I don't think Joss Whedon had a political agenda. Anything can be interpreted any way that anybody wants. Yeah, Joss Whedon does like to introduce ideas to us, but I really don't think that he is trying to say anything specific about our government.



He's a self-Confessed Libertarian, When you can get a straight answer out of him anyway ;) But I've also heard people say he said he was a Democrat, a Republican and a Constitutionalist.. all I've ever PERSONALLY witnessed was the Libertarian statement... And AS a libertarian, I see it through that lense, and the movie/series sticks to the libertarian Ideals pretty closely (Well, Except for the killin and robbin ;)

Once you see enough of a person to know their political leanings (Like me), you can also see those "Leanings" in their work/statements, and even work ethic.. I treat my employess the same way I live, What they do is none of my business as long as they aren't on MY clock doing it, and it doesn't affect anyone else in a negative way.

Your polical/religious/etc ideals can't help but spill over into your work/leadership.. at least I can't seem to keep it from happening ;)

Um, where did that come from?

I think that marxism is a wonderful idea on paper and would love to see it work. However, I also think that marxism goes against human nature and will never work in real life unless there are some HUGE changes in the way people act.

But no, I have never been a member of any communist party and I really can't see that ever happening.
