`Well, I can only give you the definition from _The American Heretic's Dictionary_:
"Libertarian, n. Formerly, a synonym for "anarchist," a believer in equal liberty; the word is still occasionally used in this sense. Recently, however, the term has been appropriated by those who have very little in common with classical l----rs of liberty. At present, it usually refers to a member of the Libertarian Party, an individual who wishes for all other individuals exactly that amount of liberty which their money can buy."
I don't identify as libertarian, because if the Libertarian Party got what they wanted, it would only further widen the gap between rich and poor. I do, however, identify as anarchist in the classical sense, that is, one who believes We The People can govern ourselves without a State.
