Romantic Realist, art-speak for libertarian

For a long time now I've held the misperception that libertarians exclusively study the sciences and other "rational" fields of study. This was an easy mistake to make, as I was one of those in a "rational" field of study, and I was the only libertarian I knew. However, the more I meet, the more I learn about the diversity of the libertarian crowd. Happily, they extend even into the arts. Some of you may know that Ms. Rand wrote a book called "The Romantic Manifesto" (which I have not read); well, it seems that, either plenty of other artists read it, or libertarian-artist types came to the same conclusion independently, as there's a whole community of artists that are self-taught and anti-establishment. Enjoy!
