It is lethal. If you don't know what libertarianism is, worth doing some reading. Many vote for the LNP today because they think they're voting for Liberals and Nationals. They're not, they've long since transformed into libertarian parties. Nothing at all like the Coalition even of my youth. John Howard drove that shift, towards the Republican libertarian attack politics of the US. He imported their actual personnel to introduce it here. It's done enormous damage to Australia in the past 25 years. Senior members of his own party resigned in disgust, including former Liberal Prime Ministers.
