Gerhard,
I am unsure if we should be that troubled by our disagreements over these
issues. I actually became a Libertarian after adopting the MoQ precisely
because I think that the MoQ suports Libertarian ideas. Still we don't
argue about which painting in a gallery is real and which is not do we? So
perhaps we should not be that concerned that Dynamic Quality has lead
different people to different solutions for similar problem. I think that
the destinies of Europe and the US are different. We prefer our system,
you yours. Nothing weird about that. To parapharse Lila "How can those
Europeans stand to be Europeans?" and "How can those Americans stand to be
Americans?"
I can not accept your analysis of Libertarianism as being based on
dog-eat-dog biological level as being accurate. Libertarians do not think
that charity should not exist, but that the appropriate place for it is not
within the state but with the individuals and private organizations.
Libertarians think that people should not be compelled/coerced by the state
to contribute to programs or policies they do not think correct. In the US
we have Arab-American citizens who are forced to contribute tax dollars
which are then spent on buying arms for Isreal. What an absurdity!
Libertarians think that if people want to support this cause or that perhaps
THEY should support it. And let the rest of us do our thing.

How would we differentiate between "light" Libertarianism and "light"
socialism? Seems to me that in the middle there is a great deal of blurring
going on.
Sincerely,
