kentforliberty.com | Principles, for most people, seem to be something you try on and wear for a while, then toss aside and try on something else. Like trying on a hat.

I guess there’s some point to that. If you try on some principles that are uncomfortable and don’t fit– or are dangerous– then, by all means, discard them and look for something better.

For most people, principles seem like an annoyance. They just get in the way of doing what they want to do. Those principles then get swapped out for some other, less consistent “principles” that leave room for those things they want to feel OK about doing.

That’s how people can pretend to be principled while archating. It’s how you end up with cops and politicians lecturing better people about principles.
