What Would A Libertarian Do?

The recent 30 year natural gas deal between Russia and China has me wondering....what would a libertarian president do about this? Given their isolationist tendencies, they would likely do nothing and let the free market do what it will.

But is that effective in the age of globalization? And does it leave the United States more vulnerable from the standpoint of economic competition (i.e. the new "world war")?

Given their isolationist tendencies

So there is your first error. Shall we correct that or do you just want to pile one atop another?

I mean, doesn't it bother you that you are repeating the same bullshit talking points as neo-cons?

And what exactly do you expect Obama to do about this? You're against sending Canadian tar sands oil to China, right?

So, no approach that a non-libertarian should take, just a shot at libertarians for being "isolationist".

I guess that is about standard for you.
