    I may have disagreed with Ron on almost all things policy, but at least the man had a spine and stood up for his values with consistency. Rand does not.

      Ron Paul was one of the people trying to incorporate Rothbard’s neo-confederate bullshit into libertarianism. Because nothing’s more libertarian than Jim Crow or outright slavery, right?

      Not that libertarianism itself is much more than what some people think economics is, if they barely made it through the 101 course at a mediocre college.

      Values… Rooted in stupidity. His entire health care position was based on “well it used to be affordable for the poors, so its obviously medicare thats the problem”.

      Ron Paul is a dipshit of the highest caliber.

      But yes, I agree entirely that Rand has absolutely zero values. He’s also a top tier dipshit though.
