Description

I'm an 18 year old Aristotelian liberal/libertarian, heavily influenced by Ayn Rand. I am currently a high school student at a public school, where I don't learn anything. In my spare time, I study Austrian economics, libertarian political theory, and Aristotelian, Randian, and neo-Aristotelian philosophy, in addition to playing Halo 3 and reading sf, fantasy, and horror.
