I have to say you spout some serious BS sometimes. You can go after Rand Paul for saying some crazy stuff, or being an ideologue, and likely not going to play ball with our BS heirarchy, but to mention Libertarianism with Marxism and as somehow Libertarians would morph into Fascism is total garbage. Something that is a more overt form of social Darwinism, rather than the smoking mirrors social Darwinism-lite that we have now--where the peasants get a pittance at least, mostly for the sake of social stability, rather than kind hearted Plutocrats.

You often come across as an ideologue yourself in some of this rants. The mixture of technology allowing increased power to pool in the hands of fewer and fewer people globally and control dogma's be they Republican--top down moralism/control or Democrat--top down/control you for your own good--either way freedom is lost.

Libertarianism is no panacea, thats the rub, there IS NOT UTOPIA. Government is in bed with the monied/power brokers and both parties are owned, and thus decade after decade people rail against this false duopoly to no avail. Don't listen to what politicians say, watch what they do. Dem's were in bed with Wallstreet as much as the Repub's.

Why don't you wake up down their in the Burg', we've had fascism-lite for a long time now. Both parties support warmongering, patriot act, reduced freedoms, and both ultimately support the extreme wealthy--many whom are multinational in scope. The US has lots of headquarters, with most of the work being outsourced. Its amazing to me that someone who can be so discerning, falls back into political dogma--and believe in the smoking mirrors. Rand Paul, Sarah Palin et al. are just chewy toys for the leftist minded folks. Its well established that you get people to react limbically, and the neocortex and critical thinking go out the window--thats why all this propoganda works so well--divide and conquer. I read many blogs and find that ultimately the despite occasional rants against the power structure in this country, the Liberal/Conservative bullshit comes forth form time to time. It's a joke to even suggest Rand Paul could lead to fascist leadership do to reality gap, people don't function in reality in this country very often--we are trained/manipulated to function from Knee-Jerk emotional reasoning. Naomi's Shock Doctrine touches on this.
