I was looking for the cotter key that holds the two ideals together, and didn't go into much detail on either side because it would detract from the point. There are volumes of information out there written by people with far more talent and research than myself on both sides.<br />check out the <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/paleo-libertarian" rel="nofollow">Google Paleo Libertarian Group</a> if you get a chance. There are some big brains in that room.<br /><br />Wenchypoo, Amen.<br />I am working on the economic freedom, but that is proving to be the most difficult. There are a lot of things I wish I had been enlightened upon 12 years ago that I am paying for today. The "Paleo on a Budget" definitely fits me and my little family. <br /><br />And, I wholeheartedly agree. It takes guts to stand up and break away from the herd. Thank you both for your time and comments.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10509305061945870434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7584010500034423042.post-87866122024613288902011-07-02T06:59:11.114-04:002011-07-02T06:59:11.114-04:00Paleo and Libertarianism have one thing in common:...Paleo and Libertarianism have one thing in common: self-sufficiency. WE take charge of our own health, WE take the time (and our own money) and seek out the best dietary and nutritional practices around, and WE don't need no stinkin' laws to tell us what not to do.<br /><br />What's behind that last one? We aren't trying to function in bodies flooded with carbs and stored sugar. Even the brain gets flooded with carbs and cannot function optimally, leaving the person as dim as a post, relying heavily on electronic means to navigate and communicate, and in need of regulation to keep him/her in line.<br /><br />Question: when the power goes out for an extended period of time (possibly forever one day), what are all these electronic gadget junkies gonna do with themselves? They won't even be able to READ about preparedness or how to do something, because their kindles and smart phones will be dead! We're just one terrorist or hacker attack from this happening now.<br /><br />On the economic front: you don't hear Paleos whining about the price of pasta, bread, meat, coffee, or anything else that has skyrocketed in recent years, because we learned to live without them. This makes us economically free. We are also not likely to be slaves to the coming Obamacare, because we already subscribe to the MyCare plan (which we practice with our diets and exercise).<br /><br />Just having the guts to break away from the "Pyramid People" and do something different is striking a Libertarian note for yourself, even if it doesn't include personal politics.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7584010500034423042.post-9492719415857816282011-07-01T19:46:40.104-04:002011-07-01T19:46:40.104-04:00Here via the Paleo Rodeo...

I'm relatively new to the Paleo scene (on the diet for less than three months), and-- surprise, surprise-- I just so happen to be a Libertarian, broadly speaking. I never realized that there was a connection between the two communities, but it sort of makes sense.Sara Bhttp://www.healthy-meal-plans.netnoreply@blogger.com
