What does Friday matter? Friday was when the cynics would rejoice in righteous indignation. Monday was when responsible people were redeemed; when society through its government recognized that the real moral dilemma here was whether or not to vindicate the cynics.
There is a solution to the Prisoner's Dilemma, and it's called civilization, known in the modern era as institutional government. Like their communist cousins, die-hard libertarians should be forced to live in truly libertarian countries (i.e. those with extremely weak governmental institutions where wealth is safeguarded primarily through a web of private arrangements) and only then be allowed to opine on what's rational. For some reason libertarians can't often be found in those countries; not by choice, at least; and certainly they don't park their wealth there.
