Being libertarian minded, very classically liberal... I think most of these institutions might not need to have existed in the first place.
As an example, public funding for PBS... when all you need to is watch the PBS coverage of the SoTU address to see a perfect example in that it was indeed a partisan organization that shouldn't be getting public funding... even if I don't agree with a lot of Republican positions.

As a libertarian, I don't see how you can argue that no private entities should be allowed to have freedom of speech. Also, I wasn't talking about public funding. I was talking about the federal government illegally soliciting bribes and intimidating private organizations into implementing illegal government policies on their behalf.
- tracker1 7mo agoFreedom of speech is fine... my point was they were in fact partisan and deserved to have funding removed, even if you think the govt should fund public tv.
