but there is quite a bit of good information and important history. Given that the corporate media is touting libertarianism as an "alternative" to the 2 party hegemony, we're going to see quite a bit of obfuscation and amplification from the same source. It's good to have the facts handy to refute the Libertarian's faux populism.
