No fraud.
No theft.
No violence.


These would be the three laws in a Libertarian society. You would otherwise be free to make exchanges (in the bedroom or the boardroom) without interference from an oppressive government.

I will never understand why conservatives hate this idea.

these measures would have been practical had we not been in engaged in a war against the islamic world.

we first need to address the islamic threat before we can move ontoa part libertarian society at some point in the future.

thats where we should be headed i feel.

Even after he's been dead for over a year...Reagan's words still make more sense than anyone today...

Sure, we've got our "loony libertarians" who want open borders, an isolationist foreign policy, and the legalization of all drugs and prostitution.

Those are the main party campaign platform planks. And "loony" would define the last Presidential candidate. Reagan was talking about libertarianism before it was highjacked by anarchists and marijuana growers.
