A Undereducated Stab At Identifying My Politics

“Almost assuredly different than yours.” is what my profile on Facebook states, but whenever I’m asked–which is never–I describe myself as a “libertarian federalist.” People should be allowed to govern themselves with as few or as many laws as they like, so long as those laws are as geographically restricted to as narrow a degree as humanly possible. National laws, of which there should be a very few, take precedence over state laws, which take precedence over state laws–after which come the laws of a county, then a town. The vast majority of laws a citizen would be subject to should come at the level of something like a homeowner’s association.

Most people hate their homeowner’s association, so that feels about right.

When I pointed this out to Mr. Mike, he suggested such a place would bear a great deal of resemblance to Neal Stephenson’s Snow Crash.

Which was OK with me.

Update: Throw in a few Anarchy Parks, just for good measure.
