"It's about how much freedom you can take away from somebody before they either fold or fight," Whedon says. "It's about the right to be wrong and the nature of human beings, that they need the freedom to be wrong. That they cannot be made to be better or perfect."--Joss Whedon on Serenity

I read this and thought - hey, I thought Joss said he wasn't a libertarian?? :-) I am, and I've been saying stuff like that for years!

Seriously, I think it's one of the most important and overlooked ideas today. If only more people believed it, we'd all be better off! (now isn't THAT ironic).

The Serenity/Firefly take on government as meddlers thing struck a BIG cord with me. Of course, I have had run-ins with the regional building department, and pay quarterly taxes...so you can guess how I feel about the whole thing :)

Any yes, people have the right to be wrong...make mistakes...do something different and unique without having to have forms filed in triplicate and get pre-authorization.
