[-Erik-] Lethkhar Socially-Yes, anyone should be allowed to do whatever they want as long as they don't hurt anyone. Economically-No, a complete lack of regulation in a market leads to corporatism and a lack of responsibility by investors, as was seen in the latest market's crash. I also believe that the government should be responsible for providing equal opportunity for everyone, something which Libertarians are against.And honestly, the "Libertarian" Party here in the US isn't strictly libertarian. Bob Barr, the guy who ran for president in their party in 2008, is really just a neoconservative. If they were actually libertarian, you'd see Ron Paul running on their platform. Libertarians are against that? I thought it was what they were aiming for. Yeah, I don't live in the USA. No, true Libertarians believe that the only function of government is to protect your right to the pursuit of property, along with other basic freedoms. They don't give a s**t about equal opportunity.

Let me rephrase that: A minimum level of opportunity.

They don't give a s**t about equal opportunity. You're really not going to get equal opportunity in any system unless you take away children from their families at birth. Socialised childcare would do well, but at the same time if you want to make equal opportunity meaningfull, everyone has to recieve equal levels of education, all the way through university, you also have to provide employment that isn't rendered unstable by the vagaries of the market, so that able people aren't thrown out of a job due to their emplyer going bust, so that implies a collectivised economy. To allow people to have free opportunity without having to worry about or be stiffled by a crippling bureaucracy, it needs to be done away, and society needs to be organised on a thoroughly collective and democratic basis.
In a word, to have true equal opportunity you need a communist society. Something libertarians fight against.
