Economic issues along with issues that pertain to power and size of government (except when it comes to the military, hypocrites) are just too much for the left to disagree with. It's too big of a contingent of our modern politics to be totally disconnected from the right. I'm not going to lie though, when it comes to lifestyles, personality, and culture, I would much rather associate with liberalism than conservatism. That's pretty significant, its just that the realm of policy positions on political issues is much different than simply the way we think or live our lives. Although I'll certainly pair up with the right to speak out against free speech hating SJWs.
I'm increasingly not liking the right in the United States and where its going. Even on the issues I think they're correct on they're correct for the wrong reasons imo. Ex: They're 'concerned' about the national debt, but largely because they think a large portion of the population takes welfare unfairly and doesn't work, only mooches off the government (an existing problem, but WAY overblown, not as significant as they claim).
And if ExtremeRepublican, Trump, and co. want to complete push any appeal to libertarianism away with the direction their movement is going, then they can do that. We can be independent loners forever, not associated with the right or left, since neither will want us with them.
