"Libertarian" Gary Johnson Pushes "Free Market" Carbon Tax

The New American ^ | 23 August 2016 | Alex Newman

[VitacoreVision]

In the equivalent of shooting himself in the political foot, Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson announced support for a deeply unpopular tax on emissions of carbon dioxide, or CO2, to stop alleged "climate change."

[faithhopecharity]

Reveals both he’s a communistic political hack AND a damned fool too -— nobody should waste their votes on this guy that’s for sure !

[VitacoreVision]

It appears the Progressive Liberal Democrats have hijacked the Libertarian party.

Libertarian Party nominee Gary Johnson offers Americans an alternative to Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton. But is he a good alternative?

Libertarians’ Pick for VP Is a Globalist Liberal

Conservatives hoping for an alternative to the Democrat and Republican parties are disappointed that pro-choice globalist liberal William Weld is the Libertarian Party nominee for vice president.

Any poll that shows this loon with >1% is BS.

This idiot is on Fox The Five right now and he is seriously uncredible. The guy jerks head around like he’s on drugs or had medical conditions same or worse than Clinton. He wants open borders to let illegals get to our jobs. Never once does he talk about Americans. The guys is real crazy in his discussion.

This guy needs to read “Libertarianism for Dummies.”

[Thibodeaux]

Johnson is a pretend candidate pretending to run

if you are not the Democrat or Republican nominee, you are a preteder

[Parley Baer]

The word needs to get out about the clown. The fools voting for him somehow think he is the lesser of the two evils. They are in for a shock when the truth comes out.

[Paulie]

Maybe he should stick to the one issue that bonds almost all libertarians.

Johnson just pulled a Ted Cruz.

If he gets another penny I’d be surprised.

[Reverend Wright]

this guy is competing with Hillary for “climate change” and “open borders” voters.

I say, give him all the TV airtime he wants.

[Lysandru]

Isn’t his running mate (Weld) pushing gun control?

[Vendome]

Insignificant punk.

Go away Johanson, Beck, et al...

[Texan5]

Apparently, Johnson has forgotten that a libertarian is not into socialism/communism-and so we see that overuse/abuse-of alcohol, weed, food, whatever can have detrimental effects-all things in moderation...

[Jim Robinson]

Johnson is a “useful idiot.”

[Iron Munro]

That kind of tax is intended to control behavior.

That’s about as far from a Libertarian position as you can get.

[Voluntaryist]

There’s a HUGE difference between little “l” and big “L” libertarianism and this just proves it even more.

[Fiji Hill]

So Gary Johnson wants a carbon tax, and his running mate Bill Weld wants gun control. Doesn’t seem to be a Zimbabwean nickel’s worth of difference between the Libertarians and the Democrats.

[Voluntaryist]

Correction, meant libertarian, not libertarianism, but you get the gist :)

[JPJones]

“I’m open also to the notion of a carbon tax,”

He’s a LINO!

[Chode]

easy now... i want every RAT voting for him he can get!!!

any vote for him isn't a vote for the Beast
