Libertarian Right is like, Murray Rothbard, or Hans Hermann Hoppe

2019-09-06 00:23:41 UTC  

Facism is an inherently socialist ideology. Mussolini was a Socialist "but he was rejected!" the commie cries out as he strikes at you. And then what? He joined syndicalists (like AntiFa) and formed the fascist movement (hint a 'fasci' was a syndicalist cell in pre-war Italy)

"But but the fascists purged the socialists!" screams the soyboy defending his ideology. Yes. And the Bolsheviks purged the other socialist ellements in the Duma durring the revolution. Every socialist regime purges the other ellements.

@Weez yeah, but Antifa doesn't take up all of it

2019-09-06 00:24:05 UTC  

Sure thing Comrade ✊🏻

2019-09-06 00:24:09 UTC

Gary Johnson is Libertarian Left. Well, more like Independent Democrat.

Doesn't Gary have ties to the Tea Party?

2019-09-06 00:26:04 UTC  

Maybe I'm think of some other Libertarian

2019-09-06 00:26:37 UTC  

Gary Johnson? Maybe tangentially or circumstantially? His claim to being "Libertarian" is mostly on gay marriage, weed, and fiscal conservatism, from what I'm aware. And unlike most who claim to be fiscally conservative, he actually *did* reign in the budget.

I don't think that Venn diagram is perfectly representative. I consider myselft rather centrist or center-right libertarian, but I'd also support geo-libertarianism as a better justified base of taxation compared to taxing salary or corporate profit.

2019-09-06 00:27:46 UTC  

How is preferring land-use tax over corporate tax "left-wing"?

2019-09-06 00:28:06 UTC  

There's a lot of state tweaking bullshit that's more compatible with libertarianism than what we currently have, that's for sure.

2019-09-06 00:28:16 UTC  

If you support taxation of mining minerals over taxation of corporate profit... you are left-wing?

2019-09-06 00:28:18 UTC  

Grilling is bae. My neighbor brought out the grill today. I brought Bushmills. I think we are even.

2019-09-06 00:28:50 UTC  

For example, using a flat consumption tax, instead of a progressive income tax.

2019-09-06 00:29:10 UTC  

Consumption tax is better to weed out tax evasion.

2019-09-06 00:29:14 UTC  

Or using excise taxes.

2019-09-06 00:30:00 UTC  

Pretty much any kind of tax has the capacity to exacerbate perverse incentives, however.

2019-09-06 00:30:27 UTC  

Sure, but consumption taxes (like VAT) are more difficult to abuse than taxation of salary.

2019-09-06 00:30:29 UTC  

Which is one reason why the progressive income tax is so destructive.

2019-09-06 00:30:44 UTC  

Because to fool VAT, you would need to fool the entire chain of supply.

2019-09-06 00:30:56 UTC  

Consumption tax is inherently flawed as the less you make the greater percentage of your earnings you spend.

2019-09-06 00:31:06 UTC  

Then make more.

2019-09-06 00:31:14 UTC  

Generally to fool VAT, you need to purchase or smuggle stuff from China.

2019-09-06 00:31:33 UTC  

But that's what customs are for.
