Sorta sounds like libertarianism is like Anarchy, everyone for themselves and screw the next guy, as in I've got mine, fuck you and I'll fight to the death to defend it. Everyone owns themselves and no-one can tell anyone what to do, yup anarchy for sure!!! That form of non-governance would promote chaos. I guess there would have to be alliances between the successful to defend against the unlucky beggars, then you'd have to invent some form of law, (property law for sure), and then you'd have to have enforcers of that law, and to pay the enforcers, you'd have to tax someone, might as well be the poor, and if they didn't pay you'd have a debtors prison so the people would turn to drugs and you could incarcerate them etc. etc., wait, I think that is exactly what we have now, it's called aristocracy, where the rich few, rule the many poor, so now I get it, your happy with what Bush is doing because you're on the winning side of the aristocracy, why didn't I think of that?
