What makes you think libertarian philosophy would prevent our government from Constitutionally using protective tariffs if needed?

ah, and here lies the problem. The 'some do' and the 'some don't' camp......in fact it is a big deal but that's for another discussion.
"It is"? Why? -- Aren't you here to taunt libertarians?
Why not fess up & admit that's part of the discussion? -- And, - part of "the problem"..

No, to tell you the truth I came here to taunt Badray. Actually I used to have libertarian leanings......likely still do, but don't like libertarians as a new rule.
The 'some do'camp vs the 'some don't' camp finds its way in the larger more important issues (large to me anyway) and can be confusing on what the party will really stand.
It's late and I really came here for entertainment purposes only. Maybe we can talk tomorrow.
