厌倦川普与败灯的,2024大选可以投票给越来越受年轻人青睐的美国第三大党:自由意志党

(2024-02-21 05:27:12) 下一个

爪哥按语:

美国自由意志党1971年成立,目前是美国第三大政党,也是美国发展速度最快的政党,拥有超过65万名注册选民,以及超过两百名党员在担任公职,包括市长、郡政府官员等政府要职。

自由意志党的党纲宣示贯彻自由意志主义的理念,主张减少政府管制,坚定支持自由放任的市场经济以及公民自由

2020年由于众议员贾斯汀·阿马什的加入,使自由意志党在2020年大选前于国会众议院中短暂拥有一席,贾斯汀·阿马什是自由意志党首名国会议员。

用大陆华人最“熟悉”的话总结一下,自由意志党的党纲就是:

一个中心,两个基本点

一个中心:美国宪法

两个基本点:Libertarian Party is more culturally liberal than Democrats, and more fiscally conservative than Republicans。

所以,自由意志党越来越受到美国年轻人的青睐。我认识的好几个朋友在扭腰上班的孩子们,打算这次把选票投给自由意志党候选人。

2024大选,百年老店民主党与共和党,居然推不出一个像样的总统候选人,这真是美国的悲哀。哭

但对自由意志党而言,是借机发展壮大的不可多得的机遇。或许能在我有生之年,亲眼看到美国版的三国演义三足鼎立?解释

 

The Libertarian Party (LP) is a political party in the United States that promotes civil libertiesnon-interventionismlaissez-faire capitalism, and limiting the size and scope of government. The party was conceived in August 1971 at meetings in the home of David F. Nolan in Westminster, Colorado,[10][11] and was officially formed on December 11, 1971, in Colorado Springs.[11] The organizers of the party drew inspiration from the works and ideas of the prominent Austrian school economist, Murray Rothbard.[12] The founding of the party was prompted in part due to concerns about the Nixon administration, the Vietnam Warconscription, and the introduction of fiat money.[13]

The party generally promotes a classical liberal platform, in contrast to the Democratic Party's modern liberalism and progressivism and the Republican Party's conservatism.[14][non-primary source needed] Gary Johnson, the party's presidential nominee in 2012 and 2016, claims that the Libertarian Party is more culturally liberal than Democrats, and more fiscally conservative than Republicans.[15] Its fiscal policy positions include lowering taxes, abolishing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), decreasing the national debt, allowing people to opt out of Social Security and eliminating the welfare state, in part by utilizing private charities. Its cultural policy positions include ending the prohibition of illegal drugs, advocating criminal justice reform,[16] supporting same-sex marriage, ending capital punishment, and supporting gun ownership rights.[14]

As of 2023, it is the third-largest political party in the United States by voter registration.[17] In the 2020 election the Libertarians gained a seat in the Wyoming House of Representatives, giving them their first state legislative win since 2000.[18][19][20] As of August 2022, there are 310 Libertarians holding elected office: 193 of them partisan offices and 117 of them non-partisan offices.[9] There are 693,634 voters registered as Libertarian in the 31 states that report Libertarian registration statistics and Washington, D.C.[21] The first electoral vote for a woman was that for Tonie Nathan of the party for vice president in the 1972 United States presidential election due to a faithless elector supporter who eschewed his expected votes for President Richard Nixon and Vice President Spiro Agnew in favor of the Libertarian ticket. The first and only Libertarian in Congress was Justin Amash, who joined the Libertarian Party in 2020 and left the U.S. House of Representatives in 2021 after choosing not to seek re-election.

In 2022, the paleolibertarian Mises Caucus (LPMC) became the dominant faction on the Libertarian National Committee, leading to internal conflicts and significant policy changes, such as regarding immigration and abortion.[22][23]

魅力野花 回复 悄悄话 美国政治的堕落是选民的堕落。
是人民的堕落。
没有什么选择,只是民主党太坏,不要脸。
BigP 回复 悄悄话 最苦的就是中产,交的税多如牛毛,没有任何政客关注社会多数人群的实际利益。。。
其实在哪里都一样,中国更是如此,最后的解决办法只有成为他们的一员。 Libertarian 就是理想主义者,这种公平公正的理念只在乌托邦里才有,现实社会,天下熙熙只为利来。。。占有其它人的利益是几乎所有聪明人想干的。。。
BigP 回复 悄悄话 美国的事实专制主义就是富人买通共和民主两党议员政客,政治经济体制上富人得失利,穷人因为莫名其妙的理念分裂,而形成得超稳定的”民主“体制,其实民主自由是统治的精英阶层给99%大众的洗脑,形成穷人脑子里的美国最伟大最正确最自由虚假观念。。。穷人中产整天在意识形态领域被伪命题左右所有的精力,例如堕胎枪支厕所,真的富人有谁会在乎这种傻逼关注的伪命题,就是挑动群众斗群众,背后搞利益输送。。。真正的美国利益就是统治的精英层的利益。。。
