    I do generally lean towards lowercase-L libertarianism (I don’t support the Libertarian party) but running a huge deficit isn’t libertarian. Taxes shouldn’t be lower than spending in the long term.

      Im empathetic to surface level libertarian stuff, but i have to treat them for what they are overall; supporters of oligarchy. Their attacks on environmental protections and civil rights don’t out right say it, but its clear and the logical conclusion for “let the market solve it”
