Yet Another Word on What Libertarianism Is

Libertarianism is this thing that is as far away from crony capitalism as it is from social-democratic egalitarianism, and as far away from feudal conservatism as it is from technocratic "progressivism", and as far away from colonial militarism as it is from domestic paternalism, and as far away from militant nationalism as it is from internationalist statism. And if it puzzles you that such a thing may exist, then it is high time that you make the acquaintance of this other thing called individual liberty.
