Libertarianism is a form of closet socialism, because it's a self-affecting political view, meaning that every government program they can plug into is warranted and deserved, however, every government program they can not plug into is seen as a a tax.

I have not met one Libertarian who wasn't feeding off the government teet in some way.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
