Some people are afraid of the increased freedoms in a libertarian society or believe that chaos will result without a 'babysitter' government.

Has a Libertarian ever served inthe US House of Representatives?

No. At least no member of the Libertarian Party has ever served in the US House of Representatives as a Libertarian. However, many congressmen have been sympathetic to Libertarian ideas and, in some cases, the Libertarian Party. A few examples follow: - Rep. Ron Paul, (R-TX) was the 1988 Libertarian presidential nominee and is currently campaigning for the 2008 GOP nomination. His philosophy is very similar to the Libertarian platform. - Rep. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) - Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) - Former Rep. Bob Barr (R-GA) after leaving office, Mr. Barr has become a formal member of the Libertarian Party. - Former Rep. Tom Campbell (R-CA) - Former Rep. Barry Goldwater, Jr (R-CA) - Former Rep. Butch Otter (R-ID)


Where does libertarian fall on the political spectrum?

Many libertarians argue that the notion of a linear political spectrum itself is not sufficient to describe the ideas and platform. In general, the libertarian philosophy of non-aggression and personal freedom is not adequately described by either a conservative or a liberal philosophy. Some people do think of libertarians as being fiscally conservative and socially liberal. Those labels, however, imply that there is some sort of derivative relationship between the libertarian movement and other political movements and parties, which there is not. Refer to the World's Smallest Political Quiz (see related link below) for more information.
