I am a Laissez-faire Capitalist. The political party whose views are closest to my own is the Libertarian Party.

If I had it my way, Anarchy. Not the black clad militant type. I mean the Utopian type! Think of Huxley's "Pala".
Well, I don't think a Utopian Anarchy will be in place ant time soon, so I lean toward the Libertarian party. They are the closest thing to anarchy; I can see; that has any chance of actually getting their hooks into the White house. They have some great ideas but also, some not so great ideas, so I can't quite commit my self to them. Although, if I could vote (no thanks to the Reps & Dems on this one), it would surely be for the Libertarian candidate...
I am so sick and tired of bipartisan politics!
I just wanna' tell all those Reps & Dems to have a nice cup 'o' and quit the public!
So whatever became of Richard Badnarick?

My point, exactly! The Libertarin party needs more exposure.

They also need more women... more GOOD LOOKING women. Then the exposure would be welcome.

I don't believe in any governmental philosophy.
But I'd be willing to settle for a libertarian-esque system as a compromise between my views and the majority's need for order.

Ya. I'm basically an anarchist at heart, though I'm not sure it would work out in real life. I figure the Libertarian party would bring us closer to anarchy than any other party, though.

I'm just for whatever party is going to work out the best. For some countries, it's probably a socialist party. For some countries, it's probably something akin to the libertarian party. America's such a mess, I haven't seen a party capapble of doing the job yet.

I am not a member of a political party. I detest big government and I want true free trade policy.
I would like to completely open up our markets with any nation that wishes to trade. That is what freedom is all about.
I would like to legalize drugs and free people to do what they want if they don't harm other people. I would also like to keep real criminals in jail for a very long time.
I would like to cut foreign aid, abolish the department of education, cut the State Department by 90%, and just keep on cutting piece off of our big government.
My ideal candidate would balance the budget, and he wouldn't do it by raising taxes. I don't care what party they come from or what party they call themselves. We should pay our bills and pay at least $1 a year back on the debt, at least in times of economic expansion.
I think that the Congress should spend money by giving causes a percentage of last year?s revenue instead of simply allocating dollars. To increase spending for one cause would mean to reduce it for another if revenue remains the same. They could fight the real economic trades offs that opportunity cost imposes on the real world.
I think that if Congress doesn?t balance the budget in years of economic expansion, then nobody from Congress should get paid for that year.

I'm a Prosgeopaxist. Political solutions and political parties are highly overrated.
