Not a bad video.
DiggDel.icio.usFacebookTwitterRedditGoogle BookmarkI was discovering that life just simply isn't fair and bask in the unsung glory of knowing that each obstacle overcome along the way only adds to the satisfaction in the end. Nothing great, after all, was ever accomplished by anyone sulking in his or her misery.

Why is it that when people disagree with libertarians, libertarians often assume that its an issue of understanding?Originally Posted by Neomalthusian

Some people really don't understand libertarians, liberals, conservatives, etc.
That's part of the reason all groups get the name calling stuff.
Never under estimate the stupidity and/or ignorance of some people.

Maybe its just me. I have had so many libertarians try and explain their philosophy to me so many times. I get it.
I just don't agree with their moral reasoning.

The kind of thing I had in mind was the notion that someone who does not have the resources he needs is therefore without liberty or is denied liberty. And/or that collecting the property of others to give them more resources results in greater liberty. That kind of argument represents a failure of understanding, and I think the video does well to delineate that.

Sorry to jack the thread. Its just an annoyance with me. When I disagree with someone, its not because I know less with them, a pet peeve I guess.
I will shut up now.

Some people understand libertarians all to well.
Never underestimate their grasp of reality and the impact of it.

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.... John Rogers
