I have plenty of issues with Rothbard... but, a fascist? His capitalism is a very different capitalism than what most of us would associate with the word capitalism. Even your quote of requiring police to be liable for their faults isn't something that any police force in the United States is subject to. The key to improving liberty is trying to find allies, not trying to find enemies.

>Even your quote of requiring police to be liable for their faults isn't something that any police force in the United States is subject to. Police are still subject to the law at least in theory in the US and in actual practice police are charged with crimes on a regular basis. Police in the US are not allowed to be "administer instant punishment". Notice that he is saying "unleash" as in decrease the checks against police abuses. He is writing this directly after the Rodney King beatings in support of the presidential bid of a White Supremacists. Read his essay, it is a laundry list of fascist polices. With allies like him you don't need enemies.
