I'm an Anarchist, plane and simple. Too bad there are murders and others in similear catagories that force me to not act in any way on those beliefs. We gotta have police, we gotta have defense (cause not everyone is christian or at least not a religion that is pacifist as a second choice. All those killing in the name of Jesus are not christian despite what they claim)

There are a few other issues like the above that cloud my thinking too. Things like why can't everyone be nice. Why can't everyone pick perfect spouses to live with for life, and not have kids until they can support them. Lots of other things too, which in themselves are not overly bad, but when you follow them out, suddenly I either have to let someone starve to death/suffer too much (a little suffering is normal for everyone) and suddenly I have to agree to a little welfare just to stop, and then where does it end? (But if your a healthy adult who expects to get social security after it is bankrupt, don't expect sympathy from me, anyone who ran the numbers could see that the system couldn't work year ago, so if you belive the liers/polititians and didn't create your own way it is your own fault.

Nothing is simple. I am an Anarchist, but there are issues that prevent me from acting on my beliefs. I guess thats why I never voted libratarian, even though they are closest to anarchist.
