I'm not criticizing, but what's a better alternative to the two mainstream political parties we are currently saddled with?
I'm asking because while I don't belong to any political party, there are aspects of libertarianism that do appeal to me, such as dramatically reducing government spending, government waste, government corruption, and actually observing the constitution.
- richardjordan 14y agoSadly I don't think this is a great forum for useful dialogue on that topic, but the two parties seem to be taking turns driving the bus into the ditch and heckling from the sidelines. I do think that the key is in market mechanisms and efficient markets need strong regulatory control (a market is just an efficient computer for processing collective decision making, and without proper programming it won't deliver answers to the questions you think it's answering), and libertarians often fail to appreciate the value in this leading to laissez-faire market rigging.
