Gun Control

I do not own guns. I do not know if I ever will. If I ever bought one, it would be the Garand from World War II because I liked it from Call of Duty. Barack Obama bans the sales of "semi-automatics." I believe this is because he knows little about guns. He probably thinks semi-automatics are a lot more like AK-47s and M-16s than a Garand or a Colt 45. Someone needs to show him the Wiki page of guns.

John McCain is pro-gun control as his record shows. He chose Palin to hide that because he was tied in a lot of red states or even losing on some polls. If Obama learns about semi-automatic guns before the election, he will easily defeat McCain.

Montana, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, would all be on his side if Obama learns more about guns. This is very important.

And here is a video of Obama on video games.

The Clintons loved to ban video games, especially Hillary.

This is a big issue, and Obama is the only pro-game, or not-anti-game candidate.

He may say things like "put the games away" but he is talking to PARENTS.

He's saying what Libertarians and all gamers have been saying for a long time. Put the games away. And he's not talking about educational games. I'm sure he'd like learning games. He's saying kids are spending too much time watching TV and playing video/computer games that it hurts their grades, and parents need to watch what their kids are doing.

On the video, he doesn't pretend he knows about the game. He uses the phrase "goo gobs of money." Which is technically true. He doesn't make up lies like kids can learn how to steal a car. If kids really tried to imitate GTA games they would run out in the middle of a street because cars get stuck trying to drive past you. If the kid didn't die, he'd try to open the door and throw the driver out.

Obama grew up playing games. Not the games we played, but he was born in fucking 1961. My dad was born in 1950, and I think he played Atari/Pong.

Obama was born in 1961. Assuming he played games until he was 20, he would have seen many of the early system. 30, he'd have seen Nintendo and the birth of the SNES.

Obama is the Gamer's choice. He takes the Libertarian position on a very important issue. Never before has a major candidate told parents "raise your kids, the government can't do it for you."

Any TRUE Libertarian who votes for John McCain is not a Libertarian.

They are just a Republican who has been told Obama will raise their taxes because he is a Marxist.

And on Economics:

You know who Adam Smith would pick? Obama.

Adam Smith talks about the invisible hand directing money to where it is needed thus the government should not interfere. But the government should not also encourage loopholes in the tax system that encourage companies to move elsewhere. A lot of neoliberal economists love to use a sentence out of Adam Smith to say he is for the way things are.

We are back at Mercantillism, what Smith rallied against. Adam Smith would vote Obama. Corporate tax loopholes are the visible hand of special interests. Obama knows his economics. McCain, as well know, does not.

Keynes would do, but Keynes and Smith, if they had known each other would both be against communism.

For those of you who think Keynes = Communist, Keynes is the last thing communism wanted. He told capitalists that they could adjust to conditions. Communists would say that is the capitalists bribing the poor to not revolt.

His theories did work for a while. I think it was more Richard Nixon abusing Keynesian theory and completely fucking it up that make it look bad. Price freezes on all goods were not something Keynes wanted.

Any sane person who has taken any advanced economic class and Economic History/econmic thought will realize Obama is the best candidate. I've never heard a major candidate actually reference Adam Smith before. Hopefully the American people respect that. I certainly do!

The Libertarianism Livejournal group does not represent Libertarianism, but a few people who want to argue beastiality and the right for a private person to own nuclear weapons.

Ron Paul may be a nutcase, but a lot of his supporters did not agree with all he says, and are going to Obama. They aren't going to fall for his "vote for any third party" trick.
