I consider myself a classical liberal. I support social liberalism, but I lean fiscal conservative. I support an open capitalist market though not in an anarchocapitalist sense. The government should act like a referee, making sure monopolies are broken up and punish companies that break the law. Freedom of speech is extremely important, though calls for acts of violence aren't acceptable. Be as offensive as you want, but don't go telling people to kill a group of people. Lastly, I'm pro-individualism and anti-collectivism. I dislike the identity politics of both the left and right.

Why would the government act like a referee, when they are the rich ones? The United States government was founded by rich slave-owners who wanted to protect their property and who wouldn't let women vote while also getting into wars with natives and forcing them out of their homelands.

Corporatism. Rich companies have too much influence in politics and as a result, politicians do not represent their constituents. So the problem has less to do with government, but the relationship between corporations and government. I should've mentioned that I am anti-corporatism earlier.
