What is Libertarianism?

What is Libertarianism?
John Stossel, a Libertarian working for Fox News recently did an hour special discussing Libertarians. What I liked most about this special is that he asked the challenging questions that people usually ask, even though he agrees with the panel completely.

John Stossel is a great journalist. He did the 20/20 special on intolerance towards atheists a few years ago:

RE: What is Libertarianism?
I'm glad Fox actually has someone who knows their stuff. Too bad he's not on the 'front page' of Fox. I'd like to see more people like him in the front. Dumbshits like Hannity (and O'Reilly, and Palin, and Beck, ah you get the point.....) need to go home. Think how awesome Fox would be with a bunch of Libertarians leading it, and not to mention it would be a fresh look at possibilities in a troubled country. What I mean by that is a lot of people don't know anything about Libertarianism, and there would definitely be more of us if the word got out there. Followed by that would be more support for Libertarianism. Then again, a lot of people I meet would be opposed to Libertarianism for its acceptance of things like drugs and abortion. Still however, I feel the general population needs to understand its principles. Too bad religion hogs the billboards where I live....

Fox doing something right? I must be in an alternate dimension.
