Welcome

You've found edgewood libertarianism. I've decided to start blogging since I'm sure everyone else on the planet is now doing so. I was the last one I know to get a pager; the last to get a cell phone; and surely, the last to blog. So... what does a guy in Edgewood, New Mexico who works at home sit around thinking about? The usual libertarian principles: life, liberty, personal responsibility, free-markets... nothing new to a libertarian dominated internet culture. However, libertarianism is, as it is in most places, unheard of or misunderstood by most in this rural town 20 miles east of Albuquerque. Even those that subscribe to libertarian principles and could talk all day about this issue or that issue, look confused at the notion that there exists a philosophy, even a political party that represented people just like them. So, here I am... the lone card carrying Libertarian in Edgewood. Oh, I'm sure there are a few others and maybe someday I'll actually meet one. Until then, my musings will appear here.
