... can't seem to break it.

I think nearly everyone is that way to SOME extent, but the stubborn attitudes of some people blows my mind.

I was a Libertarian moron in high school (a long time ago), but further education and historical facts caused me to toss that political ideology into the garbage! If I was a sociopath, which I'm not, maybe I would've still held onto Libertarian ideas as well?
