Should the government raise taxes on the rich?
I hate government and would sooner abolish it than implement a single. one of your mindless programs
That sounds to me like a pretty good way of saying "I have no real rebuttal against it, I just don't like it because I hate the idea of a healthy society that provides for each other."
Also, do you actually mean "the government" or "the state"..? Because those are two different concepts. A government is merely whatever organized means a society uses to make decisions, so if you're anti-government, then how do you believe societal decisions should be made? Violent free for all?

No, I believe the government should defend our rights, which means stopping crimes, but do nothing more, because more than that is a crime.

Oh so you are also blatantly Theocratic? So you are only economically libertarian, yet politically you are authoritarian. Got it, I figured as much...
@TruthHurts10110mos10MO
I am NOT authoritarian, if you wish to practice another religion you may. Just do not break the laws that keep everyone safe. I'm not forcing everyone to be a Christian, I'm getting ideas for laws like "thou shalt not murder" from the Bible.
