re: #412 Higgs Boson’s Mate
Libertarians strike me as people who firmly believe that once the rest of us realize how smart they are and how right they are we’ll flock to their side.
Rand’s not a real libertarian. However, the biggest problem with the ideology is the lack of desire of Libertarians to actually look at how a real society operates and functions. It’s related to how von Mises/Austrian school economic subscribers ignore real life data at the expense of the theory. In that way, they are a lot like diehard Marxists.
