Libertarianism In Firefly

I never really looked all that deeply at the politics espoused in Firefly, but Sara Hinson did. She concludes that Firefly is advancing a very libertarian worldview, and I agree to a certain extent. What I can say is that now I want to rewatch the TV series in advance of the upcoming movie.

And maybe get the comics, being the fanboy that I am....
