> Yeah, sorry, Libertarianism is more like a religion than a system of governance. Though I support Libertarianism, my post was not about it. I am saying, 10 small socialist nations > 1 big socialist nation. 10 small Apple > 1 big Apple. My point is big state or corporation is risky and can abuse their powers. We have anti-competition organisations for corporations. We should have for states too. If people of a region wants to secede out of a socialist/capitialist/etc regime we should all support. > Leaving everything to the "free market" just frees those who already have wealth and power No not just weathly but _everyone_. > to do whatever they want and shackles the rest of us Like, maybe, all Libertarians, I support non violence. I dont see how that would happen. > who's only power at the moment is our vote Vote is not power. The elected may have powers. But not voters. A widespread misunderstanding. Vote in exchange for personal freedom only favours elected & friends. People are now realizing this. > (and even that has been eroded over the last 40 years.) Yes the world is correcting itself. Vote is not a power. Its productiveness or how useful/neccessery you are to others. To gain productivity you need freedom, thats what I advocate for. > You do get told what your tax money will be used for. Thats not really same as Apple wooing me for iPhone. > Constantly. If you choose not to pay attention and choose not to vote, that's on you. I am from India and I voted for Modi. I have never felt more cheated than now. Look at what a circus India is now. If thats not a case for Libertarianism/Microstates I dont know what is.
