re: The statement you posted is a great and unpleasant truth of politics...

The simple fact is that both the left and right wing practise socialism, taxing people and giving it to their constituents. Both sides have idealists where the individual and his money are left alone by the state. Each part then has a balance between these two extremes, those who favour the individual and those who favor society dominating the individual.

Libertarianism (of which you claim to believe in) isn't about left or right, it's about the individual protected from society. I may not be an Ayn Rand fanatic any more but I got that part at least. Bush is just a corporate socialist, you need to find a future candidate who is more libertarian if you want things to change. They should have a shot after Jeb and Jenna Bush have been president.
