All of the lines in the "in this house we believe" frames are principles of libertarianism. When I tell people I'm a libertarian, and they say it's an offshoot of Republicanism, I correct them. I tell them that Democrats and Republicans have much more in common with each other than either D's or R's have with libertarians. Neither D's nor R's like hearing that particular truth.

My problem with libertarianism was how there was a time in universities when the people who belonged to the libertarian club were usually the same exact people who belonged to the club that wanted to legalize marijuana and vice versa. The only reason they were "libertarian" was that they wanted to smoke pot and I wonder IF they knew anything else about libertarian philosophy etc ... Now that smoking weed is pretty much decriminalized, I wonder IF there are any libertarians left in or outside of universities who are not a boomer-gen Xer???

We are happy to shed the people who think libertarianism is only about drug legalization. Of course we don't believe it is a crime to make a bad personal choice, it is about so much more. As above.

I know it's about so much more BUT the above was my observation some years ago - that the people involved at the university level mainly cared about legalizing pot and may not have known or cared much about all the other stuff... also, the latest libertarian convention sounded like a train wreck or not ready for prime time with all sorts of shenanigans but again, have not paid much attention to it... Reason Mag was always good but haven't looked at it in awhile...

The Libertarian party is no longer libertarian; it has been infiltrated with statists. I am not a member of the Libertarian party; I am a libertarian. We believe in all the things on the "in this house we believe" memes. Every last one. You won't find any real libertarianism in the misnamed Libertarian party, but you will on lewrockwell.com and among the writings of Madison and Jefferson.

The idea that drug legalization is the main focus of libertarianism is a lie spread by D's and R's who realize that if people really understood libertarianism, that would be it for the ruling 2-headed uniparty.

going to shop around there must be Tshirts with your memes ! or do you make them?

If there is no copyright or if its not a cartoon, I guess any t-shirt maker could put a design etc on a t-shirt...

T-shirts can be made at home. (I have the world's only Boutros Boutros-Ghali t-shirt.)

Office Max will sell you some iron-on thingies the size of a piece of printer paper. Put it in your printer, print whatever image you want onto it (remember to reverse the image before printing), and then iron it onto the shirt. If I can do it, anyone can.

How many washes will it last?

thanks ! Usually these prints start to wash off after about 10 washes. The ones I have from Sharyl Attkisson lasted about 14, 15. Now the images are blurred, but their quality is good so I will wear them even after you can no longer see what it is !
