I submit you need to look up the difference between progressive and libertarian.

Cutting federal government spending and activity, whether the ‘war on some drugs’ or government regulation of healthcare insurance would not be progressive, but would be libertarian.

Progressives support recreational drug use because it creates social ills which they can use to justify creation of social programs. Libertarians support legalization of recreational drugs because it reduces the Authoritah of the police state and opportunities for government corruption.

Libertarians have always ‘split’ what could be an overwhelming vote....they are divisive and always will be.

Am laughing now because it’s just laughable those who support Libertarians always “center” on the drug issues one way or the other, no matter what the main issues is we’re really facing.

Sorry but no sell for me on Libs......

I'm starting to find that conservatives are becoming stronger proponents of welfare that I used to think they were. They need it because welfare is their last excuse for justifying prohibition. "We can't legalize drugs because the drug users will just go on welfare!" Take that away and it just makes them look like a bunch of busybodies who want to meddle in the lives of others with stollen money.

look up the difference between progressive and libertarian.

A progressive is a drug-crazed, baby-killing, boy-raper who wants bigger government.

A Libertarian is a drug-crazed, baby-killing, boy-raper who wants smaller government.

Get back to us when the Libertarians grow a spine on Moral issues and quit being for Open Borders.

As a group, because of their left-wing positions on many issues, they are next to useless.

Now, small ‘l’ libertarians are a different matter.

They’re not just greedy Democrats, but actually understand the correct usage and structure of Government.
