TL;DR
I believe in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness–i.e., a good life in all its aspects.
I am dedicated to the proposition that all of us are created equal and endowed with inalienable rights.
I believe that individuals, freely associating with one another is the primary requirement for humanity’s quest to solve the problems of today, tomorrow and until the end of time.
