Maine kicks lazy bums off of public assistance

Is that the lesson from the history of food shortages?

yes, all food shortages are man made. Even God Himself isn't so pissed off at me that He has ever allowed me to outgrow my food supply. If you want to start a war let's fight it like well fed healthy men, and don't try to win by starving the enemy out.

2.4 Government Finance and Spending

All persons are entitled to keep the fruits of their labor. We call for the repeal of the income tax, the abolishment of the Internal Revenue Service and all federal programs and services not required under the U.S. Constitution. We oppose any legal requirements forcing employers to serve as tax collectors. Government should not incur debt, which burdens future generations without their consent. We support the passage of a "Balanced Budget Amendment" to the U.S. Constitution, provided that the budget is balanced exclusively by cutting expenditures, and not by raising taxes.

what's the point of balancing a budget if you have no revenue to balance? Where does this revenue you want to balance come from if there is no revenue? Don't tell me you want to impose tarrifs on the things I like and you don't need.

When one ignores the questions that naturally arise from all of that it sounds very appealing, very kumbaya.

I don't know you tell me. You are the one that claims to be a Libertarian and you didn't even realize that the quote is from the Libertarian Party website even though the link is above the quote. My point was that you claim to be a Libertarian and yet you advocate for taxes.

So that begs the question, are you really a libertarian or a libtard in libertarian clothing?

I voted a straight libertarian ticket the last two elections. How about you? If you didn't, you are not a libertarian and I am. And I tell you what a libertarian is, not you tell me, because you are not even one. Whatever I advocate for is what a libertarian advocates for. Now why don't you just go back to your tired old dying republican party and talk amongst yourselves while we smoke a little pot.

So you are voting for a party in which you do not agree with its economic policies? Who is smoking the pot? Do you even know anything about the Libertarian Party?

I know if I vote for it I am part of it. And I know a hell of a lot more what a libertarian is than somebody who doesn't vote for them and stands on the outside and tries to figure out how we are.

You can't comprehend us because you are still an old dying republican who needs everthing explained to you in black and white terms so you will know what you are for and what you are against.

That's my biggest laugh is when people tell me if I am a libertarian I can't be for food stamps, because being both blows their shallow little mind.

I am simply quoting the Libertarian Party platform from its website.

Perhaps a better description would be libtardarian for you.

ok, before you pull that lever, read carefully the official Party Platform that you are voting for. What are you if you don't agree with everything in the platform?
