No Loopholes in Libertarianism
Submitted by mhstahl on Sat, 2012-08-11 00:00
"I try to find the instance where it really is necessary or ethical to be the first to throw a punch; to “initiate force” in the parlance of libertarians. I look for those cases where taking property from its rightful owners for “the common good” really is the right thing to do. I look for examples where a problem was honestly solved by using the coercive force of The State."
