Interview w/ the Libertarian candidate for president in this election.
Pretty much the official modern line on Libertarianism

I considered myself a libertarian of sorts back in the 70s; lots of it sounds/sounded good, but there were significant gaps…and then the social darwinists moved in….
Among its many problems is the question of HOW, exactly, to go from where we are to their target point, and…what were they going to do to defang their target point.
Switching from this to that involves real problems - not the least of which is how it enshrines the wealthy in their status as controlling interests in land use, resources, raw property & sheer influence pressure) - and as implacable obstacles
Replacing everything with the libertarian dreamscape version would put everything in the hands of the wealthy - and who wouldn’t want ordinary folks to hand them an unbreakable oligarchy?
A change like that could only occur sanely if we equalized the ownership share of each American, putting us all on the same footing…and we’d have to agree by overwhelming popular vote - otherwise it’s be just another dictatorial usurpation
