      +Joshua Phillips I don't, going far in politics is at the bottom of the list of what this guy could achieve in his life.... If anything, be the voice to inspire the next to take his place and quickly, we need more brilliant minds in the real world, not in congress...

      @@hostarepairman economists dont know anything about the stock market... economics is the study of the use of scarce resources with alternative uses. Most government programs have the wrong incentives, leading ppl's situations to be just as bad as before or worse. Economics is a social science so we study human behavior, not stock market. Idk why you think economists leech except for those fake ones in the media.

    He isn’t saying anything groundbreaking or revolutionary, the sad thing is people think he is. As much as Thomas Massie says he loves freedom, he still buys into the idea that government can be changed from the inside.

    Massie seems good (You can tell that I'm very distrusting these days..) but his stories of what goes on in D.C. while unsurprising are still incredibly nauseating.

    It seems to me that most people, including libertarians, mainly care about religion versus abortion. A pro-life libertarian would vote for a pro-life socialist over a pro-choice libertarian and a pro-choice libertarian would vote for a pro-choice fascist over a pro-life libertarian. "Oh but there's no such thing as a .... yada yada yada." Same old same old.
