Could a member of the libertarian party please comment on the moral obligation we have (or do not have) to ensure that all children are well-fed? I want to better understand your position on issues like these.
- mnemonicsloth 18y agoIt's evident that you haven't met many real libertarians. Very few of us actually join the Libertarian Party. It has no influence in the real world. I think most people, regardless of their political orientation, would rather have some control over an imperfect process than none at all. By asking to talk to members of the Libertarian Party, you're refusing to talk to the subset of libertarians who can make compromises, and deal with the moral ambiguities that exist in the real world. There are some well-meaning people in the Libertarian Party, but mostly you're asking for compound-dwelling wackos.
