I'm also tired of them, and I don't spam folks who are liberals or leftists. I've generally found that people's political views are formed when they are of college age, and rarely change significantly after that. Not sure why this is so, but I think it is.
So that makes 2 things we agree on... :) And I think that you are right about college. Mine have taken minor changes (maybe that's because I haven't ever finished school), like on crypto for instance (I admit it... used to lean to the anti-side), but school choice does have greater significance than I think a lot of people give it credit for.
Just to be clear about this, in no way, shape or form am I just "waiting for governments to collapse."
I wasn't refering to you specifically, Tim. The folk on this list for (well, the most part) are a lot more active than the population at large (pat, pat). When I wrote that I was thinking of this little enclave of folks that used to frequent several lists that I was on and post enourmous tirades about how then the government shriveled up and died of it own accord everything was gonna be great and so on. Gimme a busy anarchist to an couch potato anything any day...
I'll make the charitable assumption that "I prefer doing something with the tools at hand to dreaming" is not an insinuation that we libertarians or crypto anarchists are idle dreamers.
As above, I should have been more careful about the insinuation. Tim, Didn't know you did charity. ;)
The Jains eschew eating living things, while the Mayists *only* eat freshly-killed meat. But you knew that.
Wow, that makes three things...
