# **UPDATE OF THE VERTICAL POLITICAL SPECTRUM.**
**Time for my annual update to my old vertical "political spectrum." moving the "Libertarian Party" closer to the Republicans and Democrats, being that most of the LP politicians and candidates have been statists, right-wingers, conservatives and Republicans.**
**As *****liberty***** is not inside the spectrum, part of any of the political doctrines, I placed it, along with *****anarchy, voluntaryism and non-aggression*****, outside of the spectrum (very top). I also placed *****totalitarianism***** inside the spectrum (very bottom) as tyranny is the foundation of government (left-right). **
**Periodically, I see people use the horizontal left-right political spectrum to pin-point where their beliefs lay. Many times I see people use them to shill for the political left or right, moving parties and doctrines around. Several years ago there was a push to move *****fascism *****over to the left side. Recently, I had one individual insist that *****liberty***** resides on the left of the spectrum. **
**No matter what others believe, most people see the words *****"left"***** and *****"right,"***** and assume that *****liberty***** falls somewhere within. In reality, only the aggression based doctrines reside on the left-right political spectrum. The non-aggression based philosophy of *****liberty***** is simply not there, because government simply cannot exist in a free society (self-ownership, voluntaryism, non-aggression). Statists often complain about making a vertical spectrum. I did this to remove the political left-right as an answer for a free society.**
**I placed considerable space between the political parties and *****liberty*****, to indicate just how far away from liberty they are.**
