serrach here. and def. agree with ya there on libertarians. they've become a bit of a necessary evil in my life even though most of 'em around here are LINO repubs. anyhoo, i recently found this chomsky quote, he touches on libertarianism and nails it
( ... )
You just used Department of Homeland Security resources (hello 63.162.143.5, n005.dhs.gov) to call a citizen a moron for opposing oppressive, un-American government intrusion.
I hope your supervisor is going to be a lot nicer about that than I would.
Go do some fucking work instead of making a fool out of yourself on the Internet on my dime, Mr. Rent-a-Toadie.

Libertarians always seem to be middle-class white guys with dubious educations who've never had to work a real job in their lives or visit the reality that most people live in from day to day. Just imagine one of these guys living in Finland and the schadenfreude moments that ensue from watching him complain and the Finns who foam at the mouth trying to respond. www.finlandforthought.net
Granted, they're more likeable than neocons but....I just think they're republicans in training until they hit 40.

There are the people who take it seriously and the people who, as you say, are larval right-wingers. It's similar to the 20-year-old Orange County punk "anarchist" that way. Real anarchism turns out to be difficult and full of social rejection, and they end up as something more conventional.
