Hillary or Trump: Which of These is the Lesser of Two Evils?

[Jenny A]

That rather extreme libertarianism.  I wouldn't go there.

There's a difference between liberal and libertarian, just as there is between socialism and social democracy. European definitions, since I find the American terms skewed towards an agenda.

Liberal means granting individuals rights to privacy and to persue their own goals in life, without the state interfering. Libertarianism is totally laissez faire, geared towards the fairy tale of a self regulating market. Neo conservatism might be the more appropriate term for that, since it's rather about every man for himself than promoting any kind of community. Ayn Rand isn't off the charts to describe that kind of view.

Liberatian does not mean liberal. Nor does it mean conservative. It means as few governmental restrictions as possible both socially and economically. Ayn Rand and others take this idea to an extreme that I do not. I am libertarian not anarchist. And I do believe some economic regulation is necessary, just far less than either the democrats other the repunlicans.
