Mark first voted Libertarian in 1992. His philosophy has been (small "l") libertarian ever since, but he actually joined the party at the national and state level in early 2021. He made the realization that people need to become active in politics or government will continue to grow and become more coercive while nobody is paying attention. In the past couple years government has become noticeably more oppressive under the establishment parties. Now is the time to stand up, as we might not be able to so later!
