What is a Libertarian?

Freedom occurs when you have:

1. Term limits.
2. Abolition of the IRS.
3. A balanced budget amendment.
4. Campaign finance reform.

^THIS BRINGS ABOUT FREEDOM.^
 
Freedom occurs when your elected representatives make and enact laws; not some dopey, paid for judge, and not those lifetime appointed dopes on the Supreme Court.
 
Maybe even a literacy test.
Not a certified genus test, just something that shows that you have enough brain cells to figure out the Pacific from the Atlantic and such.
 
The idea that Piezoe can declare himself a Libertarian, yet support government bailouts, Federal Reserve market interference, etc. would be hysterical if it weren't so tragic.

piezoe is too smart and he applies to many rhetorical devices to not realize what he is doing.

1. pretending he did know of the koch brothers so he could approach the subject and take you on his journey of discovery... is a brilliant device.

2. disinformation about the Koch.
3. using that disinformation to denigrate the idea of laissez faire and libertarians that do not comport with his new definition.
4. then so he is not all piss and vinegar he says their ideas would be great if they did not have to comport with (his definition) of reality.
His reality is a world where all idea must bend to work in his idea of perfection.
5. Then he magnificently makes an argument to the extreme (as Max points out above) but makes it credible by bringing up Hobbes... and then using a strawman knocks down.


But... then this pieces de resistance...


Thomas Hobbes libertarian..

This is Animal Farm... we are all equal but some are more equal than others...


On a basic level.... Thomas Hobbes thesis in his biggest work... is the opposite of what libertarians espouse. Now I understand that Hobbes work is deeper that the idea that we grant rights to the govt and then the govt is absolute... but..

That piezoe... could say he is a Thomas Hobbes libertarian..

Is like say he is
a Pontius Pilate Christian
for Karl Marx Capitalist.
Joesph Stalin Tea Partier,
Joseph Goebbles man of integrity.
Piezoe is a Federal Reserve - Sovereign rights guy.
