And taxes would be lowered for everyone, not just the richest Americans.
By reducing the burden of the government to just protecting our rights and our land, you remove a great weight from the people. Or do you think the government does a better job of spending your money than you do?
I'm voting Libertarian. I don't care if it's not going to produce a viable result, it shows my support for an alternative to a two-party system.

These are all valid arguments and good reasons to vote Libertarian. I agree with most of them, but they are not reasons why anyone who disagrees with you and chooses to vote Rep. or Dem. has no dignity or self-respect or has been blinded and woozyified by the big mediapolitical machine. If I actually disagree with what the Liberatarian candidate stands for, should I vote for him just so I don't vote for a major party?
