Asteroid defense and libertarianism

The problem with libertarianism is that there is no bright line as to where necessary-even-to-a-libertarian ends and evil socialism starts. Everyone interprets it differently and then jumps through hoops to explain why it is really obvious. This ought to be a clue that that things aren’t all that easy when you set up a human society-there is no one size fits all “right” answer.
