98. When you take Libertarian ideals to their logical conclusions....

When you take Libertarian ideals to their logical conclusions, you will often find yourself in positions similar to the one Ver finds himself in now.

This is one of my favorite games to play with Libertarians. I call it "Life in Libertaria."

So, my Libertarian neighbor was complaining that the big, mean, old government tries to control him and tell him what he can and can't do in his "castle" and of course, government should not have that "right."

He asked me why he couldn't, say, open a bar in his home (a house in a normal, residential, suburban neighborhood).

So, I asked him questions about his plan: How would his customers get there if not on a public road? Helicopter, maybe? Where would he get his electricity if not from a public utility service? A gasoline generator? Would he serve my 13 year old alcohol? Food? What if my 13 year old got sick from his alcohol or contaminated food? What would be my recourse?

He said he liked the idea of a gas generator because he hates his neighbor and would like to blow exhaust on her property. He said he hates his neighbor because she doesn't keep her house up and her poorly conditioned house devalues his property. I asked him why he was concerned with his neighbor and her property upkeep when that is her "castle" and "in Libertaria" she would have the right to keep it in any way she saw fit.

Oddly, he is not speaking to me anymore.

LOL!
