At least liberals have a clue what a mistake having no government would be.

It's kind of hard to place anarchists if you're just using the labels of liberal and conservative. Many conservatives (especially after Ronald Reagan) think liberals are too much in favor of big government and would favor reducing the size of government. This would seem to imply that conservatives are more like anarchists than liberals. However, most traditional anarchists believe they are more radical versions of liberals. However, this doesn't include anarcho-capitalists and libertarians, which tend to favor conservatives over liberals - especially on economic issues.

While a liberal may favor increasing taxes to fund government programs to help the poor, anarchists would not make that their focus. Instead of government programs to help the poor, anarchists would prefer to give control of the means of production over to democratically run assemblies of employees, thus eliminating capitalist ownership. (Anarcho-capitalists, of course, wouldn't be in favor of either of these.)

I would take an anarchist to aliberal any day. I think at least an anarchist would put up an intersting conversation abd be able to think for him or sherself.

At least they don't actually think they are a majority of the population.
They are both fun to hang out with though.
Not with you, I'm sory

Ah, let them think whatever they want. As long as they're not hurting anyone or inciting a riot, who cares?

I completely agree...they're far worse than liberals.
They're conservatives.
