Is it true that Conservatives believe in a strong central government while Libertarians do not? Generally yes. Conservatives tend to favor a large military and strong morality laws, although they do tend to prefer lower taxes. Libertarians often vote conservative due to the last point, but typically believe in a small government with minimal regulations to prevent initiation of force (prevent fraud, violence and the violation of property rights, and then get out of the way). 1.1K views

Is it true that Conservatives believe in a strong central government while Libertarians do not? No, not necessarily. Libertarians are more or less uniform in their belief in a small and weak federal government, but there is a great diversity of thought among conservatives on this point. Some go one direction, others the opposite. 568 views
