where are you in the political spectrum? describe your politics...


i am socially libertarian, i believe that the restriction of one person by another is evil (which is why i am not a democrat even though i am liberal), the government has no right to make laws that restrict me from doing what i want to do (unless it’s harming/negatively effecting somebody)

economically i am progressive, the government must step in occasionally to protect the rights of the working people and to keep everyone relatively happy. (which is why i am not a true anarchist since i believe it is necessary for some legislation)

Yeah i agree with most of what you say.

I think people should have the right to do whatever they want (no matter how harming to themselves) as long as it doesn’t directly harm anyone else.
This nanny state "protecting the people from themselves" bullshit really has to go.

I think new buisness should be incouraged with grants but once they go beyond a certain size they should be taxed(increase competitiveness). People should be allowed earn as much money as they want in their lifetime.But i think there should be limits on inheritance (they didn’t earn the money so they don’t deserve it),people will be incouraged to spend all their money before they die( help the economy).
There should be laws against overcharging to keep inflation down..(this is a huge problem in dublin:where i’m from)

I also think more should be done for the enviroment.
All electricity should be produced using non carbon renewable energy sources.New houses being built should have solar panels/wind turbines on them.All materials should be recycled.......any material that can’t be recycled should be banned.

I could go on forever.........but i’m not going to.
