“Libertarians are not conservative.”

Technically it’s conservatives that are libertarians not the other way around. Conservatism is not an ideology libertarian-ism is.


“they are radical leftist except on economic issues.”

That is most certantly not true of libertarians. Although a number of radical leftist like John Stuart have comically claimed the tittle of libertiaian. That is a bit like a NAZI calling himself conservative. Its only believable by those who don’t know anything about either.


As for the rest of your policy perceptions on libertians I can’t say i agree with almost any of that.

Post 22 is the positions of libertarianism and they are liberal, radical leftist.

I couldn’t make any sense of the rest of your post.

Maybe this will help. You saw how I described the libertarian position on immigration in post 22.

Now look at the official wording and see if my description was accurate.

COMPLETE PLATFORM TEXT
INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS AND CIVIL ORDER

IMMIGRATION:
“”The Issue: We welcome all refugees to our country and condemn the efforts of U.S. officials to create a new “Berlin Wall” which would keep them captive. We condemn the U.S. government’s policy of barring those refugees from our country and preventing Americans from assisting their passage to help them escape tyranny or improve their economic prospects.

The Principle: We hold that human rights should not be denied or abridged on the basis of nationality. Undocumented non-citizens should not be denied the fundamental freedom to labor and to move about unmolested. Furthermore, immigration must not be restricted for reasons of race, religion, political creed, age or sexual preference. We oppose government welfare and resettlement payments to non-citizens just as we oppose government welfare payments to all other persons.

Solutions: We condemn massive roundups of Hispanic Americans and others by the federal government in its hunt for individuals not possessing required government documents. We strongly oppose all measures that punish employers who hire undocumented workers. Such measures repress free enterprise, harass workers, and systematically discourage employers from hiring Hispanics.

Transitional Action: We call for the elimination of all restrictions on immigration, the abolition of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Border Patrol, and a declaration of full amnesty for all people who have entered the country illegally.””
