If EVERYTHING in the Libertarian platform were to be implemented, illegal immigrants would leave pretty rapidly, because without public assistance, this is a LOUSY country to be poor in.

"If EVERYTHING in the Libertarian platform were to be implemented, illegal immigrants would leave pretty rapidly, because without public assistance, this is a LOUSY country to be poor in." If EVERYTHING in the Libertarian platform were to be implemented, there wouldn't BE illegal immigrants, because the Libertarian platform doesn't have immigration limits. Mark (Libertarian) P.S. Back when America WAS close(r) to being libertarian--prior to the New Deal--America was a GREAT place to be poor in (that's why so many poor people came to America). It was a great place to be poor, because poor people had the FREEDOM to become rich.

#655: The problem being, most of what's in the Libertarian platform is pure utopian wishes.

And even it the platform were even remotely implementable, the cry for open borders and legal drugs would still be insane. I've seen entire neiighborhoods wiped out from drugs and now I've seen both World Trade Towers toppled because of our insane immigration policy.

Frankly, that's enough for me...
