I was told once by this moron who said the LP should be forcibly disbanded because we're "a threat to the nation".
With that kind of thinking, one wonders if he was really a liberal in disguise.
But, why should we disband? Why should there be only TWO parties?
This country was founded on, among other things, competition. Politics is a business, as well as a messy, disgusting activity which usually draws out the bottom feeders of society, but that's beside the point.
Suppose we only had two companies in the U.S.: One provides Goods, and the other provides Services. Who are you going to complain to when you receive shoddy Goods or rotten Service? They're the only games in town! They've got it locked up... you have to deal with them, and their "Customer Service Representatives" aren't going to listen; they'll just go through the motions.
The government is employed by us, not the other way around.

But you'd have to admit the libertarians can do more damage as a part of the Republican Party. There are plenty of libertarian Republicans out there already, myself included.
