I’m glad you asked that. I’m a Libertarian because I believe in personal autonomy and freedom and the free market. I don’t believe that the govt should be the one taking care of the poor and unfortunate. But someone has to help in this respect, so I do it. I have principles, and you all can say whatever you want about them, but at least I live by them. You’ve read all my rants at WestCoast about his idolization of Barry Bonds in the MLB thread so you know where I’m coming from in this respect.
That being said, I’m not really a hardcore Libertarian. I don’t believe in getting rid of the federal income tax entirely. I don’t believe in absolute personal freedom. I don’t believe in legalizing all drugs. I don’t believe in getting rid of govt bureaucracies like the FDA or the EPA.

Maybe you missed the part about “not really a hardcore Libertarian”. Nowhere in the Constitution am I granted the right to use drugs. The legislative history of this country clearly suggests that it isn’t a fundamental right. So I believe it’s up to the states to decide for themselves whether they want to legalize because keeping drugs illegal simply isn’t a violation of any fundamental right that I have. For all you idiots out there who call me a “liberal”, how you like them apples? My view on the application of the Constitution to our personal lives is the epitome of conservatism. I don’t support substantive due process in most cases before the Supreme Court either.
The only argument I’ve heard for legalization that’s really gained any traction in this country is to legalize weed for the possible tax revenues. I’ve expounded on this subject in great detail in the past on here. But for now, I’ll be succinct.
You see, it’s an utter fallacy that legalization of weed would lead to tax revenues and profits for the state. The Board of Equalization in California produced a study in conjunction with AB 390, which turned into Prop. 13 on the ballot last year. The study showed that the state could potentially lose up $15.5 billion if weed was legal. Not only that, the language of the bill itself made it virtually impossible for the govt to collect taxes on most of the people growing and consuming weed, because it would have enabled anyone to grow within a 25 sq. ft. space. How is the govt going to collect taxes from me if I grow weed and don’t report it? And how many people are going to pay inflated prices at cannabis clubs, who have to maintain high prices to pay their $50 per ounce tax, when they could just legally grow it on their own?
So I don’t support legalization for this reason. And that is VERY Libertarian. I don’t see anything libertarian about the govt regulating and taxing a product. If they were to just legalize drugs and forget about them, I’d be fine with that. But it’ll never happen that way, so I stand firmly against any legalization effort that will lead to govt regulation and taxation, especially when it’s dubious at best that any revenue will be made in the first place.

I know this is a small point in very fucked up thread, but the Constitution doesn’t grant you any rights. It delineates (limits) what the Federal Government can do and how much it can trample your ‘inalienable’ (natural) rights (the ones granted from the Creator-- you know, from that other document).
In fact ‘weed’ was quite legal until certain lobbies successfully got prohibition laws passed against it.
But, I digress. If you’ll excuse me now, it’s my turn on Scrabble on the iPod.

Dude, all that money hasn’t done shit for you because you’re still a fucking idiot. I’ve been stringing you along purely for my own entertainment for a full fucking day now. You’re like a puppet on a string. All I have to do is make one provocative statement in your general direction and you jump to and fro just like I want you to. You’re a goddamned pawn.
The best part is that you’ll probably put me on ignore, which would thrill me to no end. And if you don’t put me on ignore I guarantee you that I’ll be able to provoke you into some stupid fucking argument about absolute minutiae, all for my entertainment. Of course, you don’t really know what’s going on, because I might be saying this just to get you to shut the fuck up and stop responding to me with your inanity. Or maybe the previous sentence is bullshit and I WANT you to keep responding with your pointless banter. Regardless, I have the power in this relationship, not you.
But what’s really great is that you think you have so much more money than me. You see, I’m humble and modest about money. But I can see that that isn’t how you operate, so I’ll play your little game. I’ve always had money, most of my family is extremely wealthy.
You see, when you’ve been around it for so long, it ain’t no thang. The way you constantly refer to your wealth smacks of someone who grew up in a white trash environment and the concept of having enough money for a random fishing trip every now and then is just WAAAAAYYYYYY too novel to keep to yourself. I live in a house that I own, that I built with my own two hands. I own a $3 million house on Western Drive in Santa Cruz. I also own a house in the Lake Almanor Country Club in Plumas County and it sits on a beautiful golf course. I own an undeveloped 2-acre lot on the Bailey Creek Golf Course up there as well. And I own a condo in downtown Los Altos, California that my grandmother lives in. I also own commercial real estate all over Santa Clara County. Oh yeah, I’ve got a boat also, which I’m taking up to Lake Almanor this weekend to do some waterskiing in my new wetsuit. So I’ve got all the shit you have, and most likely more. But, except for this one departure from form, I don’t talk about that shit. It isn’t what defines me, but clearly it’s what defines you. Good for you.
By the way, it just occurred to me that you probably don’t know what “inanity” means, so I included a link to its definition below. It’s okay, I’ve come across a couple words on here that I didn’t recognize also.

This whole post stinks of defensive bs. FWIW my family plays in oil on an international level you wouldn’t believe. I personally don’t care much for veiled pretention but it looks like your cat is out of the bag… So who is stringing who? You are a sad sack. As far as definition, it is a part of who I am for sure. I ain’t ashamed to admit it. Personally I keep my charity and general good deeds private. It means more. But money is for nothin’ and chicks are for free… You’re a little bitch.
