haha And most of libertarian arguments can't be debated, Simply because they are right.

@rainbowfirewave i hear ya, but it doesn't stop it. be aware on the road. if you can avoid driving during 1am-3am that's probably the best thing anyone can do. if you have to drive at that time, just be alert and maybe take different routes that go out of the way of bars... just saying. checkpoints are horrible... besides, read the 4th amendment.

50 control freaks dislike this.

Only thing I don't agree with is one of the passing questions at the end. "Sobriety checkpoints?" I think those are very good because drunk drivers hurt non-consenting adults all the time.

I could've done without the background music. Made it creepy...

@ditendo That's funny. Friedman died years ago but the drug war is still failing. By keeping drugs illegal, government doesn't stop bad drugs. Instead, they provide incentives for gangs to support violent activities by selling them. The center cares about freedom? The center is always looking for the compromise between right and wrong or between liberty and slavery. The center is populated by pragmatists. Hard to find a principled person amongst them.

@georgelopezblows Right or left they don't care much about freedom. Only center cares.

Government is not the solution to stop bad drugs, he is the problem.

@Redfingers He was an economic adviser.

I'm not a 100% libertarian, but I completely agree with this. Drug laws, do more harm than they are supposed to do.

This is why I like being a libertarian---because you can piss off both groups of people from the political aisle.
