Only 6.5% of the people (who took the quiz) agree with the Libertarian position on taxes!
====Promote smaller steps on taxes and spending, to moderate and win a majority.====
Moving from zero taxes to 50% tax cuts (over time), Libertarians win only 6.5% + 15.7% + 7.5% = 29.7% of the vote. To drop back to a 30-40% spending cut, the percent improves to 40.4%. 
Based on these numbers, note that radical cuts in government spending are not the best issue for Libertarian candidates.
