Place for discussion from a Libertarian perspective, meaning less top-down control and more individual liberty. In general, the intent is discussion about issues and not a discussion on libertarianism itself or any of its branches.

Be sure to respect the instance rules, and please keep discussion civil and backed by high quality sources where possible.

See those two are things I disagree with. Mandatory insurance and mandatory inspections aren't about your right to get yourself killed, they're about not letting you hurt others through negligence. If you're gonna get rid of those things you might as well go all the way and stop requiring a license to drive.

Hopefully we can one day!

Good luck. I'll keep off your roads myself, they sound uniquely unsafe.
