Re: Libertarian economics.

I've developed an affinity toward libertarianism in recent years, and before I classified myself as an independent. I've never completely agreed with the Republican party/platform, and I agree with nearly nothing on the Democrats' side.

What I like about Libertarian views is that they are intended to protect personal freedom and limit government encroachment. There are advantages and disadvantages to that.

I would like to talk about this, but I'm going to have to wait a little while. My kids have music lessons this afternoon, and then I have to go buy my husband a birthday gift - he's turning 40 tomorrow. He really already received his *big gift* (a motorcycle), but I think he'll be disappointed if we don't celebrate at least a little bit tomorrow.
