  Having not read Nock doesn't preclude me from taking your argument as you've written it. Nice try at appealing to questionable authority, though. I'm disappointed at this level of discourse. Secondly, why do you assume that I assume that? It's quite emblematic of the erosion of logic in libertarian "rationality". If you read my post, you can see I touched on outreach by the community, which isn't enough after devastating disaster. We had volunteers come from all over the country, that helped with the most superficial matters: ie removing debris, evangelizing. That was temporary immediate relief and they were not seen again after a month. It wasn't enough to fix the heavy structural damage. It wasn't enough to find shelter for people without homes. But go on, tell me how we're domesticated humans for exhausting all of our options and possibly maybe getting funds to rebuild. Social fabric in America has been eroded away by poverty, lack of opportunity, alienation, and the good old divide and conquer method. Please expound on how you believe government intervention is the cause of our ills.
