Entry: Confessions of a Bitter Old Reactionary Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/confessions_of_a_bitter_old_reactionary#23867 Post contents: JP: your understanding of libertarian ideas is deeply at odds with mine. I tell people that the essence of libertarianism is: You may do as you wish with your life and your property as long as you do not forcibly interfere with anyone else's life or property. That certainly does not describe the orientation of the American government in the last 50 years, so I find it impossible to lay the blame for our current economic mess at the feet of libertarianism. Perhaps you were trying to describe fascism and just got the label wrong? Sent at: 2008 07 06
