I can understand Libertarians being pro-life given that your world view on "life" has jack shit to do with freedom.

Being against gay marriage is ridiculous though unless you're against all marriage.


Being against marriage is generally a libertarian stance though

Nah, being against state involvement in marriage is libertarian, marriage itself is a sacred institution involving religious traditions.

Anything outside of that is just Disney fantasy pretend, marriage isn't about love as much as it is about procreation.

That explains what happened during the Gilded Age. So we stopped being a Democracy when big business found out they could just buy votes and politicians to subsidize their costs and privatize the profits? I say no we were not, because women weren't even allowed to vote at that point.

I don't know how you can believe in an imaginary invincible tyrant who loves you and cares about your sex life, but you don't believe in a state we can point at and experience that has actually made life better for hundreds of millions of our neighbors. No wonder libertarians make up <1% of the electorate.

Lol. Except for the economics part.....from what I see Libertarians aren't that strong in economics, more like a Dunning-Kruger effect.

Egg =/= Chicken.

Was that really the misunderstanding?

The United States Constitution doesn't take a stand on your metaphysical beliefs bro.

And the sticker was about fake Libertarians who are Republicans-Except-In-Name, or REINs, they're like RINOs, just opposite. See Ron Paul.

Your trolling skills are lacking. Too obvious and inaccurate.

My favorite is the look on Reagan's face. You know it would be a good party, especially after TR started doing shots of whiskey.

Our presidential history is greater than any line of kings.
