You mean the elitist liberal scum from the cities wouldn't spend their vacation time in the country anymore? What a shame.

Anyone who dreams of a utopia is living in a false reality. How would public use things be funded with no public funds? Why would there be countries or even states if we are all functioning in a Me Society?

7. No more immigration controls. People from all over the world would be as free to travel to the United States to visit, tour, work, invest, and open businesses as people are free to travel domestically within the United States.

I thought I was more of a libertarian than republican but if this is how they really think than I am not one at all.

We need some of the things mentioned as no more in that blog.

"Libertarian" is not a synonym for "Independent".

Its is however a synonym for "Trojan-Horse Republican".

You are probably more of a moderate like many Americans.

I think so, but in national elections, it's all about the money for me. States mainly handle social issues so I don't get riled up by them nor do I listen too hard to what is said about them unless it's going to affect our pockets.

Of course to the far right you are a liberal, Marxist, communist.

The problem is that we never get a choice. I am mostly Libertarian, but I do not accept the open borders policy as long as third world backwaters exist. As for "services" I believe most of them would be covered by private investment or by voluntary subscription. The powers that be will always resist Libertarian ideals because they know that once they took hold, the current system backed by violence would fail.
