10 Positive Takeaways for Conservatives & Libertarians in Election 2020
Not to be overly argumentative (but hey, that’s what I do), but while there may be a “general” dichotomy between “conservatives” and “liberals” (yes, quotes are intentional as definitions are hard to nail down) when it comes to being left alone, the truth is that NEITHER group seems to truly respect the rights of others to simply be left alone. Are all voluntary exchanges between two or more people left alone by either group? Drugs, gambling, prostitution, property use, business operation, child rearing, foreign affairs (and the actions of supposedly sovereign nations that aren’t harming or threatening the US in any way), and I could go on and on with examples.
Personally I like the dichotomy presented by Jeff Deist of the Mises Institute – Imposers and the Imposed Upon.
Were there actually consistent principles within the GOP or the democratic party, rather than what I term “internal schizophrenia,” there would likely be no Libertarian, Constitution, Green, or other political parties. But when you condemn big government programs yet support the biggest one of all – war, and when you pretend to believe in personal liberty, but won’t allow people to spend their money or use their private property as THEY see fit, you set up the kinds of internal conflicts we see playing out in BOTH major parties, and the kinds of policy failures that keep most citizens always looking for something better and not believing the lies that pass for campaign promises from any of them.
