The Campus Libertarians of UAH are a new, recognized organization on campus. They set up a booth in the UC so they could talk to students and quiz voluntary students on their political beliefs. Although all students are welcome at the group s meetings, the quiz gave the libertarian organization an idea of who might be most interested in attending future meetings. Liberals want to use government power to control economic choices and financial decisions.
Conservatives tend to want to use government power on moral questions and personal issues.
Kjar went on to explain the difference between authoritarians and libertarians, which also provided a contrast among all of the aforementioned political ideologies. Libertarians believe government should be kept to a minimum in both economic and personal realms. Kjar was on hand to answer questions in the UC, and he was also the speaker at the group s meeting later Thursday evening. This is one of his many stops at Alabama universities. He will be visiting other libertarian clubs to assist in the increase in membership.
