Entry: Greenspan's Gambits Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/greenspans_gambits#5314 Post contents: Best quote of this article: "In the minds of dogmatic adherents, libertarian economics is a scientifically proven truth that they believe with the same certitude as the Marxist believes in the labor theory of value...It is probably no accident that during his early years, Mr. Greenspan was an acolyte of Ayn Rand, one of the most dogmatic and personally unpleasant individuals ever to have infested the American political scene. She bequeathed libertarianism a legacy of sectarian schism and personality cults rivaling Trotskyism. It is highly indicative of the drift of these types of movements that Rand’s current official heirs have out-neoconned even the neocons in their love of military aggression." Exactly, what I've been saying for years. "Libertarians" are dangerous utopian ideologues, and for this reason are incompatible with "conservativism". Sent at: 2008 11 22
