The problem with libertarianism
The problem with libertarianism is that it relies on non existant, collective human good will.
The average libertarian can be accurately described as an anarchist without a brick to throw. Thus, while we have the corrupt demagoguery of the republicans and the democrats, we have the more palatable but wholly ineffective libertarian brand. Sort of ‘nerf politics’.
So, where does that leave us? In a world of shit I’ll tell you.
Talking about it has never and will never do any good. Human faults and frailties such as greed (the operative human foible in America) eliminate the possibilty of any sort of intellectual/societal solution.
Corrupt societies eventually implode on themselves. All of them. Then you dig out of the rubble heap and start over. This is where ownership of a decent rifle comes in handy if you happen to be unfortunate enough to be alive during an implosion.
So the sooner you admit that our politcal, financial, and corporate systems are rotton with corruption and greed the sooner you can just stop fighting now when it matters not, and be ready to fight when it does. Altruism and faith in human nature are fine things, but lacking in utility and foundation in fact.
