With reasoning like that, it is no wonder that the left and libertarians have driven this nation into the ground.

Uhhh . . tell me, please, which cities, which states do the libertarians have control of that they could drive the nation into the ground?

Seems to me, and most other freedom-lovers, that what has driven this country away from constitutional government and toward a police state is more laws and regulations on such things as drugs, food, toys and clothing -- exactly the opposite of the principle tenets of the libertarian philosophy, which presumes that individuals are capable of making decisions for themselves about their own well-being.

When conservatives get into bed with leftists and progressives who want to dictate every detail of everyone's life we have reason to worry.

You mean with reasoning that comes from the likes of Thomas Jefferson:

“A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have.”-Thomas Jefferson
