No. I don't make commitments unless I'm sure I can follow through on them.
I would like some sort of chance of my children growing up in a free society, no matter how that's acheived. I barely recognize this country anymore.
I'm not a Libertarian, so that's one big sticking point. I think it's immoral and insane to kill babies. Also, I wouldn't have a problem with softening drug laws and ending the WOD, but allowing people to run meth labs next door to me is immoral and insane as well.
I also run a business and have certain family issues. I love Florida, although it's becoming the socialist cesspool that I left back in New York.
I'm going to watch what you guys do and how you handle yoursleves. Your plan is workable if done properly. However if you make it about Libertarian politics you'll get flushed down the toilet. Promise you that.
Concur. From the FSP FAQ page:
Put in a positive way, most FSP members support policies such as abolition of all income taxes, elimination of regulatory bureaucracies, repeal of most gun control laws, repeal of most drug prohibition laws, complete free trade, decentralization of government and widescale privatization.
People of this disposition may go by many names: "classical liberals" [not the same as modern liberals at all, but followers of Thomas Jefferson and similar thinkers), libertarians, paleoconservatives, constitutionalists, fusionists, etc., etc.

Not all libertarians are pro-choice. I have found many to be for life. It all comes down to one's understanding of life. If one believes that a fetus is not life but merely part of the woman's body then choice is logical as it would be no more anyone else's business than if you had a wart removed. However if one believes a fetus is a human life then the law requires the protection of life. Also many libertarians are against Roe v. Wade because they do not believe it good constitutional law. It should be a state matter. Before '73 some states had abortion, others outlawed it. The people legislated according to their understanding of human life. A libertarian state could go either way. The key to the abortion issue is changing people's minds and hearts.
A breif aside; it is very libertarian to be responsible for ones actions. Abortion is an quick and easy out for a 18+ year burden resulting from irresponsible behavior.
