| + | Kevin Carson identifies this attitude: "Them pore ole bosses need all the help they can get." Simple rules for identifying friends and enemies, righteous and unrighteous. Private or public? Statist or freedom loving? Individualist or collectivist? Market or coercive? Ignorant or enlightened? All good comes from private enterprise, all evil comes from statism and government interference. These libertarians are fighting the Manichean struggle of light versus dark, and will make the most ludicrous assertions about how government is behind each and every evil. Denunciation and demonization abound, with salvation in capitalism alone. Libertarians portray themselves as elite because of their ideological righteousness: but they are really just the bosses favorites, the house slaves. Read some Atlas Shrugged to learn this mentality. | ||
