...it's was to difficult to imposed libertarian, some people will abused this so called free will, people would be uncontrolled and crimes may rise. However Liberal could also be risk if the people who handle the government of a certain nations are the one who abuse their government activity, Using their position to steal money to the public.

Libertarian's are far more against raising taxes as a solution for all ills.

There is a huge difference between liberals and libertarians. Basically, libertarians believe government should be extremely small, and that individuals should be left to there own devices, with little help from government. They believe the free market will ultimate control things most fairly. They think the only services the government should provide are to for infrastructure (roads, bridges, ports, etc...) and the common defense (military, police, prisons, national security).

Liberals believe that government is not evil, and can do plenty of good, and most times can provide much better and more effecient services than the free market does. They believe that we as a society have an obligation to help the least of us.

Liberal and libertarians do agree that government should not interfere with peoples privacy and liberty, like Bush has with unwarranted wiretapping, anti-abortion stance, torture, and denials of habeus corpus rights.

Good question Lizzy
Just remember To Thine Own Self Be True. In order to make an educated decision you should investigate. So many have their head in the sand and believe everything they hear in the so called news or read in leftist newspapers. Believe me their is help out their and you just have to ask.
As far as taxes go I am anti IRS and federal income tax. The 16th amendment (95 years old) is a curse on the citizens of the United States. Check out the FairTax - http://www.ilfairtax.org
Hope this helps you make your own decision.
