And how do they differ from conservatives?

Less government intervention in everything hedonistic.

” - - - But it’s the (L) whom are the problem somehow? - - - “

It is always about the money: Invade the USA, take all the free stuff that the gullible Americans pay their taxes for, and then bring up all the extended family from Mexico to get more free stuff.

The INS has been ordered not to detain the ‘Invasion of the Illegal Aliens.’

Just follow the money, because Americans are the most stupid people on Earth when it comes to financial security, especially financial security from their borders.

The 2016 Campaign politician that runs a Sheriff Joe Arpaio Mexican Border Campaign will win in a landslide.

The Peace Pipe? Support making the USA hostile to the Mexican Illegal Alien Free Stuff Invasion, and then we’ll talk.

Rand is already being morphed by drinking the DC water. Talks too much of “pragmatism” and such.

What would fall under “hedonistic”? Abortion, gay marriage, and drugs I assume. What about immigration? What about military intervention?

Welcome to FR.

Beware the belligerent effort to conflate leftism and libertarianism.

Oh, I’m for strict adherence; I’m not one of the Open Border (L) types. I should preface that by saying I can see Open Borders when:

1. Gov’t is out of the workforce (min. wage, rules/regs, etc.) - contract only matters between me and my employ(ee/ers)
2. Gov’t out of ‘benevolence’ - no free ride. Charity starts at home, not from my wallet.
3. No anchor babies...follow the 14th entirely

Yup.

None of that is within the originally-envisioned role of the federal government.

Read a few things like the Federalist Papers and the Constitution and you will know.

The Constitution and the original 10 amendments set out what the federal government can do. It is up to us to determine the things the federal government have no authority to engage.

These things you want me to give you examples of are extra-Constitutional.
