More Kids Looking at Libertarian Party Over GOP

Driving home every day, I noticed one of the high school kids in the neighborhood changed his pro-Republican bumper sticker reading "Republicans, we go to work so you don't have to" on the back of his car to a simple black sticker with the word "Libertarian". This happened a few weeks before the election.

I finally had the chance to speak with the young man about why the change.

His answer was concise. "The Republican party is moving in the wrong direction." He continued to tell me how the GOP has moved too far to the left and doesn't fight for our freedoms.

This is coming from a high school senior, active in JROTC, who only has 18 years of life. What amazes me is many adults who grew up hearing the rhetoric of the evils of the Soviet Union fail to see the American way of life is becoming more Soviet like from checkpoints set up throughout our society to more wealth redistribution schemes to more government control of our every day lives like Obamacare, whose blueprint comes from the GOP's 1994 alternative to Hillarycare.
