Right off the bat, I am a Libertarian. I am very pro capitalist and pro free market. I believe in small government and maximum freedoms of everyone. I am a Christian Mystic and I am totally opposite of those fundamentalists like Pat Robertson and Bush. I don't believe in going to church because of the corruption and their love of war. I am a history major so I am well read and educated.
The first thing I will NOT do is say "I'M RITE CUZ I SAY SO!" or "I'm right because the Bible says so." I don't want to have flame wars or insult matches. I like well thought out debates and hopefully I can find some here. I am open to all opinions and won't insult anyone. So I'll fill out that little "what are you" quiz and I'll start the debates.
Initials: EDS
Age: 20
Political Affiliation: Libertarian
Religion: Christian Mystic
Ethnicity: Czech
Class of Origin: Working Class
Location: Chicago, Illinois
Job: Umpire, student
Favorite Political Magazines or Newspapers: I don't read political newspapers or mags because they are all biased badly.
George Bush: Terrible. One of the worst US presidents ever
Foreign Policy: Once we withdraw from Iraq and Afghanistan we should pull our military forces out of the Middle-East and pull back most troops from abroad. Stop blindly supoprting Israel and stop interfering with other nations.
War in Iraq: Totally Against. But finish the mission and withdrawl once the Iraqis can control the country
War in Afghanistan: Support it
War in Lebanon (Israeli Invasion): Totally against
Same-sex Marriage: Support
Women's rights: Support
Abortion: I refuse to debate this issue anymore. I'm so tired of it.
Gun Control: Against. Stats show that nations where more people own guns have less crime
Government: Small government with little interference. The government's only job in my opinion is to have a police force to protect us from inside criminals and an army to protect from outside forces.
Education: Privatize. The USA is ranked last in the western world in education because of the government
Globalization: Neutral. It's happening and there's no stopping it though.
Capitalism: LOVE IT! Free market capitalism rules
Socialism: Hate it. But people have a right to believe in it.
Fascism: Hate it.
Communism: My biggest enemy. Communism is arguably the biggest killer in modern history
Favorite Democrats:None.
Favorite Republicans: None
What political philosopher(s) or figure(s) would you identify yourself most with? (In terms of alignment of beliefs)
Leo Tolstoy, Nikolai Berdyaev
