Dear Tony,

Thanks for the link to that essay. The author and I share many criticisms of Libertarianism -- especially concerning its failings due to elements of idealism.

But I don't like his test:

I think the true test of the libertarian scheme is whether an impoverished but talented individual from a disfavored group could get a start in it.

Get "started" at what? Economics uber alles... still...

Kindest Regards
