I'm a liberal only so far as it makes sense. I believe in banning or restricting things that are empirically shown to be harmful to society, I believe in staying out of personal lives as much as is practical, and I support prostitution and the legalization of many drugs because it's practical for the free market to have them (taxed). it happens that my 'why? prove it. show me the research' approach comes out being pretty liberal in many cases.

I am not however loyal to any party, and I see no use for them. I would like to abolish all parties, and ban outlets from calling themselves news if they don't meet a suitable standard of accuracy and fairness. I think educational standards should be determined at a national level based solely on facts, and that anyone who cites their faith as a major influence on how they would govern should be ineligible for office.

Basically I want to take emotion and religion out of the law, educate everyone properly, make leaders back their positions at a university level, and see how things shake out from there.
