You seem to know all about Libertarians, so make your own choice.
I'm not a Libertarians because I like the people. You are reading into what I'm saying and making up all sorts of bologna (of course). The ideas I've heard, I've liked. The debates Ive heard, their position resonated with me more. And truly, with fiscal policy, Libertarians are conservatives. They tend to agree on many of the same issues -- this is why candidates like Ron Paul were able to run on the GOP platform for Prez. The audience wouldn't consider all his ideas completely foreign.
Where I differ from the ideal libertarians is that I don't believe a self-managed economy can work today. It's not practical. This is where Ayn Rand would take issue with me... but she's stuck in ideal world and those ideas don't meet reality so cleanly.

Who is Ayn Rand?
Can you describe a libertarian economic position or not?

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.

Have you been told what Ron Paul considered his economic foundation?
