Maybe if a bunch of libertarians get together for mutual defense, elect leaders, set rules on how they'll pool their resources, they'll be able to prevent this from happening...

Oh no, they created a government!




Why didn't the other party just follow the NAP?! Then this couldn't have happened!


Are you giving a definition of libertarians or making a rhetorical point about the inadequacy of democracy in the short term for avoiding a crisis, or arguing against any form of government?

I can't make any sense of this.


Yeah, I don't believe a true anarcho-capitalist society is possible at this point in time. (It's a neat concept, though!)

Minarchism, also a part of libertarianism, is definitely more realistic though.


Believe it or not, libertarianism is the entire bottom half of the political compass, and the vast majority of them are not anarchists
