Never really thought libertarians were left leaning socially, always thought they were centralists or indifferent. Good to know.
I am definitely fiscally conservative and believe the best tax is a unit tax on land, capital and consuption. Not sure about the fairness of a progressive income tax, especially with the complicated tax codes, taxing labour isnt efficient. What's your take on taxes?

That's a good point, and I agree.
Taxing income is a travesty... In the 10-20% it might still be agreeable, but in the 40-50% range? They're taking half of our income, and then taxing the rest through VAT/Consumption tax...
In antiquity, even slaves were allowed to keep more than half of what they made for themselves... Taking half or more would have surely lead to slave revolts... It's simply unconscionable to dominate another man to such an extent...
That's what made the slavery of Africans so abominable... They were seen as property... But that's we all are today... State property...
Need to fight this injustice with our minds
