Libertarians are very much different from authoritarians, like you.
Did contemporary Americans forget America was supposed to be about
expanding individual liberty and limiting government? Government makes
laws. Laws create privileges for some and steal inalienable rights
from others in the porcess. Laws steal choices. They make you obey
someone else’s choices. It’s like being told where to sit on the bus.
Laws make you do things you would not want to do if you were free. In
today’s America all other political parties legislate to prohibit and
limit choices for some people and mandate the choices of others.
