Jaques-- why did you delete the link to liberalism (which is a page that exists) but leave the link to classical liberalism (which is a page that doesnt exist)??--Redblue 18:04, 4 April 2007 (EDT)
Is that supposed to be humorist Dave Barry? Links would help on these people if they are important enough to be listed here. Human 22:16, 23 April 2007 (EDT)
I'm unsure how libertarianism is "closely" connected to liberalism. From the social point of view, this is evident; However, libertarians believe in small government, a viewpoint often shared by conservatives (except in times of war, it seems). KxWaal 22:16, 28 June 2007 (EDT)

"Libertarianism is generally considered right-wing." Is this true anymore? I know it used to be true before social issues were more important to the political landscape, but nowadays libertarians agree with liberals on things (war on drugs, abortion, war in Iraq, Patriot Act) so I'm not sure it's so accurate anymore. I know that some political scientists call them right wing but I wonder how general? At any rate, I put the {{fact}} tag in there for now; I have no contrary sources to provide which would allow me to remove the statment entirely
