Libertarians are generally supportive of Free Market principles. The pragmatic side of me realizes the need, given our economic size and climate, for minimum regulation and oversight.

In general:

1) We support lower spending and smaller government
2) Lower taxes -- which is all connected to #1. There are many ideas: from fair tax, overall lower taxes connected to less spending, and even some radical ideas about getting rid of the IRS (which I'm not personally open to at this point -- that's a more idealistic Libertarian).
3) Libertarians are typically anti-Kensey economics.... having much faith in the way the market corrects itself.

Can you define a Kensey economist using your own words without google?
Can you name one?
