Current libertarian platform may even be more left on some of these as well, but this is pretty accurate on Libertarians.

That is a good graphic overall and I will save it for handy reference...the problem with Libertarianism is, in my opinion, that they want to take ANY or ALL of those categories and pick what they want out of them...which to me, approaches anarchy, or no government or rules.

That is my experience with them.

If you were to make a third column, the stances while generally consistent for Democrats and what they want, and Republicans for what they want, and if viewed in a binary form (to provide contrast) there would be absolutely no consistency, and thus, in my mind, unworkable.

I admit to not having much respect for Libertarians for that reason. I know a lot of Conservatives who have a Libertarian bent to them, but for the most part, again, that is towards smaller government.
