Mm, are the Libertarians for healthcare?

No, that's a nasty big government program. We only like private health insurance.

EDIT: It seems there are factions in the libertarian party...

Considering this is mock election is based out of America they are the stance of socialists, however, yeah they're not supported by every socialist just like not every conservative supports putting references to God on currency, statues, etc.

Yes! Finally Paugers said something I can agree with entirely lol. I didn't post strictly "Socialist" viewpoints that adhere to say, Lenin or Marx. I'm going for the more modernised outlook and general left-wing agreement that people have. The points I made were general, and I'm not trying to define the party. I'm just giving a very general outlook on the type of socialism at least I believe in. It's not too extreme, and yes it is modelled far more off of social-democrats like Sanders & Corbyn than traditional socialists. Albeit, it is the "mainstream socialism" if you want to call it that.

@Xapy, basic healthcare means you don't pay for check-ups, but you should still be paying for most of the price for things like medicine.

I still hate most ineffective public spending.

The Democratic Party urges all members of the left to join the Democratic Party under a united banner.
If we stand divided, we cannot win.
If we stand united, we can secure a more liberal future.

^ why dont the democrats join our party instead, we are bigger

C'mon, join Free Group. We were voted as number 1 pick amongst those under 18 (probably since we are for making school by choice: a student that doesn't want to learn is wasting everyone's money, makes it worse for other students, and won't really learn).

Libertarians control all the clay. ^^

Under that scenario, Libertarians actually win, because:

Under the rules of the electoral college, someone needs 270 electoral votes to win, or a majority. Since nobody gets this, the election goes to the house of representatives, where each state gets one vote. Here is the breakdown of who won the most states:

Socialists: 10 states

Republicans: 11 states

Libertarians: 22 states

Democrats: 7 states

So, It's looking good for libertarians :)

What are any of these numbers based on?

Members don't dictate votes.

There were like 3 libertarian nominees but only 2 Democrat nominees, i think democrats have a better chance.

No, I read the numbers. Based on your numbers, and the rules of the electoral college, the Libertarians win.

Did you read anything I said?

Improve relations with Iran and try to bring peace to region.

How? Why? They call us the Great Satan and profess to destroy our only true ally in the region. They sponsor terrorism around the world. If we attempt to cozy up with them, they will still hate us and Israel, and it will only destroy our relationships with the Saudis and other Arab states. This policy is stupid.

Free Group USA key points:
*Ensuring the security of your life and stuff, and keeping the other things to a minimum. How will this be done?

*Free healthcare.
*Cutting other public spending (ridding welfare, making school by-choice)
*Cutting military spending by 100% (they've got so over funded over the years, they can go by for at least a few years without money), and cutting all military branches except shore watch and air defence.
*Being lax (stricter than now, but still lax) on guns and drugs.

They call us the Great Satan and profess to destroy our only true ally in the region. They sponsor terrorism around the world.

America is a far worse curse than Iran in the Middle East. America's been bullying Iran since the 1970s, when they broke free of American controle (America still holds the Iranian pretender to the throne, he lives upon the Atlantic Ocean, I think) and supported the polarisation of the traditional Sunni Arabic kingdoms (Arabia) against the new Shia government, and America sponsors far more terrorism. It wasn't as heck for sure the Iranian special forces that funded Mashriq, it was the Americans (and likely still are through Gulf accounts). Being friendlier to Iran would be a good idea, especially if they ever develop atom bombs.

Libertarian besides the drug part...

Libertarians (in America, real life, anyway) want to disband government healthcare, and they do support legalising drugs, though.

implement stricter measures on antibioics to prevent a possible superbug resistant to antibiotics

+, not enough folk realise what a big problem this is. Antibiot are way overused. And this problem is with some pesticides, too, but who cares about food, there're plenty in America.

You can't get better relations with a country who considers us the Great Satan. It just won't work.
