If, in the year 2010, someone asked you to conjure an image of the average libertarian, there’s a good chance you’d envision former Texas Rep. Ron Paul, who was, for decades, the ideology’s most famous representative. You might also think of someone entirely fictional: Ron Swanson. Grumpy, mustachioed, and obsessively fearful of government overreach, Swanson […] Read more ›
