Milton Friedman was a registered Republican who subscribed to some libertarian (small *l*) ideas.

Libertarians are one step up anarchists...a very small step.

Please use the actual quote.

“I am a libertarian with a small ‘l’ and a Republican with a capital ‘R.’ And I am a Republican with a capital ‘R’ on grounds of expediency, not on principle.”

But, he said, “I think the term classical liberal is also equally applicable. I don’t really care very much what I’m called. I’m much more interested in having people thinking about the ideas, rather than the person.”
