I would describe myself as an independent most aligned with libertarian ideals. Never again will I make the mistake of identifying with a political movement. The major reason being that all institutions are eventually infiltrated by some degree of corruption. This is one of many fundamental flaws in politics.
Rate of corruption is directly proportional to size. The larger the institution, the more people its leader(s) control(s). The more people its leadership controls, the more influence it has. And the more influence a leadership body has, the more susceptible it is to being corrupted by its own power.
For this reason, I personally feel that pledging support to any political party is only adding to the problem.
Any thoughts?
