I'd definitely vote libertarian because nowadays, republicans are democrats and democrats are socialists, and libertarians are *becoming* republicans.

I think we should have taken George Washington's advice against political parties.
Democrats aren't socialist; Bernie is only a "democratic socialist" and the Democratic establishment is behind Hillary who is really more of a left-centrist in my books.

I agree that we should have took Washington's advice. Hopefully in the future, the country will realize the corruption of the parties.
 
Actually the founding fathers didn't think you should be able to vote at all. Or me, or most Americans.
 
I often don't agree with libertarians on many, many subjects though there are a few subjects I agree (such as abortion). For instance, opposition to vaccinations and motorcycle helmets in the name of personal freedom is a very dangerous libertarian stance with virtually no gain.
 
I never understood the whole "you shouldn't be allowed to do anything negative to yourself" thing. it's my body, not yours.
 
If you get hospitalized because you didn't wear a seatbelt in an accident, guess who pays for it? That's right, tax payers. And when you harm yourself in a way that can be easily preventable, you also hurt your family members and other community members emotionally.

Also, not getting vaccinations hurts everyone since it compromises herd immunity and it hurts people who can't get vaccinations due to medical complications.

Why do we have to wear seatbelts then?

Because the government decided they had to take care of us, and so they made a law that really shouldn't be there. Seatbelts are common sense for some people.
