- What is the Libertarian Party? | What are the political views of the Libertarian Party?
In this video I discuss the viewpoints of the Libertarian Party on several different topics. We first look at an overview of the fundamental views of the party itself, including their founder, slogan, and their stance on government involvement. Then we talk about their stances in the following areas:
Taxes - 00:45
Economy - 1:35
Healthcare - 2:17
Civil Rights - 2:55
Education - 3:54
Immigration - 4:26
Although there are many other views of the Libertarian Party, this is mean to give a brief and informative introduction to the Libertarian Party's platform.

Before this video, I didn’t know that I am
a libertarian.
I’m glad that my video was informative for you! Thanks for watching!
If you'd stop and take a moment to realize how actually stupid this is, then you probably wouldn't be a Libertarian...
@@ficsitinc.pioneer8695 tell us why it's stupid then
@@BLANK-wh7kh People can tell you 5000 reasons why this is a bad idea, but I'll only tell you a few
"Nah... Ending government programs? Food stamps, IRS, and others? That's just plain dumb... You should know that those agencies exist for a reason, if we abolished the CDC, then how would we have health and safety regulations? How would we prevent pandemics? How would we study deadly illnesses?
Pay taxes when you want to? Look, not even I like paying taxes, however most of the money collected goes into things like social security, food stamps, and other public services our government provides. Do you really think people would donate to Non-profits enough to make up for the lack of funding by the federal government? Right now, a LOT of non profits receive funding from federal grants, if they didn't have the ability to apply and receive federal grants, then they'd probably go under.
"The only government role, should be to protect property rights" Are you insane? (Not the person making this video, but the libertarians) Last time we didn't have government regulations on the economy, we called it a 2008! I really do not have enough trust in the private sector to regulate themselves, and choose morals over profit! People on wall street already take serious gambles that can effect the entire economy, if we didn't have tight regulations on what you can and cannot do, who would stop them from insider trading? Wall street effects Millions of Americans, and constantly has billions up for grabs, if they aren't careful with their money, jobs are probably going to be lost.
"Healthcare system without government oversight"? Really, these people are insane. IF you had a private healthcare system, who would stand up for people with pre existing conditions? How would we make sure that companies don't inflate prescription costs? How would these prescriptions be regulated so entire towns aren't flooded with opioids? As it stands, our current healthcare with the private sector is god awful, with this plan It'd be even worse! Ask yourself, Is it moral that I leave my trust in a FOR-profit company to insure me that I won't go into debt if I have a medical emergency or condition? That they will put my needs before profit, and sometimes to protect me, lose profit? Do you really have enough trust in companies to do that?
On the freedom part, the 2 parties (I assume) already stand for Civil rights, they may disagree to what extent they have, but they on a large majority agree with the basics. What I MAJORLY disagree with was the "Child Custody" part, if the government doesn't step in to prevent abusive parenting, who will? Since regular citizens do not have the authority to remove children from households, and since a law like that may be in place, nobody will have the power to remove children from abusive situations. Right now as it is, the CPS has very tight rules on what defines an "Abusive Situation" already! For example, my mother used to work at afterschool program in an area with sadly, a lot of poor people. One day, a staff member of hers noticed that a child had bruises on their arm, my mother then decided to report the situation to CPS because of prior incidents with the mother. And yet, even with all that, CPS still could not even inspect the home due to state regulation, the child was later removed to her grandmother's home, and now is safe. How would anybody have the power to stop that kind of situation? it'd be horrible!
"Education is best provided by the free market" No, it's 100% not! In America, the wealthiest country on earth, A percentage of kids don't even have enough money to pay for meals, If the public school system was abolished, how would those children pay for private school? IF people started free schooling for children, almost instantly they would be hit with budgeting issues, not to mention the large amount of children they'd be teaching. With that, how likely would it be to get a decent education? how likely would those funded programs have quality teacher, and teaching programs? It wouldn't.
The only thing I somewhat agree with is immigration, I do not support illegal immigration, however our system needs to be reworked."
@@ficsitinc.pioneer8695 thank you so much for your extensive response. much appreciated
I was always neutral to politics. This has now made me Libertarian.
Hell yeah
thats cool but you shouldnt let one video decide what you want
@@superluigidummy lmao true but 90% of gen z does that xD
@thegreen iguana I agree with you
@thegreen iguana I guess, but to be honest, greed and selfishness would ruin any form of government.
Wow I have literally had this mindset my entire life overall. I am a Libertarian and always state so whenever someone asks me what my stance is. I say i'm not left or right wing and I think this is why I have been given backlash, critisism and been misunderstood when sharing my viewpoints. I have stood firmly by my Libertarian mindset and refuse to budge my position. Very well done video and I 100% agree. Libertarian is the future we should be fighting for but not the path many sadly choose or even are aware of.
Glad you found this video to be accurate and useful!
...there are also people that are simply just not interested in politics, and loving their lives doing whatever non-political activities they enjoy doing. It's kind of a "necessary evil" to assign a political affiliation to Libertarian-minded people. It's an oxymoron if you think about it
the problem with the libertarian party, is that they are very self serving. free markets don't work because it allows monopolies. the problem with unregulated capitalism, is that it quickly becomes fascism. which is what were on the verge of now. in theory it sounds great, but in practice it is very corrupt. our government is corrupt because corporate entities hold more power than the people or the government itself, and can leverage them against each other under duress. the idea of libertarian is that the community will support itself, and look out for its neighboring business and provide healthy competition. but history shows us that small business gets shut down by big business, then after gaining control, charge more for products, and pay employees less after destroying the competition. Libertarians are by definition, very very far right in the economy aspect. it doesnt get more right wing than libertarian. but the social equality views are a tad left leaning, but in practice, very easy to corrupt, and has never worked in history.
Thank you for teaching me what school didn’t lol
Any time!
Jo Jorgensen 2020, she deserves to be on the presidential debate stage
Is she going to get rid of social security for those over 66? I need that when I reach 67 in 20 plus years. I need my income tax so I can pay into social security now
@@sandbar3000 no she is not going to get rid of social security. People can stay in it or opt out for a different solution.

Welcome to the party
Huh... I actually agree with some of those views.
Most people are Libertarians, they just don't know it yet.
@@noblephoenix6151 But I don't agree with some of their views though for example ending the public school system.
@@illuforce Most people think that way at first, but you should see what Spike Cohen, the Libertarian VP, has to say about it. With government education cost keeps going up, and literacy rates are going down. Many other things are messed up with the public school system, things that are solved with voluntary free market interaction as opposed to coercive government mandates. A can think of about ten good reasons off the top of my head why the free market option is better and the government mandates stifle generations of innocent children, but I'll spare you the rant lol.
I'm pretty sure it is a constitutional duty of Ohio to provide a good public education, but not all states have that. Librarians don't like the ideas of a standard education system. I just started college and some of the people I go to school with now are from private big city schools as there are more options in cities to find good private schools as public schools in the city often fail. Some of them claim to have been taking Calculus BC, Organic Chem and other classes that most public schools are unable to offer, because they don't have to compete for ways to provide a better education, or have not prepared enough students for those courses. That's why I like School choice and the CCP program in Ohio that funds 7-12 students to take college courses should a University accept them.

I clicked on this video in my feed just to see what the latest misrepresentations of libertarians are. I was pleasantly surprised to see how well and unbiased of a job you did in a crash course video.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it! :)
Same here. And I like that it stayed tight to the "what" and didn't muddy the message with whys and hows. (Whys and hows being both debatable and far to complex to present accurately in this format.) Also it stuck to the more pragmatic political libertarian rather than branching into philisophical ancap stuff.
Damn more people need to hear of this. It's a healthy mix of both left and right.
How isn’t Libertarianism far right? Literally, left = communism, right = free-market capitalism. When Trump made that tax cut, the left freaked out. How could that be in between left and right? Libertarians are very right wing.
@@crosh3301 Your bias is showing
@@lamaripiazza5226 Ok do you agree here? Libertarianism is center culturally left and far economically right. That’s what I meant by “far right”. I realize now that doesn’t make sense because far right generally means culturally right, so sorry about that. Also bias to what side?
@@crosh3301 Left= Communism?
@@crosh3301 Generally the Left as we call it tend to be Socialist on the extreme end and Keynesian, keynesian economics is right wing but it's more left than other economic schools since it involves the state in the economy and the Right tend to be Chicago or Austrian School of thought economically speaking.
I been a libertarian for 45 years, your video was very well done, thanks.
Nice! I’m glad it represented it well!
Wow I just realized I was not democratic this whole time I was actually libertarian. A lot of views you explained I agree with. Welp I know who is getting my vote coming up
Hell yes!
The most major shortcoming of the libertarian approach is that it has no way to deal with abuse of monopoly power and common resources by corporations.
@@Bertinator-nm9ld you mean like there is no way to control it now?
@@GregRoacho Nope. I mean even much worse than now. I mean no Google lawsuit now. I mean no Microsoft anti-trust lawsuit 20 years ago. I mean no breaking up Standard Oil. I mean no EPA preventing companies from just dumping waste into rivers. I mean no FDA to regulate food and keep poisonous substances out of our groceries (yes, this actually used to be a problem).
That is ironic because libertarians are conservative while democrats are liberal lol. Glad you found the party you support.
Out of all parties, Libertarians are the closest to protecting individual rights. This is why I'm a Libertarian!

ese es el truco que usan los libertarios, te pintan las cosas de cierta forma, pero cuando miras los detalles te das cuenta de que va en contra de los intereses de todos excepto los ricos.
I don't think a 5 minute video should be enough for you to vote for a party. As with every political ideology libertarianism has some pretty big drawbacks. You should read on the topic more and then decide.
@@nietzschesmustache9483 shhh
if he reads about what libertarians actually stand for he'll be cured from his libertarianism.
I personally feel that whenever anyone watches an educational video on Libertarianism, they realize the level of government tyranny that we are currently experiencing in the United States.
I'm an ancap now, used to be for the libertarian party but then I learned that even that is tyranny so I became an ancap ever since 2018.
Freemen don't ask for permission for freedom and that includes from the Libertarian Party.
@@anancapcat4221 I would argue that Anarcho-Capitalism (which I would say is my ideology) is basically libertarianism. Anarchism is social libertarianism, and capitalism is economic conservatism, so ANCAP pretty much is true definition libertarianism.

The reason why the Libertarian party isn't a major political power is because they're extremists... And to be fair, they're the definition of extremism...
@@ficsitinc.pioneer8695 Libertarians: diligently plotting to take over the world and leave you alone.
@@ficsitinc.pioneer8695 This country was built on the Libertarian philosophy. We are not extremists, that is what you statists/authoritarians are.
@@wavy9434 The British Empire was built of complete authoritarian rule by the king, look at it and almost every single country now... It's a poor excuse, if the nazi's said that Germany was built on authoritarian and complete rule, would that justify them coming to power? If the communists said that Russia was built on the backs of the peasants, does that justify them coming to power? No, it doesn't. The current libertarian party stands for the complete destruction of everything the united states has been building for the past almost 3 centuries, and it decides to preach their ideals without any backing in their word, If anybody would define an "extreme" party, it would be the libertarians. Considering that the "Moderate" part of the party wants to abolish hundreds of government programs that are supported by both major parties, I and many others would define that as "extremism" or Pure insanity. They deem the programs listed as failures, but yet they find the solution to completely abolish them, on the off chance that the "Private Sector" will offer better programs, and considering how our current healthcare with the private sector is going, no.
I’m a libertarian and I didn’t even realize it until recently. Because I know a libertarian and when I was talking about certain viewpoints like this. He explained to me that he’s libertarian. Then he said I definitely sound like one as well. I didn’t even know what a libertarian was until recently. Now I know I’m a libertarian!
This sounds like something the higher power in government don’t want.. that’s why they don’t shine so much light in this.
Exactly why these principles are what led to the declaration of independence. Any government which has a strong grasp of control on its population and economy reaps the rewards of utilizing that power for short term gain, especially for the private sector. What politician wouldn't want a tax funded six figure salary, or classy "Friends" that just so happen to know multimillionaire corporate CEO's and treat them to high life luxuries (Pretty much how lobbying works nowadays), and furthermore, enjoying all the benefits of creating government funded and regulated monopolies and then reaping all of the monetary rewards when people need to go into debt to buy their services and turn to the government for loans (Modern college education and healthcare). People in power like these luxuries, because even if they are clueless about what they are doing, they end up wrapped in clever pleasantries of doing better for the good of the country all while they are treated to high life privileges by their lobbyist friends, clouding their judgment to sway even most of the keener politicians.
@Steven S George Washington didn't like two political parties because the two parties would undermine eachother and would manipulate and subvert the power of the people for their own gain
🎯🎯🎯... understand this, and make no mistake, Washington loves to push the two-party system narrative on the general public. It is 3-fold, essentially: 1.) Keeps us busy 2.) Gives the guise of "free voter choice" for our favorite "political sports team" 3.) Allows the elites to seamlessly pass laws that we have absolutely no say in, and hardly ever hear about. You'll see Washington bantering back and forth, but in reality they love it, because it's a chess match that only they are allowed to touch the pieces in. Bilderberg Group, Rothschild, Trilateral Commission. If you're furthermore curious, research those three groups

For social policies they're fine. The economic approach of the libertarian philosophy is pretty naive and unworkable in the real world. It's kinda how communism looks great on paper, but has always failed miserably in the real world.
@@Bertinator-nm9ld
to be fair communism has never been tried in the real world. i agree that it wouldnt work but it has never been tried.
the word "communist" has been used by dictators to implement their dictatorships, but the essence of communism has never been tried.

Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it. :)
WHY IS THIS NOT THE OBVIOUS ANSWER TO deciding politics...
Because anyone outside the frame of the Democrats is labeled a racist/nazi. Just try to fly the Gadsden flag.
Because you're basically abolishing the government, and leaving it up to underfunded states to solve your problems.
Because with a private orientated school and insure system, the ones who can't afford a decent option are left with no alterative, I love most things of what these guys say but you can't think just in yourself, how are parents gonna pay for a insurance and schooling system when they can't even pay rent
@@vilkser5186 "with a private orientated school and insure system, the ones who can't afford a decent option are left with no alternative"
If someone asks for your help for paying for their medical and education expenses, would you help them pay? What if it costs, say, 20% of what you make in a year, or even more?
The "Government" is just an entity that forces you to do so, in a very inefficient way, plus you pay for their high salaries while they abuse their power.
Think about it. I'm not saying you shouldn't help people pay for their medical expenses, I think you should. But only if you want to.
@@dhidhi1000 But if you leave the question open, then no one would pay, no one likes to have less money and not receive a direct benefit from it. My propose is that instead of leaving it up to desicion because the state doest make the job that good, to implement a system in which tax collection is better in every way to asure not only the progress of the individual, but also the society.

And there is 0 reputable sources to support the claim that public schooling somehow brain washes kids into more liberal ideologies.

Reading these comments about the amount of people don’t know what this party is goes to show the amount of suppression the Democrats and Republicans put on this party. I believe if more people were educated on this party and their beliefs then it would quickly outgrow both parties
Exactly. I have been on the inside of many campaigns, in more than one party right up to being state convention delegate and elector nominee. The influence that the establishment major-party leaders have over the legacy media is insane. Even within the primary season strings are being pulled to exert substantial media bias for and against their own nominees, along with all sorts of backroom conspiring. Some really dirty pool goes on that Jow Blow voter is completely oblivious to.
The Libertarian party has been the only minor party of significant size since the 1980s, and during the '90s and '00s it was larger than all other minor parties combined; in membership, candidates and offices held. The Green Party within the USA has always been an empty shell, but the media gives them 10× the coverage of the LP as a distraction and to make the LP seem smaller than it is.
Time will tell if the public shift to internet information will change anything but the twitter files indicate that the new boss is same as the old boss.
I know the legacy channels are shrinking but of people register to vote old people vote at an 80-90% rate while young folk vote at a 10-15% rate.
Guess im Libertarian lol Agreed to everything. I am from Ottawa Canada!

I’ve always been in the middle and felt uncomfortable claiming Repub or Demo fully. Watching this video pretty much plants me right where I’ve been comfortable since I can remember. Pretty much agree with everything here. Besides a couple small details. Like gun control. I believe everyone should be able to arm and protect themselves but only responsible people who prove mentally capable without a horrible criminal record. So I’m very middle man on gun control. Also I don’t know how I feel about closing public schools for basically home schooling. I don’t even have kids yet and I’m a little iffy on that concept. But 95% of everything else I’m all for.
100% feel you. Libertarian party definitely appealed to me more than the other two major parties. I’ll be voting gold this election hoping I can help push for change.
Hi! I'm involved on the Argentina's Lib. Party and in terms of education we propose turning our public education into a voucher-based system where the government provides the funds for education and the free market manages the schools. I'm not sure if the USA is already using that funding system, but if it's not I recommend you to search about Milton Friedman's voucher system. Have a nice day! 😊
You could just replace it with school vouchers.
@@enzodavino8571 The us has private schools, which consumers typically pay for. We also have charter schools, which sounds like what you're describing
Indeed agreed on the gun control. Everyone should have the right to arm themselves. Then don't forget our policy of Do no harm. So if someone has harmed someone with a gun, then Libertarians hold the desire that the person should never have a gun again. Many, many people have firearms and have never shot anybody. They shouldn't lose their rights because of a few bad apples.
Great video. As usual, very educational. But I was amazed when you said it was an introduction on the the libertarian views. I kinda feel like you've explained the whole thing :D
Yeah, they did a great job.
Nonetheless, there is a ton of background in arguments for libertarian views, as well as some variation in how to implement them. Some libertarians are in favor of some compulsory taxation, some are actively pro-life, some support a voucher system for schooling while others want to go full free market. Just like any political philosophy, there is a lot more depth and nuance than can get covered in one video.
Wow! An actual unbiased and fair representation of the Libertarian Party. Kudos!
You’re welcome! ☺️
Thanks for doing this video!
Thank you this was very informative.
Honestly, before now I was telling everyone I was Republican because I didn't know anything about this party. But I've always had certain beliefs that align with both sides. And Libertarian is sort of a nice middleground between Democrat and Republican that I feel could be really popular if the nation wasn't so divided by the media.
Lables of left vs right are constructed by the republican and democrats to divide us on party lines. Real political positions are more nuanced. I don't think I will ever live to see a Libertarian president, but local offices with Libertarian incumbents could make real change.
This is excellent insight! As I always reevaluate my own political world views, I feel like I have a much more sufficient idea of how to move forward in life.
Thank you for the information. I learned a lot!
Thanks! I sure learned a lot in making it. :)

Ismael Nehme how does a government system without taxes work? And how is an education system where people have to pay to receive an education fair to poorer families?
@@adr77510 First of all, we don't necessarily believe that you should have to pay to receive an education, but poorer families can always home-school their children. In fact, children who are home schooled end up doing better than children who are taught by public schools in a multitude of areas. And second, the Government would receive funding from donations from civilians, and would need much less money since the majority of their programs would be removed
@@ismaelnehme379 Here's a few examples of why these suggestions are bad...
Example: "It is. Instead of the one size fits all approach of public schools, private schools enable different options for people depending on their circumstances" No, it's quite the opposite my friend. IF we had a private school only system, how would kids who can't afford to attend receive an education? And even IF some private schools decided to be free, how would they receive funding? They can't get anything through federal grants, and the people they're serving don't have the money to give, so who is paying? And even IF somebody was able to pay Billions (If not trillions) of dollars for this operation, they'd instantly be hit with low quality teachers for such a lack of funding. High quality teachers would be hired at private schools, why? because private schools have more money! Why do private schools have more money? Because the people they're serving have money!
So, it's one big cycle... Poor family ---> Poor School ----> Poor education ----> Poor jobs -----> and repeat! How likely is it for people to get out of that cycle? They don't have the resources, time, money, or education to do so! It's incredible about how You believe this is the best option.
Example 2: "We actually can observe that there was much more charitable giving and things like mutual aid groups before the government started getting involved." The government started getting involved in the 1800's! Today? It's massively different! A LOT of non profits have large portions of their budget raised via federal, state, and local grants! For example, If you wanted to run a non profit for afterschool educational programing, you'd be given thousands of dollars worth of food grants that covers almost ALL of your food needs, that's thousands of dollars worth of food given to you for free by the government! Now take that and a third of their budget away, They're almost in debt because of that, and now they're forced to raise prices, hire cheaper and lower quality teachers, and cut major parts of their programming! Why? "bEcAuSe ThE gOveRnMeNt ShOuLd StAy OuT oF pEoPlE's lIvEs" It's incredible about how ignorant you are... I'm sorry if I'm coming off as a major dickwad and asshole, however your ideals and beliefs are just... retarded!
Example 3: "We don't expect them to choose morals over profits. We expect them to choose profits. The problem right now is that there's no risk for the private sector because the government continuously bails them out and subsidizes them, so they just keep on doing bad practices." But here's the thing, IF we don't bail them out, then we have economic crises, I don't like bailing people on wallstreet either, However it's a SHIT TON worse if you don't. Even if they lose the "No risk" they're still willing to take them, so yet again, people are stuck with their health insurance being glued to the hands of gamblers.
Example 4: "Open competition" Are you serious? This right here is the problem! You are not seeing the effect this "competition" is having! Take Boone country WV, they estimate out of the 100,000 citizens living there, 10 thousand of them have active opioid addiction. Because of this competition, drug companies don't care about the aftereffect of their actions, who is going to hold them responsible? A private charity group? Nobody, no private company has stepped in during this situation, in fact it's the federal, state, and local government who is standing up to those companies that citizens alone cannot fight! Because of your so called "Competition" people are suffering, Pharma companies are choosing profit over morals, and that is completely terrible considering human LIVES are on the line here! It's... Crazy how you think companies won't take risks... because if there is a profit involved, they will take risks.
Example 5: "They're not putting your needs before profit. Covering you is putting profit first." For them, covering my pre-existing condition isn't profit, me getting skin care at a doctor I like isn't profit, Going to a hospital that isn't covered by the insurance isn't profit, so when I or a family member is injured, and I don't have the financials to pay for it, they just cut me off? ... ... ... Whatever rich people world you live in, you need to slap yourself awake to reality... Most people don't have the kind of money to pay that shit, and when their insurance is refusing to pay because "That's not a hospital under the coverage plan" or "That's not a life saving surgeon under the coverage plan" I now have to go into debt, making my life now miserable.
Example 6& final: "Except the housing bubble that led to what happened in 2008 was fueled by artificially low interest rates from the Federal Reserve and government housing incentives." It happened because people from the private sector, took a gamble that wasn't prohibited by the federal government. So, now we just give up all regulation to try and prevent that from happening again? We just let people gamble with billions of American dollars and interests? Whoopsie daisy, I just caused an economic crisis! Whoopsy! The whole libertarian movement really sounds like "I dOn'T wAnT mY taXeS gOiNg ThErE" and quite frankly it's retarded, grow up, pay taxes, and ask what you can do for your country, and the country will ask what can it do for you.
@@ficsitinc.pioneer8695 Example 1 response: First of all, public schools are already greatly dependent on money. It's a truth of life in general that the more money you have, the better quality of life you will have, and that's going to be true no matter what. Satistically speaking, the poorer you are, the less likely you are to have a good education. This is for several reasons: 1: People in poor households tend to have less stable families, as in their families are more likely to be ridden by things such as domestic violence, single and teen parenthood, trauma, drug abuse, and poor health among other things. 2: Their families tend to have fewer financial resources. 3: Their parents tend to have less education. 4. Many schools require you to be in the same district in order to enroll in their school, so if you live in a poorer district you will usually have access to worse schools and vice versa.
Source: www.brookings.edu/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/0319_school_disadvantage_isaacs.pdf
So the richer you are, the better quality your education is going to be, whether you are in a Libertarian society or not. A Libertarian society does not change that, because there isn't much you can do to change that as it is a general rule of life. That's the problem with ideologies such as communism, they try to completely eliminate inequality rather than improve quality of life for all, when inequality is simply a part of life and thus make it much much worse. But what a Libertarian society does is offer more opprotunies to have a succesful carrer without a public education. Attenting school is required for all people before the age of six until you are sixteen, and because of this the vast majority of jobs require you to have an education in order to apply. But if only some people can attend a private school, jobs will have no choice but to accomidate for other types of education. This could include homeschooling, apprenticeships, internships, mentorships, and self education among others. You assume that school is the only valid way to gain an education, but that's simply not true. Not only do homeschooled children tend to do better on standardized tests and get better jobs (source: www.businessinsider.com/reasons-homeschooling-is-the-smartest-way-to-teach-kids-today-2018-1#students-dont-deal-with-cliques-or-bullying-4), but before public education became so ubiquitous, apprenticeships and mentorships were how people learned skills and trades.
Second, I never said that private schools should be free. There is no such thing as a free lunch, after all. In fact, one of the goals of a Libertarian society is for some private schools to fail and shut down from lack of funding, so that the good schools will succeed and the bad schools will fail. One of the problems with a public school system is that since the government will always fund public schools unless something goes horribly horribly wrong, the people who run said public schools don't have as much of an incentive to make the best education as possible. The principals and the superindentants care in public schools, but the teachers not as much. In a Libertarian society, the teachers will care much more, because their paycheck literally depends on the schoold doing a good job. If the students are poorly educated by the school, the parents will take their kids to another school and tell the other parents how bad their school is, thus going out of buisness. So the teachers have no choice but to care much more about how well they are teaching students. You would be amazed how little some teachers give a shit in public schools because they know their job will probably be fine and since they are on a fixed income, their paycheck wont suffer. The same goes for the rest of the staff.
Example 2 response:
First of all, I never said that there was a lot of charitable donations before the Government became involved. That's impossible because as you said, the Government had been involved in charity for a very long time.
Second of all, this awesome video explains my viewpoint on charity much better than I could (th-cam.com/video/YsRH3xHJi1M/w-d-xo.html), but to summarize it:
Government spending on public welfare is not even close to as effective as you said it was. The government spends around a trillion dollars every year on charity, but seventy percent of that money is spent on maintaining the buerocracies of the government systems of welfare, while 30 percent of it is spent on actual charity(source: www.theadvocates.org/2013/06/effective-government-welfare-compared-private-charity/), making a total of around 300 billion spent on actual charity. Meanwhile, private charities and private individuals give around 390 billion dollars per year on charity, and this is because 70 percent of donations to charities are given to actual charity while only 30 percent is spent on infrastucture and employees (source: www.theadvocates.org/2013/06/effective-government-welfare-compared-private-charity/). So in essence, the part of your tax dollars that are meant for charity are mostly not going to be used for actual charity. If said taxes weren't taken from people, people would have more money to give out to charities, thus the impoverished would benifit even more. And no matter what you say, it is an indesputible fact that being wealthier makes you more charitable as a person (source: econofact.org/are-rich-people-really-less-generous#:~:text=When%20a%20household%27s%20income%20or,give%20and%20donate%20more%20money.&text=Similar%20to%20above%2C%20when%20households,donate%20and%20give%20more%20money.)
Side note: no offense dude, but you're completely strawmanning Libertarian arguments. I never said that the government should just "stay out of people's lives." Not all Libertarians think the same way, in fact we are constantly at odds with how much the government should be involved in civillian life. I personally think that the government should be able to break up monopolies, punish corporations for misleading the public, provide things like plumbing and street cleaning (services that aren't covered by public incentive), protect our constitutional rights, provide protection for those unable to defend themselves, and other things, but in general I believe the government should have a very limited involvment in people's lives. Plenty of Libertarians agree with me, and plenty dont.
Example 3 response: Bailing corporations out just delays the inevitable. When Obama bailed out failing wall-street companies, he put our country in a ludicrious amount of debt in order to do so, and that debt has been steadily increasing because our Government has been taxing people to death and wasting our money on government agencies that don't work, therefore killing what little savings we had through inflation. So people get poorer and poorer, the government gets in worse and worse debt, and eventually we will fall into a depression much worse than the 2008 recession all because Obama wanted to save face instead of letting the recession take its course.
Example 4 response: First of all, do you realize that the drug crisis in America is almost entirely the fault of the Government? Drugs are not a normal consumer product, in that no matter how many restrictions and bans you put against them, they will always be consumed. The prohibition should have taught our country that, but Nixon decided to make the moronic move of declaring drugs public enemy number one. The U.S has spent 1 trillion dollars over the past 40 years on the drug war, and thing have only gotten worse (source: www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna37134751), because the government has been imprisoning people for minor drug charges and placing it on their permanent record, therefore making it much harder for them to get a job and re-enter civil society, making them even more likely to do drugs once they leave prison rather than stop.
Second of all, there's a reason pharmaceutical companies are charging so much for medication. In 1965, the government passed the Medicare and Medicaid acts, which are in my opinion an absolute plauge on the health of our nation for several reasons: Reason 1: The Government took over the training of new Doctors, and in 1997 they limited the amount of doctors that could be trained at a time to 110 thousand, and they stopped letting foreign doctors work in the U.S without undergoing this training (source: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2690145/). This made doctors in America scarce, making the supply of healthcare less, while the demand for healthcare increase because the population increased because everyone needs and wants healthcare. And when supply decreases and demand increases, price increases. Reason 2: Medicare and Medicaid made poorer families more dependent on the government for healthcare rather than private charities. I already explained in detail why charities are more effective than the government, so I'll spare you the details. And the government has been steadily increasing taxes for Medicare and Medicaid, therefore wasting our tax money on an inneficient government agency.
Example 5 and 6: I'm not gonna respond to these last two, because it seems to me like you're more interested in insulting my viewpoint, calling me and every other Libertarian immature, and reveling in how intellectually superior you are to me rather than actually try to prove me wrong. If you retype those last two and actually try to make a point against Libertarian policies, I will glady respond to them.

As a lifelong Libertarian, I appreciate that you’re providing a simple explanation of our views so that people who haven’t really looked into it can realize that they are libertarians at heart.
great explanation!!! im a libertarian and you did a great job covering virtually every subject.
Awesome, thank you!
I found out I was libertarian a few years ago when I took a test to find out what party I was...since nothing resonated with me. Once I educated myself about the Libertarian Party I knew without a doubt, its 1000% what I believe in. We need a Libertarian President by 2024. It's time for a real change.
Not just president. Get libertarians in the senate, house of representatives, congress and governors.

I've been a Libertarian since the day I was born. I agree with everything that was explained here 110% except for the last part about immigration.
No more people should be allowed to move here from other countries, ever. It's gotten far too out of control since the 70's. Let up to 1 million visit for up to 3 months at a time while wearing an ankle monitor or similar tracking device and have at least a one year waiting period between visits.

This is a pretty great starting place for anyone wanting a basic understanding of Libertarianism.
Mises, Hayek, Rothbard, Hoppe, and I guess Ayn Rand if you really want to are great places to look after this for a more in depth look on the deeper economic and political theory that drives the ideology, and Mentiswave is a good look if you're more into the internet "debunking" type of content
Great videos!!

Hey buddy you do great videos.
I am an Independent however I can relate to a lot of things with the Libertarians, I don't agree with everything however there is a lot I can agree with
As a long time libertarian, I support this message.
I love this Video is it possible if you can do more of these that address other topics and issues
Thanks! Do you mean more videos on the views of the Libertarian party? I do have a large library of views of other political parties you can check out.

Phenomenal video. I'm a dues paying member of the libertarian party and use this easy to digest video to help some people understand the fundamental ideas. My wife identifies closer to the 🕊️"Peace and freedom" party. Could you provide a video on that soon?
Very informative
Glad it was helpful!
OK I found a party I can identify with I’m definitely a libertarian. The party of common sense.
And the party of ignoring the inherent problems of pure capitalism. Problems like like monopolies, market failures, and the tragedy of the commons.
@@Bertinator-nm9ld Monopolies don't exist in a free market system...technically they can, but only for a short time. Sooner or later there's always competition because everyone wants in on that market. That's why Amazon exists and Sears/Kmart don't any longer. The Tragedy of the Commons is characteristic of public ownership (socialism) not private ownership. When people own things, they take care of them to protect their investment. Capitalism is freedom.
@@_P_M_ What prevents a monopoly from remaining on top if the barrier to entry is high? I don't exactly see a lot of Amazon direct competitors who can throw their weight around at the moment.
The tragedy of the commons also occurs when the people who cause the harm and the people who feel the effects are different people. That certainly exists in both socialism and capitalism.
@@Bertinator-nm9ld Ok... can you just name a monopoly in nowadays?
@@rodehibardockz Did I not already mention Amazon? What about Google? What real competitor do either of those companies have? Or TH-cam, for that matter? I guess TH-cam is a subsidiary of Google, but still.
Wow… America needs this!
You should start a news channel. It would be the only one I watch, straight facts no emotions one way or the other you let me formulate my own opinion. Thank you sir.
You've explained pretty well what Libertarianism is truly about.
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed the explanation - Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼
There’s a very hands off approach. I would like to know more of how the feee market works in their idea. Will the free market free up parents to afford education for their kids? What protections would be in schools to avoid extreme ideologies and drastic splits in society? I assume when parents vote with their dollar this balances itself out?
I would like to see some sort of blockchain voting system where the people get more say over critical issues like say a hydro damn construction, or other industries that will have huge impacts on the environment. If a party like this has these hands off approach, how do we protect the environment and natural resources. I know the current system is pretty much self serving now where big government deals slant towards bug business where environment often suffers and middle class and/or minority groups get displaced or forgotten.
"Will the free market free up parents to afford education for their kids?" - Market competition is what pushes entrepreneurs to provide products and services at the highest quality possible, as cheap as possible. If they don't do that, they cannot compete. Freeing the education market would make private schooling much more affordable and better.
"What protections would be in schools to avoid extreme ideologies and drastic splits in society?" - That protection is called THE PARENTS. Don't like what they are teaching your kids in school? Move them to a different one.
"how do we protect the environment and natural resources." - An individual or group of individuals who own, say, a beach, have a higher incentive to take care of it, than hoping that the government will take care of it.
do the green party and construction party
Thanks! The Green Party is definitely on the list. Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll have to look into the Construction party. That’s one I don’t know anything about.
@@IllustratetoEducate the constitution party is about who modern America has mostly ferthered itself away from the constitution and that government has interfeared with Americans lives and its only meant to protect the people and the constitution.
they want low taxes.
they want no regulations to bissnuss.
they want no welfare what so ever.
they are anti-gun control.
they want the wall.
they want no government health care.
they dont believe in climite change.
they support social security.
they want the system and laws based on christan values so there anti-abortion, pro-death penalty, pro-war on drugs, homophobic and transphobic.
and they want states to have more individual power.
so basically its the tea party. still do research I may be wrong on some things. reply when you can.

@Down with Corporate Amerika you’re right. Changed my mind.
Ron Swanson from parks and recreation got me thinking about this
Had no idea what Libertarian's views were figured I'd watch a video to get an idea can't say I agree with a lot of their views/ideas but it was a good video none the less its a pretty interesting party overall definitely a lot different from the current two biggest parties, the thing about legalizing victimless crimes was very interesting and was one of the few things I actually agreed with.
I've always been a libertarian in my thinking, and I couldn't help but wonder about the world where we forbid or ridicule other people's actions even when they don't cause any disadvantage. I also tend to support libertarian ideas. However, I believe that a major challenge is how to eliminate disparities while preserving individual freedom.
I think a lot of people will agree with these views and beliefs, Not just Republicans.
Besides the legalization of all drugs, no one has to pay taxes, and people having to pay to go to school. I don’t understand how anyone thinks these are good ideas
@@adr77510 these are the extremists who believe this
No dislike? This guy is god
Lol thanks! 😂
Thanks for the info. The frame work is great, however I would like them to expand on social nets.
It is incredibly easy to explain the social nets of the libertarian party... there aren't any. If your poor, then they believe you can work your way out of it. They also don't believe in a minimum wage, so no, you aren't guaranteed $7 an hour. In fact, you likely won't make more than the bare minimum that you can be paid. Hell, if a business can get away with paying you with their products, they will do that.
The libertarian party argues that if you don't like your job, you are free to quit and find a new one, and the only people working at these low end jobs are those who allow themselves to do it.
@@drybrawler about the minimum wage statement you made.
business is paid by -> products, employees get paid by -> businesses. if businesses lower the wages of the worker then they would be effectively shooting themselves in the foot because the employee couldn't buy the product the business itself is run by. So what's so awesome about this is that nobody wants to work as a septic cleaner and a garbage man but the jobs still need to get done so guess what happens? supply and demand, the demand pays higher wages to get people to do the dirty work, and the people who don't want to do the dirty work just make less money. Everyone's happy.
Ya, and yet employers regularly pay their employees the lowest wage they are legally allowed and nothing more. Arguing otherwise is just delusional.
Some Libertarians favor a basic income guarantee of some kind to replace our wasteful, ineffective, dehumanizing welfare system. Other Libertarians would rely on private charitable efforts alone. But considering all the ways governments screw over the working poor and disadvantaged, Libertarians could put a significant dent in poverty simply by removing existing state privileges and reforming the tax system.
Adding this to my Libertarian playlist
Thank you! 🙏🏼
I really enjoyed that video! I clicked on to see why is it so hard for people to vote Libertarian. The switch to Libertarian was easy for me. Anyways, great video
One reason it's hard for me to vote libertarian is that they focus so much on governmental abuse of power that they completely ignore the problems of corporate abuse if power. How do libertarians prevent monopolies from abusing their power or companies from polluting rivers and whatnot?
@@Bertinator-nm9ld they definitely need to do something about the Monopolies! Disney is trying to buy everything
@@droach5241 Yeah, and Disney is far from the worst. Unfortunately, I've never heard a libertarian method for dealing with monopolies, and not because I haven't asked.
@@Bertinator-nm9ld Monopolies would have a harder time forming with out lobbying. They normally get rid of competition by forcing politicians to pass laws which hurt small businesses. Anti trust laws are also still in place under a libertarian society. They still have a government just a really small one.
@@francogiobbimontesanti3826 The American Libertarian party certainly doesn't seem to endorse strong antitrust laws or anything like that. They're all about taking restrictions off of businesses. I don't think I've heard of them pushing for a single stronger piece of legislation in that regard. It's a major reason why the American Libertarian party has left a bad taste in my mouth. They seem very much in favor of completely unrestricted capitalism.
If you watched this video and find that you agree with the Libertarian Party platform more than your current political party, I invite you to vote based on your principles rather than party affiliation.
@Libertarian American it depends on what you define a fetus. Some define it as a clump of cells, others define it as a human being at any stage of pregnancy. Because there is no universal consensus, the LP leave it up to the individual to define abortion as being murder or not.
The act of an individual or group of individuals crossing a line on a map is not a violation of the NAP. What is a violation of the NAP is if that individual goes and commits crimes that directly affect the safety or property of others.
I'm a Libertarian, but I have different perspectives about healthcare and education. I agree that would be good to have them private whenever you think about keeping control and providing better services, because, in a business concept, they would lose their clients if they don't provide. But in a capitalist reality, we have people with more money than others... this means, more opportunities and easy access to better services. In my opinion, those sectors should be privatized but powered by govt money, making sure people with low or no income are getting a good quality of treatment as well.
And about education, depraving the kid of a good education, is like cutting a bird's wings. It's not fair to have a society that 2 people can't start in the same level. A short gap maybe, whenever a wealthy person wants to go beyond and pay for a private school.
Actually, redistributing taxes to those sectors, while you clean up all the others. The runners of the hospitals and schools are responsible to keep an open book about expenses and inform the county what are the future plans and investments, for the people to understand what is going on with their money.
Also, should have a bidding/elections every couple years for the status of runner of the institution. People from the county will vote, to instigate better services or to get rid of inefficient ones.
I agree with most of this, exept the education, gun laws, and drugs. If you want society to progress you have to teach the future generations, more gun regulations, and stop the legal use of drugs for people under the age of 25.
I see I’m more libertarian except on the issue of abortion
Because it's contentious, most Libertarians think it should be left up to the states to decide. Also, Libertarians think that making things illegal doesn't make them disappear. It can cause adverse consequences, such as the increased of black market or coat hanger abortions. It's a complicated philosophical topic. I'm Libertarian, very anti-abortion, but still think it should be legal due to the more problems created by government "solutions". I endorse voluntary free market solutions, such as adoption and clinics to help struggling mothers to be (as opposed to prison and fines at taxpayer expense).
Noble Phoenix true that. But it should definitely be shunned by society and people should be aware of what they are really doing by being pro choice
