So the difference between our current situation and a libertarian society is the mindset of humanity? It is just a utopian pipe dream.ifallalot said:This is where the philosophy of keeping a small government comes in. There needs to be a general end to the "there oughtta be a law" mindset as well as taking advantage of our system and having the localized government govern more than the Federal government.DerDer said:How does libertarianism stop these extra laws, spending and bureaucracy? Going back to my original question... Who says what laws are extra, what to not spend money on and what bureaucracy to eliminate?ifallalot said:The piles of extra laws and spending they pass every year, the countless agencies, bureaucracy, lobbying, etcDerDer said:A representative government, bound by a constitution - that sounds familiar. How is that any different then our current representative government, bound by our current constitution?ifallalot said:There's still a representative government bound by a Constitution that limits the new laws. Hence, not anarchy.
