Welcome to my new blog, "Random Smack from Oz." Here I will be discussing random political and social issues that I find of interest. I welcome dissenting opinions, as I try to be open-minded and consider all sides to an issue. We do not have to always agree. It is my belief that healthy debate of the issues (when done in a respectable manner) is important in our efforts to improve our tomorrow.
In the beginning of my adult life I was a registered Democrat. I grew up in a family of Democrats. My parents are very loyal Democrats that to this day and do not trust anything the Republican's say. As I have aged and matured into my own being, I find that neither party "talks to me" directly per se.
If asked, I believe that I am a Fiscal Conservative, but lean towards being a Social Liberal. The older I get I find myself agreeing more with Libertarian ideals in that I want the Government to stay out of my life as much as possible. But I don't subscribe to all of the Libertarian positions either.
So with that... I hope that you enjoy reading my blog. Whether you agree or disagree with me, I hope that you will consider my view point while evaluating your own position on a particular issue.
