So there are around 10% of libertarians in the US. Would you say it would be fair to give those libertarians 10% of the land the US owns and let them live there as a separate country? After all, they have no less rights for the land of the country you live in than you, they were born here.
- scotty79 13y agoPeople who in reality own things are the ones with the army. Almost every group of people who chose to disobey their respective governments quickly discovered that. I see no point why US government should give libertarians any land it controls. Unless it's a small wasteland and libertarians could practically threaten the government in any way as US citizens so it would be beneficial to kick them out of the system. And the whole "fair" thing basically ends as you graduate from high-school or college. Adults like to talk about it but don't practically concern themselves with it when they do business.
- snitko 13y agoI think it's a great point. You've just demonstrated very eloquently how people with guns and monopoly on power simply don't give a shit about anybody else who tends to disagree with them.
