Joseph64: Whether it's in the constitution or not in a free society employers should not be forced to hire employees. It should be voluntary for both employer and employee.

Employees should have the right to form unions but employers should also have the right to fire union employees.

If you vote for Romney because he's the lesser of two evils, that's fine. If you vote for Romney because you actually think he'd make a better president than Gary Johnson then you are an idiot.

I wouldn't mind if conservatives said, "Hey, I like Gary Johnson, he'd make a better president than Mitt Romney, but he can't win so we should vote for Romney." But instead they trash libertarian thinking candidates. This shows their hypocrisy when they say they support limited government.

Yup. That's why I vote libertarian.

I agree. Most conservatives talk about limited constitutional government but they'll use any excuse to trash candidates who actually DO support limited government.

That's part of it. It's also the fed keeping interest rates artificially low and government stimulus from both parties among other things.

Conservatives had only token criticism of Bush. The proof of this was their reaction in 2007 when Ron Paul tried to run for president.

Even better, read Peter Schiff's "How to Profit from the Coming Economic Collapse". He wrote that BEFORE the crash.

Joseph, you are trying to use the line of reasoning that one action might lead to another action, that might lead to a crime. That's a bunch of BS, mental gymnastics. Sorry, you're wrong. Get over it. We need to legalize drugs and start worrying about more important things like the 16 trillion in debt that liberals and conservatives are unwilling to address.

This is a frustrating issue for libertarians (like myself) because it's such a no-brainer. I believe in individual rights, I own myself, I should be allowed to eat or drink or ingest whatever I want. Period. I don't want to argue about it anymore than I want to argue that 1+1=2.
