I do respect libertarian tenets but I have the same reservations with I do with any other -Ism. Unadulterated ideology is never a solution or governing philosophy. Most hardcore Libertarians I know are uniformly good people but formulaic in their beliefs. Not every problem in the world is some equation. All that said I am a big fan of Rand Paul and wish we had more of him.



The biggest problem with the Libertarian party is the the people in the party running for office. It’s the same nut jobs as in the Democrat and Republican part without the same backing as those two. It’s what all these politicians would look like if we forced them out of parties, supreme nutjob douchebags we wouldn’t want operating our country.

My mostly strong libertarian ideology falls apart in some areas. And if you don’t accept the entire philosophy (some of which is crazy or impractical), you are dismissed as another Democrat or Republican. Can’t be a “grocery cart” libertarian in some people’s eyes.

The concept of BLM, setting aside virtue signaling, was a simple message that need not be controversial then it was abruptly stolen.


Can you provide any sort of documentation for this?

One thing this entire thread has showed me is people don't know the difference between the Libertarian party and libertarians.

What exactly do you think is going to happen with your taxes when Biden rolls back Trump's tax cuts? You think they are magically going to stay the same or go down?

Disappointed in the protestors for not holding a mock court. The Viking could have given a State of the Union address for his 20 minutes in power.

The other problem is that the rational strategy even if you would best identify as Libertarian is to vote left/right at the end of the day (whichever candidate is least authoritarian). This leaves solely the "There should literally be zero laws" libertarians left to fight come election time and the candidates have to appeal to that.

A larger party that becomes like the other major parties (i.e. coalitions of several different wings) would resolve that.

Damn, one of the baws who died is reported to have been from my town. Never heard of his name before, though.

This what we need to break up the DC stalemate that has only enriched the elite party ruling class.
