>>216 you don't even know what you're saying. What libertarians oppose is COERCION. Like when governments coerce people to pay taxes (or surreptitiously tax through inflation) for the purpose of funding wars. If a socialist-like arrangement occured without coercion from the government or any other group, then that would be fine to libertarians.
The facts are that some of the Bush administration's policies are socialist. That does not make the republicans left-wing. Left-wing and right-wing are comparitive terms. If the republicans changed nothing and the democrats become extremely right-wing then the republicans would, by staying where they were, become left-wing.
Anyway, libertarians are neither left-wing nor right-wing, they believe in personal liberty. Any individual can live their life left-wing or right-wing under a libertarian government.
