Anarcho-Capitalism
Of mainstream philosophies, it's definitely libertarianism. Real libertarians, not the Bush supporters who claim to be libertarian because they think it's "cool". (Mainly 14-year-olds)
Then conservatism, then liberalism, then moderate socialism, then fascism, then true socialism, then communism.

Capitalism means business being owned privately by 1 or more people. The Republicans pass the most laws that are beneficial to allowing individuals to own & then keep their business with the least amount of taxes & goverment interference. I would have to say that Conservative Republicans are businesses's friends & therefore the most supportive.
Democrats are pro programs to help those not working ( not working & can not work is not the same). Those programs are paid for mostly by the businesses's taxes. As a business owner, I am more likely to vote conservative. I never waste my vote on someone who can not win (Libertarian).

True Libertarians are without a doubt the staunchest capitalists. They believe in letting companies do basically whatever they choose and letting the market sort it out. I agree with them 100% on that particular issue, but disagree on certain others, which is why I consider myself a traditional Conservative.

Conservative definitely and maybe Libertarian. I'm not as farmiliar with their thinking.
Liberals however are pure Socialists who believe in a redistribution of wealth. A Communal philosophy where no matter how unequal the effort and accomplishment of each individual, each receives equally in return.
Therefore the successful fascilitates the failure, therefore eliminating any inspiration for achievement.
Sounds like a real Utopia doesn't it?

Definitely conservatives.
Liberals believe in socialism, and I don't really think there is much difference between a liberal and a libertarian.
