    I deliberately avoided stating my political position, primarily because I'm in a state of flux at the moment, between classical liberals like Hayek and anti-egalitarians like Junger and Evola. I'm anti-Marxist but unsure as to which method is better, centralized anti-egalitarian (Chinese, Singaporean corporativist model) or the decentralized one. Trouble deciding between the nation or the corporation, so to speak. Pretty anti-egalitarian at my core, which doesn't sit well with most people in a Liberal world.

    I'm also waiting for this economic crisis to proceed to see which school of economic thought has been right, leaning towards the Chicago school explanation at the moment. Ever since I read the calculation problem wrt resource allocation, I've always tended towards leaning to the Austrians.

    Sadly "High Tower" left his mortal coils in 2011 but I am sure his legacy will last for a long time.

    Greetings, I am Interlude. I am native Virginian and a bit of a historian. The mainstream news/media has failed our citizens so now I seek multiple perspectives on current events. Even the local news broadcast is a waste of time as it resembles TMZ.

    I look forward to reading this board and hope to gain unique insight to International affairs.
