Where to begin? We are libertarians, not libertines. We believe in liberty, not license. The politicians who claim to represent your values (family, hard work, sacrifice) are actually betraying them by stealing from you and everyone else. They say they have to steal your money so they can promote your values. No!!! The ends don't justify the means. You are the best spokesperson for your values. You don't need smooth-talking thieves to bribe people into accepting your values. Your values can thrive on their own. Bears repeating!
Thanks for the compliment; it's important that we back each other up on these issues. I appreciate that our fellow Freepers treat us with a lot more respect than the left-wing whiners and their fellow travelers, even when they disagree with us.
