What kind of libertarian advocates increasing our already hefty tax burden? In this case, a new tax called a carbon tax. Apparently so-called libertarians over at Reason Online.
Jonathan Rauch and Ronald Bailey both appear to be advocating a carbon tax to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Bailey appears to advocate a cap and trade system as well. Not what I would call free market environmentalism. It’s not very libertarian in my book either.

My Results:
The Artist.
Truly unique looking. Striking features. Usually light eyes and red or brown hair. Looks to be a very interesting and creative person. (Famous people who resemble this type: Nicole Kidman, Natalie Portman, Marcia Cross, Uma Thurman, Rachel Weisz, Maggie Gyllenhaal)

Actually, I think my type would combine this one with the type the quiz calls The Siren, because I’d add black hair too. And medium – dark skin. Exotic looks. Such a combined type would include my wife.

Update: Yup, I took the quiz again with I think only one change in my answers and got The Siren.
My Results:
The Siren
Hot. Exotic looking. Usually has one prominent feature. Most commonly has medium – dark skin and hair. (Famous women who resemble this type: Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek, Eva Longoria, Eva Mendes, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry)

Although not listed in either, Adriana Lima in my opinion could be listed in both categories although perhaps more strongly in The Siren.
In a previous post, I discussed John C. Wright’s Golden Age science fiction trilogy.
Well, just today on his LiveJournal blog he claims to be a closet anarchist!
I’m not entirely certain he wasn’t just making a joke though. Decide for yourself:
“My local library interviewed me, and posted the result here for all and sundry to hear. The government people were very nice, and I am sure they did not know I am a closet anarchist. (That is, I believe in lawlessness for wardrobes.)”
Update (03/22/07): Well, this recent post by Wright answers that question. Definitely not an anarchist. Ah well, it was a fun thought while it lasted. ;o)
