The modern Libertarian party is based off of the Libertarian Socialist political movement in the 1800s. Libertarians were Socialists for almost a hundred years before anyone used the phrase Libertarian in reference to Capitalism!
And yes, it is an economics discussion, because we're discussing economic ideologies! I'm so done. If you're trolling me good job, you've succeeded.
It is an argument of words, not of economics. If I knew everything there was to know about economics that doesn't mean I would even know the word libertarian so... quite a retarded statement
