Money beats spam bots, any day. So how did it come to pass that the Net fell in love with a libertarian from Texas?
  • Anonymous, the problem is that libertarians

    aren't coders, their intent is purely destructive. If libertarians had a coherent plan to provide health care, defense, etc., that would be one thing, but if we're going to push the geek analogy, the libertarian plan is this: "I provide you with a bare bones OS and you can hope that you're wealthy/lucky enough to attain the software you need to be productive and achieve your goals. If not, then well, I'm sure you could code it yourself it you'd just work a little harder. Also, if there's a system crash, you're fucked."
