When Libertarians or the like say “I mind my own business”/ “live and let live” what do they really mean? Is there really a Libertarian Party anymore?

[AzogtheDefiler]

Clearly you don't by yer past posts. There is zero logic in saying how you lost with chiding unless yer a kid.

English please, defect.

Enjoy the unemployment line

Based on my experiences here it seems like self proclaimed Libertarians are just re-packaged socially left as hell progressives who are probably voting Democrat in secret…kind of…sometimes.

Incorrect.

I'm a Libertarian , The Founding Fathers were Libertarians - CLASSICAL LIBERALS - I voted from President Trump.

So the Libertarians you know are NOT Libertarians.

The Lesser of evils -

The elite which hijacked the Democrat Party are avowed Marxists.

You're gonna be really busy if you ask everyone who voted for him that.

I'm only asking because the poster claimed to be a libertarian.

 

[No Way]

It was infested by marxists who thought they were being edgy.

Was there a Saint running ?

Yup.

Our choices were
1- the cackle queen which was going to cause irreparable damage to the nation
2- President Trump who was going to greatly help our nations - although I disagree with his middle eastern policy - I favor the Palestinians

Anytime I hear “I mind my own business” or “live and let live” it’s generally a Libertarian of sorts saying it, it’s usually directed at a Conservative and seemingly used to thwart conservative efforts to preserve and protect American values, family values, Christian values, western culture and or the moral order that built and pillared this once great nation.
Lets be honest…these days, doesn’t “live and let live” and “I mind my own business” really just mean ‘I’m happy with the Leftist movement in America right now so leave it alone you meddling Conservative’?

Libertarians--that's the Libertarian party with a capital L--are absolutely not live and let live. They want no restrictions on drugs or abortion, approve of wide open borders, oppose any public religious expression outside of enclosed religious services, want no decency laws or anything that restricts personal freedoms in any way. They do tend to be more fiscally conservative and would do away with most government services.

On the other hand, 'classical liberals' or libertarians (small 'L') wrote the Constitution with power to the people and as the supreme law of the whole county. But they also allowed the people in the various states to form whatever sorts of societies they wished to have however narrow minded/restrictive or however wide open and lawless without interference from the federal government.

The philosophy was that a free people would experiment, try different things, make and correct mistakes, and eventually settle into communities that pretty much everybody was comfortable with. And all across the country, with little or no interference from the federal government, that pretty much happened everywhere.

Nope.

Yep…nobody else had a chance at winning…You honestly didn’t know that?

Well, it looks like you got that exactly backwards.

Trump has caused over $11 trillion of damage to the nation.

If people live within the set laws then it's nobody's business what they do or how they live their lives. It's called freedom. Want to try to tell me what I must accept after laws you are illegally overstepping your bounds. That's an infringement of my rights.

This lends itself to the outdated get married in one's 20s, and have kids and such. Not any more. People are looking for financial stability now. For many that means none or maybe one kid. And that is good enough.
