To: AEMILIUS PAULUS

Libertarianism and liberalism were the politics of Sodom and Gomorrah which had zero(almost) conservatives, basically anti-God philosophies, and anti-American.

The libertarian goal for the future of America is revealed in their immigration efforts.

“”COMPLETE PLATFORM TEXT
INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS AND CIVIL ORDER

IMMIGRATION:
The Issue: We welcome all refugees to our country and condemn the efforts of U.S. officials to create a new “Berlin Wall” which would keep them captive. We condemn the U.S. government’s policy of barring those refugees from our country and preventing Americans from assisting their passage to help them escape tyranny or improve their economic prospects.

The Principle: We hold that human rights should not be denied or abridged on the basis of nationality. Undocumented non-citizens should not be denied the fundamental freedom to labor and to move about unmolested. Furthermore, immigration must not be restricted for reasons of race, religion, political creed, age or sexual preference. We oppose government welfare and resettlement payments to non-citizens just as we oppose government welfare payments to all other persons.

Solutions: We condemn massive roundups of Hispanic Americans and others by the federal government in its hunt for individuals not possessing required government documents. We strongly oppose all measures that punish employers who hire undocumented workers. Such measures repress free enterprise, harass workers, and systematically discourage employers from hiring Hispanics.

Transitional Action: We call for the elimination of all restrictions on immigration, the abolition of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Border Patrol, and a declaration of full amnesty for all people who have entered the country illegally.””

You are quoting the LP’s platform. As my original article did say, the LP is a minority of libertarians and is dominated by barely reformed hippies and weirdoes. The LP does not necessarily speak for most self-identified libertarians.

Most libertarians understand that a nation has some rights to sovereignty. However, because the US only allows a slight fraction of its immigration needs to be done legally, the result is a black market (illegals). If the US had allowed 10x the immigrants since the 1980’s, there would be very few illegals. Instead the value of the 11 million immigrants would be much higher (better educated, speak English, fewer social ills). People should come to the US in very large numbers, but the process can be orderly. Instead, anyone willing to break the law can enter the US, and every 30-40 years they get amnesty. The better solution is to allow 1 million people per year to enter provided they have a HS degree and can speak and read English.
