One of the things that’s happened to me in the past five or six years is a move from being a liberal/democrat to a libertarian. Quickly, we’ll address the little “l”.

Where that starts to fall down is in how those goals are reached. The more you try to enforce equality via government policy, the more you restrict freedom and the less we all thrive. Libertarian policies fall well in-line with Austrian Economics as well.
