    Libertarians are not anarchist, imo. Anarchist are anti Government period and would love to see the fall of our country.
    Libertarians, and I lean that way in some regard, are small government, fiscally conservative, pro capitalism, freedom of choice, and for/support LGBT, Same sex marriage and Pro Choice. Now that's just my opinion and I have voted libertarian a few times over the years.

    Splitting hairs here, but nobody claimed libertarians are anarchists.

    Someone said "he could mean libertarian". Not splitting hairs, just voicing my opinion like many others that do regularly here.

    Right, but the person who said that didn't say anything about anarchists.

    It is interesting how close they are though... Which is made even more apparent by the current misunderstanding.

    The politicians who claim to be libertarians are actually conservative Republicans. They oppose minimum wage, anti-discrimination laws, health and safety standards, and also oppose marriage equality and legal abortion. But some support marijuana legalization since they indulge.

    I know who they are. Just as there are some radicle progressives that are for open borders, anti police, pro big government with lots of bureaucratic inefficiencies that don’t promote business and competition. Im an independent that would like a balance. Im an old hippie that has seen the negatives of both major parties especially when they lean extreme.

    middle grounders like us are being pulled by both sides and are being demanded to join one side or the other.

    how about some of the radicals on each side take a step towards the middle instead of trying to force everyone to their extremes???

    Its common sense that if we want to remain a republic for the good of the people politicians need to compromise and find some common ground for bi partisan achievements. Give and take is essential to make progress where there is impasse.
    Im so ready for term limits and ridding congress of bought off politicians from that want to make a career of serving lobbyist.

    I used to have a Blue Tic Hound dog that would chew up bottle caps and spit them out as me and my buds would be playing poker drinking beer. When someone opened a beer Web would be immediately begging for the cap.
    Bet you cant do that....
