Dick Rider battles more than just government

Local Libertarian gadfly bucks misconceptions, too Is Big Bird a collectivist?

In the early 1980s, a San Diego dentist learned his financial planner, Dick Rider, was a Libertarian.

"Oh no," Dr. Ed Lipped thought. "I'm going to one of Lyndon LaRouche's people."

Ah, the plight of Dick Rider.

Misaligned with the Peace and Freedom faction. Lumped together with the liberation movement. Blasted as both right-winger and leftist liberal.

Befuddled folks looking for the head of the "librarians" have even contacted Rider.
