would you be a progressive or libertarian?

Update:

Libertarianism is a set of related political philosophies that uphold liberty as the highest political end.[1][2] This includes emphasis on the primacy of individual liberty[3], political freedom, and voluntary association. Libertarians advocate a society with a greatly reduced state or no state at all.[4]

In this party nobody telling you what to do

Progressive is like the most democratic you can be and libertarian is the most republican you can be without being one

    I don't need a government teet so why on earth would I want to be a progressive? So I can get the government to force me to give to others? I don't want to be forced to do anything. I vote according to my own beliefs, not the beliefs of the group. If people vote the beliefs of the group, they are not voting.

    Libertarian? Those people are all nutjobs living in a dreamworld.

    They cling to their weirdo theories despite reality proving their theories are all bullsh*t.

    Canada is the opposite of everything that the cult of libertarianism preaches.

    If libertarian theories were right, Canada would be a 3rd World train-wreck of a nation.

    Only it's not. One look at recent media headlines proves that beyond all doubt:

    'The most prosperous nation in the Americas, Canada ranks first in personal freedom'

    'Canada: Richer than America and more economically powerful than Europe'

    'Canada first and only G7 country to recover all jobs lost during recession'

    'Canada to lead G7 nations in average growth for next 50 years: OECD'

    Like the saying goes: Nothing succeeds like success.

    That's why only gullible kids and stupid loser adults are libertarians.
