Still Mad About CD Prices<p>I have a friend who is pretty much a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Republican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Republican</span></a> by default (i.e., he claims to be apolitical but only consistently avoids political topics when the Republican position is the status quo; he will comment on other issues). He might be trying out a new "open mindedness" thing, though, and he once even claimed to be "more or less an <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Anarchist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Anarchist</span></a>" at heart.</p><p>I'm making a list of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/questions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>questions</span></a> to ask him about <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/anarchy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>anarchy</span></a>.
