Then I guess Reagan was a big govt liberal for ending the Cold War. Newt must’ve been a liberal because he figured how to get people off welfare and into work. And if you want to spend money to build a border fence, you must also be a liberal because ohmigosh! you had to spend $ to do it.

“Libertarianism is at the heart of modern conservatism.”

Ronald Wilson Reagan.

Did he ignore any problems?

I told you you understand neither conservatism nor libertarianism. You just set up straw dogs for what you THINK they are, and knock down the one, and build up the other. I think you need to do some reading of Milton Friedman, Walter Williams, and Thomas Sowell.
