If you're sympathetic to libertarian ideas, I'm surprised you're not interested in furthering discussion about libertarian

"A fanatic is someone who can't change his mind and won't change the subject." Not every conversation on the Internet has to be about libertarianism. Anyone who can't accept that about any of their pet topics is a commenter we can't afford to have.

Agreed. Discussions of dogmatisms such as libertarianism in any of its forms is boring, boring, boring and now what I'd like to read here.

Not that the original post here is an example of that, per se, although I think it comes close.

For the record, while I do have sympathies for libertarian ideas, I consider myself closer to the socialist end of the spectrum.
