Then they wouldn't be libertarians!
they’d be as libertarian as the current republicans are republicans.
The question is has the GOP veered too far away from the economic conservativism to be a viable long term movement. I think probably so.
So now the question is if libertarian lines up more to my conservativism than does republicanism. Its becoming increasingly clear to me that it does. I’ll work to incorporate reasonable approaches to the areas that I have disagreement with the libertarian platform, just like I do the GOP, but the difference is that I’ll be standing truer to where I’d like to see the country than I do right now when supporting the current group of career political entertainers.
