What I like about Libertarian views is that they are intended to protect personal freedom and limit government encroachment. There are advantages and disadvantages to that.
I would like to talk about this, but I'm going to have to wait a little while. My kids have music lessons this afternoon, and then I have to go buy my husband a birthday gift - he's turning 40 tomorrow. He really already received his *big gift* (a motorcycle), but I think he'll be disappointed if we don't celebrate at least a little bit tomorrow.  |
That's how I am. I didn't sit in an economic theory class, spend 10 years dissecting all the models and decide which one would work best. The more I heard from Libertarians, the more is resonated with what I perceived was the right approach of government.
I may be further along that road than you -- because like other Libertarians, I also am comfortable taking up social positions that I think better support smaller government as well.
