[Vision2020] Are you REALLY a libertarian?

[Donovan Arnold]

 My objection to Libertarianism is that it strips the people of
the right to determine their own form of government and the society they wish to
live in.  It removes using the government
as a means to solve a problem when it may at times be the best or least costly solution.

My opposition to libertarianism stems from my adherence to social contract theory. We agree to uphold the laws of a particular society in exchange for security. And vice versa: no security, no adherence to the law. 

Social programs are justified from a purely pragmatic point of view. Thus, libertarianism is false.

I agree with this.  Let's keep the brand name clean, so it doesn't get taken over like the original Tea Party did.
