People do not understand (because they do not value) staunch individual
freedom.

So the Republicans look at the Libertarian plank that says what you do to
your own body is absolutely no one's business but your own, and all they can
see
is a burned out hippie wanting pot to be legalized.

And Democrats look at the plank that opposes government involvement in trades
and professions and can only see anarchy and exploitation.

I keep a barf bag by the computer because in every discussion of
Libertarianism som moron is bound to pipe up and say, "Well, if we didn't
have government
regulation, Monsanto would take over the world."

It's because they neither understand nor value freedom.


All during the election analysis, the liberals said "those conservatives and
libertarianas" and the conservatives said "those liberals and libertarians".

Neither side having an inkling as to what the political philosophy is about.
