I thought you were about as right as wings come?

I do agree completely, though I feel it's more than just us libertarians that feel that way.

why do you call me right wing?

[tiedye]

I had thought you were conservative. I suppose I was mistaken.

[azazel]

you can be conservative and libertarian at the same time.

just read my thread about private cities.

It's just nice to actually see once in awhile.

uhhh

what?

4?

[decypher]

artists should get paid for their intellectual property but works should be free for "fair-dealing" purposes. The problem i have with intellectual property is when corporations hold these rights far after the artist dies. It becomes an oligarchy.

I didn't read that thread title properly (it's rather atrocious, after all), but I'm far too tired to edit my post with full coherence right now. Stay tuned... same bat time, same bat channel.

Um, Ron Paul is the definition of conservative-libertarian, almost to an extremist level.

A core belief of libertarianisms is the centrality of property rights, therefore in a libertarian society intellectual property would be strongly protected. Your statement is the exact opposite of what would occur within a libertarian society.

libertarianism is an extremist ideology, one requires an evangelical belief in the efficiency and rationality of freemarkets, when in reality markets are never rational and rarely entirely efficient.

um, we don't believe in 'intellectual' property.

So if I eat your brain, I then have the rights to your intellectual property in a librarian society ?

I don't know who that is. All I comprehend when I think of the term 'conservative-libertarian' is "freedom of choice and liberty so long as it doesn't interfere with the freedom of choice and liberty of anyone else... unless it's radical or just plain weird."

I'm probably wrong, but then again I've yet to come across a political opinion that isn't.

i'd pay for anyone who reinterpretes a classical song, which means I owe the pachelbel's canon rock player some money, but i am done with paying for a pop album selling me consumerism while proving that being mentally unstable sells (especially if the artist is in total denial).

I will pay for local bands though. Heck, most concert music I listen to as part of my job.

IMHO music that is free of lyrics is more liberating than rap.
