I may have misspelled Kensey/Kinsey/Keneysian....whatev.... but it basically means the free market on it's own is inadequate.... micro vs. macro economics.
I am trying to learn about Libertarian economics.

It is John Maynard Keynes as I recall.

Please describe Libertarian economics on its own wiithout referring to Republicans.
Who the Hades do you think you are?

Your going to ask my opinion then set the standard by which I reply? Take a hike. Then you want me to relate it to Regan? Ahem...

The rest of what you're saying... why not just make your point, because the coadie train stinks and I don't care to ride.

I thought you were Libertarian. No need to get touchy when you have a little inquiry what they adopt for economic models.

Re: Libertarian economics.

I've developed an affinity toward libertarianism in recent years, and before I classified myself as an independent. I've never completely agreed with the Republican party/platform, and I agree with nearly nothing on the Democrats' side.

What I like about Libertarian views is that they are intended to protect personal freedom and limit government encroachment. There are advantages and disadvantages to that.

I would like to talk about this, but I'm going to have to wait a little while. My kids have music lessons this afternoon, and then I have to go buy my husband a birthday gift - he's turning 40 tomorrow. He really already received his *big gift* (a motorcycle), but I think he'll be disappointed if we don't celebrate at least a little bit tomorrow.

You are not a Democrat. They don't get into motorcycles. Motorcycles mean you have too much money and not enough tax.

A little inquiry? I think you thought you were Perry Mason for a second.

You are asking questions that you are already posturing to know. You look ridiculous.

Go play by yourself.

That's how I am. I didn't sit in an economic theory class, spend 10 years dissecting all the models and decide which one would work best. The more I heard from Libertarians, the more is resonated with what I perceived was the right approach of government.

I may be further along that road than you -- because like other Libertarians, I also am comfortable taking up social positions that I think better support smaller government as well.

What is my economics position?

You are libertarian because you LIKE libertarian people?

The big pain issue today is the economy and I patiently await your giving me some sketch of what Libertarians offer so to see if it may work better.
