Not to be confused with "Municipal Bands" which I unequivocally enjoy...
My co-worker and friend Brian and I had a great conversation last night over dinner, and the topic came up of food bans (like Chicago's foie gras ban) and also, libertarianism. I shared with him my thoughts on the two subjects (for the record, you can read them here, a recent post on growing external government and here on libertarianism).
The tension between license and liberty in a dependent society is a fascinating one for me. While my position may seem inconsistent upon only a superficial analysis, one would quickly see that self-government is the point on which my position hinges.
The American Federalist Blog focuses on the uniqueness and exceptionalism of the United States, the superior nature of our form of government, and the importance of both Americanism and Federalism to the renewal of this Republic. Among other things.
As always, AFB is looking both lovely and intellegent. :)
ReplyDeleteShame work/family related insanity kept me away from blogging the last few months... Seems I've got a lot of back reading to do!
Don't know when I'm going to fit my homework in to the rest of my schedule, but a girl can try. ;)
BTW, Mr. Morris has a subscription option on his blog... And chance AFB is getting one any time soon??
ReplyDeleteHey Sebo,
ReplyDeleteYou're going to make a feller blush with that kind of talk, but thanks. I'll have to stop by your place and see if there's anything new.
(sheepishly) Yeah, I know, that's a darn good idea Morris had, and I suppose it's about time I ask him to show me how to set one of those up here.
Nice to hear from you again, hope all's well...
