Funny how libertarians and conservatives are all in favor of big government when it defends their particular private interests. Socialism for the rich, capitalism for everyone else as the common meme goes.
- Natsu 7y agoActually many of them are working on proposals to get rid of a state entirely. I think that will probably not work out at all, but that's hardly wanting "big government." Oddly enough, I found this video to be a better debate on the subject of libertarianism vs. Marxism than most of what can be found online because it doesn't seem to strawman either side: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwqnRYPcrl0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwqnRYPcrl0
- tathougies 7y agoI dunno, the libertarians at places like reason.com seem to be pretty opposed to any government at all. There is no major libertarian party or even representative at the national level, so it's hard to say what they are in favor of.
