Consider myself a conservative liberatarian (small L) due to overreach of government issues on both sides and the epidemic corruption within the R party. I vote 100% Republican though because I’m not an idiot. If there was a decent L candidate and it wasn’t going to jeopardize something I value, I would vote L.
I am kind of the same way.
I am just relaying my personal experience.
I use to subscribe to Liberty & Reason magazine. I thought wouldn’t it be great to meet these authors and others of a like mind and discuss the articles. Instead all I ever met were people who were angry at stop signs or constant dopers.
