[Superman]

Over the course of my lifetime I have wished thousands of times, only very briefly each time, that the world seemed as simple to me as it apparently does to folks like Fint and Mule. Then the wish goes immediately away when I realize the real consequence of a viewpoint that exceedingly simple.

I accept the "liberal" tag because to me it means freedom. It means I would not be interested in controlling peoples' behavior. The word itself means that. Liberal. Tolerant. Accepting. Open-minded. Accepting and embracing a WIDE range of lifestyles, religions and other personal choices. I do believe commercial activity needs to be regulated. Not people. Businesses.

Conservatives, according to my view, see it differently. They have this notion that deregulating business would be a smart idea. And regulating people is a good idea.

And then there are the libertarians, who appear to be wishing for a lawless free-for-all.
