Ive been tut-tutted at a few times about not knowing anything about libertarianism. Yet despite the fact that the topic has come up is several threads recently- the McDonald's war, where has libertarianism been tried in real life, are you a libertarian or wanna be, and the carbon dioxide thread... nobody has been able to provide a cogent explanation about libertarianism, and what it means TO THEM.

So, would someone... anyone, or preferably several someones... who claim to be libertarian please provide an explanation, and be prepared to answer specific direct questions about how it might work?

Until that explanation is provided, will you please refrain from tsking about a topic that you not yet explained?

I feel like we've had this thread before here... Hmm. I've stated my views on the matter already, so I'm at a bit of a loss as to what is being asked here.

Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

You have? Where?

I don't read every thread here, believe it or not, so it may have gotten past me. Can you either provide a link, or copy-and-paste, or just re-state your explanation of libertarianism?

Summed up nicely here...

* Simply put, I believe in freedom. I believe the Constitution should be amended with a clause which states that neither the federal nor any state government shall make any activity that does not violate, through force or fraud, a persons right to life, liberty or property, a crime. I firmly believe that if liberty is to be preserved in America, it will be libertarian thought, if not the Libertarian Party, that saves it.[1]

1. FAKE "TEA PARTY" LIBERTARIANISM = Foreign corporate GOP takeover by Sarah Palin et al to let the multinationals overthrow USA for world govt dictatorship (Rand Paul?)

2. REAL TEA PARTY LIBERTARIANISM = American freedom (formerly) by Ron Paul is the only way USA can survive by ending all wars, legalizing dope (kills 1000% less than meds and would kill the mafias), ending "Fed" Reserve Bank, ending IRS and ending income tax (no more govt churches in 501c3), no national sales tax, no property tax, no vehicle taxes, no driver license internal passport for non-commercial drivers, no welfare for illegal aliens, and putting govt back in the box

3. ACTUAL TEA PARTY LIBERTARIANISM = Kill all those who oppose American freedom in 1776, enforce 99% less taxes than we have today, US presidents have dope farms, kill millions of illegal aliens, joos have almost zero power since there is no private central joo bank counterfeiting all "money" then loaning it to govt at interest, no govt Church of England, no govt "christian" churches in joo 501c3
