Political position

[Aerin-Sol]

/me tries to figure out the difference between a "liberal" libertarian and a "conservative" libertarian.

Generally, it's what it sounds like: liberal libertarians hold liberal views without feeling the government should enforce them, and conservative libertarians hold conservative views without feeling the government should enforce them. For example, a liberal libertarian might support gay marriage and a conservative might oppose it but both would argue that the government shouldn't be involved with marriage period.

Regardless, though, the view on how government should be run is the same, which is what really matters. On the other hand, there's a serious difference between liberal and conservative democrats/republicans because of the sheer size of those parties.
