Ok, so let's say for the sake of argument that a Libertarian candidate wins.

How long will it take to change all of this? Don't forget, it has to go through congress, which at that point might be equally as big in libertarian, dems, repubs.

Say the candidates' 4 years are up and a republican joins office... everything is back to the way it was.

Are we going to have to deal with these changes each time a candidate comes into office? A libertarian comes in, removes government regulation, decriminalizes drugs, splits things into private businesses, then his term is up. A republican comes in, makes drugs illegal again, or a democrat takes office and re-adds the government regulated programs.

Won't that screw things up?
