Patrick -
Thanks for weighing in, even if your terseness got mistaken for some
form of criticism!
I meant to make a general statement to the list about how I feel about
the dismantlement of the US by anarcho-capitalists and
liberterians-of-convenience. My comment was meant to be "in the
stream" and was not directed at your specific comments. My apologies
for allowing my taste for brevity to lead my sparse commentary to
appear to be an attack of your messaging.
I myself admit to having an overly large sense of morbid fascination, so
*I* may be guilty of taking morbid pleasure in the kinds of things being
discussed. I love a good Zombie Apocalypse even if it is only
metaphorical.
I also give your "Libertarians of convenience" a thumbs up even if I may
be one.
Although I *identify* with some of the spirit of
Anarcho-Libertarianism, it is a *personal* preference which I do not
expect others to participate in. I don't honestly expect a Liberatarian
Utopia to happen (much less be desirable) but I *do* think that a
faction of (generous?) Libertarians (oxymoron?) can do a lot to improve
the world. This is where I find card-carrying Libertarians to fail...
they insist on personal choice being paramount and then try to foist it
on everyone else... paradox much?

Sorry. I don't understand. Are you suggesting that I'm making fun of the
situation?
