Reply #25: Left-wing (AKA real) libertarian. [View All]

[Odin2005]

My own political views are complex, they are a mix of non-Marxist socialsm (Capitalism is an inheirently flawed system since it is based on investors stealing the wealth created by workers), libertarianism (I am against the nanny state, the government shouldn't interfere with people's private lives), and Burkean conservativism (revolutions lead by ideologues are generally bad because the ideologues invariably become totalitarians, too fast of change is also a bad thing because it risks causing a backlash that makes things worse then they were before).

I vote Dem because as long as we are stuck with a 2-party system us socialists can only influence national politics by influencing the part platform and by ratting out the DLCers.
