Can it be both? lol...


But yes, I'm bassicaly saying America is too socialist.


I want government to do three things:

Protect civil rights
Enforce the law
And have a means of national defense


That's it. Now granted, I'm not a pure libertarian. I do have some economic weaknesses such as nationalism which supports tariffs and organizations that regulate goods. (Like the food&drug administration)


But then I never claimed to be a puritan, simply a libertarian-leaning conservative who believes in pretty much these things:

A) A fetus has the right to be born into this world. Not get jabbed in the head.

B) People have a right to keep their entire paycheck and not donate a (*)(*)(*)(*) thing to anyone.

C) People have a right to do what they want with their bodies. But not what they want to other people's. Which is why drugs should be legal, but robbing someone for drug money shouldn't.
