Hey everybody, I'm Nick Walker. I'm 22 and I go to Illinois State University. I'm graduating with a BA in English Studies this year and am looking into grad school.
I mean this to be a political blog, but it'll probably just whatever's striking my fancy that day, be it what I'm reading, my writing, random thoughts, stuff like that.
My politics don't really fit into any one group, as I'm sure yours don't either, dear reader. I'm sure you'll be able to tease them out. I encourage trolls, but only if they have rational arguments. I love debating, and I can be convinced of views other than my own if you make a good enough point.
Suffice to say, I believe in well-regulated free marketism. Good luck figuring that one out. A lot of my other views are pretty controversial too. A lot of what we think of as "right" and "good" just because it's culturally significant is actually detrimental to society. More on this in posts to come.
Here's a link to another blog, where I've been arguing against libertarians. It started on Facebook, and has jumped to this blog, run by a friend-of-a-friend from Elgin.

Again, if you think I am wrong for a rational, well-defended reason, you can convince me. Please do. Don't half-ass it though.
