"Hobbits? I love hobbits -- nice furry feet they have..."
I
read alot -- through books, magazines, and the internet (besides my
academic reading -- oy vey!). I also like movies and music. In fact, I
like almost all art, but I do not like post modern shit-in-a-can,
or stuff that takes 6 months to understand (reference point: I consider Shakespeare
to be brilliant the first time around...). On second thought,
the shit-in-a-can stuff (and Warhol-type stuff) does demonstrate
the degree of idiocy around us...
Favorite Funny Stuff
Politics:
I am a libertarian who thinks that government can be useful to
coordinate the solution to externality problems. (I oppose monopoly and
abuse of power in BOTH the private and public sector.) I also like
anarchy, using the proper definition of unguided autonomy -- what Hayek
called "spontaneous order" and Smith called the
"Invisible Hand" Read
this.
