I read that people are “seriously considering” voting for Barr.
That’s oxymoronic. Nobody serious would vote for Barr in this election!
I get really tired of libertarians, who seem to think they have the magic answer, voting in ways that always help the more leftish of the candidates. Paradoxically, their votes almost always help the person least congruent to their ideals.
I used to be a registered Libertarian. Then I grew up.
It’s been my experience that Libertarians are smart people without a clue (just like a lot of Marxist professsors, except the Libertarians are in Mensa instead of academia). The rest are airhead libertines who think the two words mean the same thing (think Bill Mahr).
If you believe libertarian principles work in a real political system, you have faith in an ideology no more based on actual human behavior than Marxism.
Libertarianism is an ethical stance, not a viable political one. Libertarianism provides some important ideas that conservatives need to pay attention to, and nothing else.
