Re: Why Libertarianism Doesn't Work For Me

The Constitution Party sounds good in theory to me.

If I found a party that would ban corporate protection and added comsumer prtection for laborers and consumers I might end up voting for them but I don't see that as a plausible scenario.

I believe that once corporations were given the same protections as citizens then the Contitution became solely a protector by Corporations and for Corporations. Walmart, Tyco, & Enron became super-citizens and the rest of us became mere surfs eating the crumbs off of their table.

Another thing I would vote for is that any time our nation puts soldiers en-mass in harms way that Congress would have to approve it. Instead, since Vietnam, this has become the role of the Tyrant in charge.

A huge federal government is not healthy either but if a Constitutional protections only applied to individuals and not corporations then a lot of the lawyers and lobbyists in Washington would go home?

I voted for John McCain in the primaries last presidential primary because he was the closest to my political leaning but I really don't have a Candidate right now. Howard Dean wasn't my cup of tea but I would have voted for him anyway. I don't have a party or Candidate now but I don't know with computer elections if it even matters? Maybe Jimmy Carter can rally the people to have fair elections in this country? I would vote for Jimmy Carter if he ran. I think the media really controls who is elected and corporations have picked Kerry & Bush. It is kind of sad to me. Tweet
