What drives your political thinking?

**CaveDog** · 11-12-2019, 11:49 AM

I’m not looking for critiques of other’s thinking, debates and such. The challenge here is to reduce the one thing that most drives your political thinking down to one sentence. I’ll start...

The recognition that some principles transcend human authority.

The idea that humans can accomplish great things if government stays out of their lives.

We are reasoning, social beings but flawed.

People are more important than philosophy.

The idea that I know more of what is best for me than some faceless bureaucrat in Washington.
The idea that I have but one life to live and I want to live it on my terms with rational self interest.
