. Except for the UN...

What do you think the Muslims want to do? They basically just want to convert everyone so they can keep their religions interests at heart.

Google: Dont be Evil Muslims: We dont want to take over the world Both=crap. But what religion doesnt want to take over the world? Almost all religions send out missionaries to try and convert. The only religous organization I can think of that dont actively seek to take over the world are the...

A realm of ideas and art. Things that only people can create. I disagree. With the advent of computers and the internet, nothing is safe. One day youre going to pick up a disc, and its going to have every song from the last 50 years. Art is copied so easily that it holds almost no real value...

Loved the books and just watched the movie again last night. I dont know if its libertarian. But it certainly does point out some obvious absurdities of government. Also, I think you can read anything with a libertarian bias. There are few books that I can read and not think "Oh this guy must be...

Do you believe that we will ever reach a point technologically, socially, culturally, whatever, where we move beyond capitalism? For instance the effect robots will have on the economy over the next 100 years is incalculable. Some economists have predicted mass unemployment because of this...
