I'm a somewhat reformed libertarian. I decided that really complex ideas about what is a natural right could be abandonded as a basis for liberty after I read Von Mises's Human Action. He explained perfectly why statist systems lead to economic devastation and why ideologies like communism are impossibly broken. I have fun talking to wacko environmentalists, socialists, and other idiots because I am very good at attacking the philosophical foundations of their arguments.

My favorite tactic is to ask a radical environmentalist: Aren't we the product of the earth? Didn't the earth make us? Why are we the destroyers of the earth? We are the earth! When exactly during evolution did man and earth become separate?

I also like to screw with socialists by confronting them with mises's paradoxs about how central planning is impossible without the price system.
