I sometimes wonder if we'll ever have a U.S. president who just does the right things, the best things for humanity, and still kicks ass most of the time. I mean, is that even possible, or have we just romanticized history? Would a Libertarian president push for something like this, or would he back down due to him infringing upon the liberty of oil industry workers?
I guess a libertarian pres probably wouldn't; they aren't for forced governmental intervention (even when it's in all of our best interests) -- that's a crazy thing about extreme libertarianism I just realized: in many cases what they're fighting so hard for is the freedom and uninterrupted right for humans to be ignorant and do what's worse for the majority, but financially beneficial for the few.
Republicans and Libertarians seem to be the least compassionate people, and most selfish. BUT IT'S DOG EAT DOG OUT THERE GUYS, AMIRITE?
