Kevin Carson calls this "vulgar libertarianism".  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?  Libertarians portray themselves as elite because of their ideological righteousness: just read Atlas Shrugged for that mentality.

Kevin Carson calls this [http://mutualist.blogspot.com/2005/01/vulgar-libertarianism-watch-part-1.html "vulgar libertarianism"]: ''"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?  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 that mentality.
