Weirdly enough I did this years ago when I didn't know there were such
things as libertarians and it turned out I'd been one the whole time.

Of course in my case this was accurate: I'd been at odds with the left
for years over their tendency to tell people what to do wity their money
(and purloin it for such purposes) and the right for telling people what
to do with their bodies, their social life, and damn near everything but
their money.

Mike (Ditto: you don't need to be a Rand fan to be a libertarian, you
just need to think that maybe people know what's best for their lives
more than the state does).
