This summer I am interning at the Public Policy Foundation of West Virginia through my participation in a Washington, DC based fellowship program. Through this opportunity, I will be learning about public policy research and analysis while simultaneously furthering my knowledge of the central tenets of classical liberalism.
While I am in many respects a libertarian (note the small "l"), I am the first to admit that I have a long way to go in this pursuit of happiness (read:knowledge), and it is for this reason that I ask any other individuals generally interested in limited government and free markets to accompany me on this pursuit. As I read books on philosophy, political science, history, economics, and literature, I will post responses, summaries, and relevant present-day applications and disputes. As I come across various pieces of absurd legislation and commentaries, I will perform a similar function. Moreover, as my research gets underway and I begin writing more comprehensive works, I will post them here in abstract form or in their entirety. And lastly, should I come across anything of note in the realm of music or other venues of pop culture I may be inclined to opine there as well.
Thankfully (or hopefully as it may be), all posts following this inaugural will be far more interesting and engaging. I encourage people to post often, and while I may monitor obscene or irrelevant comments, the more challenging the response the better.
