Party Platform
The Libertarian Party platform is a combination of fiscal conservatism and social liberalism with a strong emphasis on individual liberty and responsibility. Libertarians believe in free market economics, protection of private property, and the individual's right to perform any action which is peaceful and honest. These are the fundamental principles which guide the rest of the platform.[3]


==References==
Abortion
{{reflist}}
The Libertarian Party believes that there are good-faith arguments on both sides of the abortion debate. Its official position is that the government should stay out of the issue entirely, letting individual decisions and morality dictate action.[4] However, consistent with its position of government non-involvement, it is adamantly opposed to government funding for Planned Parenthood.

Gay Marriage
{{DEFAULTSORT:Keitel, Jesse James}}
The Libertarian Party believes that consenting adults should be allowed to choose their own sexual practices and personal relationships free from government intervention. It believes that much of the cultural tension involved with gay marriage and gay rights would go away once personal relationships are kept private, solely defined by the persons involved.[5] However, many in the party would support privatizing the definition of marriage. A press release from the party implied that this would effectively permit polygamy as well, saying "We should settle for nothing less than a society in which the legal code is wiped clean of references to a person's sexual identity or depends on how many sexual partners they have." [6]
 
Gun Control
The Libertarian Party believes that gun ownership is one of the fundamental rights laid down in the Constitution, and, since ownership is a peaceful action, criminal penalties against such cannot be morally justified. It also believes that gun prohibition would not prevent people from owning guns, and that Americans have the right to decide how to best protect themselves. Lastly, since the Libertarian Party believes strongly in personal responsibility, it believes that the responsibility for violence should rest on the gun owner, not the gun.[7]
 
Health Care
The Libertarian Party believes that government bureaucracy and spending are the reasons that the health care system is currently in crisis. The party endorses establishing health savings accounts, deregulating the health care industry, and replace the Food and Drug Administration with a more efficient free-market alternative.[8]
 
Taxation
The Libertarian Party strongly supports cutting all taxes. It believes that the size of government can be drastically lowered by cutting wasteful spending and privatizing certain services.[9]
 
War on Drugs
The Libertarian Party believes that, while drug abuse is deplorable, the war on drugs has caused more problems than it has solved. Libertarians see prohibition as a threat to civil liberties and a huge drain on taxpayers, and believe individuals have the right to choose what to put into their own bodies, but that they should be held responsible for the consequences of their actions when they affect others.[10]
 
Immigration
The Libertarian Party supports the "freedom of movement", including both immigration and emigration, as a fundamental human right, and asserts that governments have no right to discriminate on the basis of nationality, parentage, or where a person was born. Thus the party supports amnesty for undocumented persons, aka illegal aliens, and immigration with few to no restrictions.
