It's Constitution Day! Don't expect our dear presidential candidates (McCain and Obama) to tell you this, though. They're too busy fucking over the Constitution with their promised policies. I, however, think the Constitution is super awesome. I'm aware that I'm probably the only libertarian with radical tendencies among my circle of friends on LJ (or anywhere else on the 'net, for that matter). I avoid pushing my political beliefs on my flist most of the time, so I figured you could handle it for one day. And this is a perfecto day for it, seeing as how we're being screwed over by the government bailouts of stupid companies that aren't aware of (and don't care) how true capitalism works. Then again, we're most certainly not living in a capitalist society. Oh, how I wish we were...
Lemme put a lid on the ranting and get to the linkage. This is as much for my future reference as anything else. I know many of you are very set in your ways when it comes to politics, and I don't expect to change your mind. Though, I do think I'm right, and my way is the most logical way. You'll probably have a revelation in your old age and realize that Amanda was right all along, and it's really too bad no one listened to her or we wouldn't all be eating cat food (or possibly soylent green). Eating people is not cool, you guys.
Break the Matrix - This came out of the grassroots area of Ron Paul's campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. Of course, Dr. Paul didn't stand a chance since all the neo-conservative Republicans hate him. However, the website and revolution behind it is great. It's about taking back the media and getting the third parties' voices heard through the Republocrat nonsense.
Libertarian Party - Though I am a libertarian, I am not a member of the Libertarian Party. I've yet to pay the yearly dues and get a pretty card in the mail. I am, however, registered as an independent. The LP website has wonderful and clear-cut information on their stance on issues. There is also a fantastic press release by Bob Barr regarding the bailouts that have happened recently. Yay, Bob.
Mises Institute - This is something that is near and dear to my heart. I am consistently in awe of the intelligent and logical and innovative thinkers that come out of the Austrian Economics school. I also find it beyond frustrating that no one will listen to what Austrian Economics is about and how it could fix all our current economic problems. The Mises Institute publishes top-notch books as low prices, and they offer many of these books for free download on their website. Your brain will love you.
