I intended the title to be "Libertarian Socialists Expound!" because that is more what I'm after, but it looked too bland, so I went with something exciting.
I'm curious about this strange flavor of libertarianism, so I'm asking those who identify as such to explain what their philosophy is, how it differs from what you might call free-market-capitalist libertarians, & what political party feels most like home.
Note:
Let's not get caught up in any debates here.
This thread is about understanding perspectives.

I'm a lib-socialist and happy to reply but this forum says "capitalists only" so is this the right place to do so?

Oh, dear! I meant to put it in the Libertarian Only forum!
Help! Need someone more competent to move it!
Or I'll just re-create it there.

I think it would be best to put it in the socialist forum

From the thread about appropriate placement:

Socialist: Subscribing to the ideas of public ownership of production and cooperative management of the economy. This ideology can be seen in Marxism, libertarian socialism, social democracy, and others. People who find themselves in this ideology often identify with political organizations such as: Socialist International, Socialist Party USA, Democratic Socialists of America, New Democratic Party (Canada), Social Democratic Party of Germany.

I may not post it there, since I'm not a socialist.
Anyway, I created this thread in the Libertarian Only forum.
Libertarian socialists are allowed to post there per the rules.

Please, everyone, ignore this thread.

You knew, of course, that writing "ignore this thread" would draw people like me. And further, posting a comment in an "ignore" thread is one of my sins.

Yes, I admit to some mischief with the new title.
Isn't it great that we can fix our own titles now!
