2.8 is one I support - whole heartedly. Abolish public education. In it’s present form people that send their kids to public school, any public school are guilty of child abuse

I would also be somewhat of an isolationist though a muscle bound one - I want a powerful military to preserve the nation. Other places can live or die on their own.

But yeah, the Libertarians are pretty out there in a lot of ways

What make this funny is a lot of the #NeverTrump guys don’t like him because he isn’t pure enough, not a “Constitutional conservative” (Whatever that means). They think he is to liberal and then they run to this party?

The Libertarians lost me several years ago.

One of the basic tenets of the Libertarian Party is the non-initiation of force against others. No individual or group has a natural right to commit aggression on the equal rights of another, initiating violence against another individual or legitimately owned property of another.

The greatest failure of the Libertarian Party was after 9/11 a deep schism built between those in the Libertarian Party that saw attacks by Islam as wanton initiation of force (thus requiring a principled retaliation response), and those that believed the use of force by Islam was justified retaliation for initial transgressions by the the US (Paulists, etc.).

This fiasco illustrates that the Libertarian Party has skimmed members from Liberals and Conservatives with cleverly worded statements such as, "let peaceful people cross borders freely." The Libertarian that came from a Conservative background will wake up and realize that peaceful individuals can become a stampede, destabilizing the economy, and a peaceful person can turn violent without any warning.
