      +Joshua Phillips I don't, going far in politics is at the bottom of the list of what this guy could achieve in his life.... If anything, be the voice to inspire the next to take his place and quickly, we need more brilliant minds in the real world, not in congress...

      @@hostarepairman economists dont know anything about the stock market... economics is the study of the use of scarce resources with alternative uses. Most government programs have the wrong incentives, leading ppl's situations to be just as bad as before or worse. Economics is a social science so we study human behavior, not stock market. Idk why you think economists leech except for those fake ones in the media.

    He isn’t saying anything groundbreaking or revolutionary, the sad thing is people think he is. As much as Thomas Massie says he loves freedom, he still buys into the idea that government can be changed from the inside.

    He is in the crunchy conservative zone, but after a strong cup of coffee a constitutional libertarian perhaps. A healthy likable mindset among the midst of a heavy political power struggle between factions that choose not to observe the emerging 21st century cross section.

    It seems to me that most people, including libertarians, mainly care about religion versus abortion. A pro-life libertarian would vote for a pro-life socialist over a pro-choice libertarian and a pro-choice libertarian would vote for a pro-choice fascist over a pro-life libertarian. "Oh but there's no such thing as a .... yada yada yada." Same old same old.

    Only one beef: Don't use C++. Not even once. Whatever it is you are building, I don't care, use Go or something.....just for the love of God don't muck with C++.... For me personally, the only thing scarier than your program segfaulting and silently failing is when your program finally works and you have to ask yourself "Why? Wait...that worked?"....

    Massie seems good (You can tell that I'm very distrusting these days..) but his stories of what goes on in D.C. while unsurprising are still incredibly nauseating.
