Description[?]:
| Liberty would like to see Beluzia's technology sector updated. We are opposed to the idea of human cloning for moral, ethical and legal reasons. We'd like to see a bolder internet policy that didn't have government control and for government to openly recognize open and close source software. Lastly we'd like space exploration to be opened up to private companies with the means and ambition to take us beyond the stars. |
