The wonderful and frightening world of Libertarianism

Any one else into Libertarianism.
Herer's a few reasons why I think it's the best political philosophy
a-A Libertarian govt. wouldn't incarcerate someone just they allowed, or couldn't stop, their daughter from committing the henious crime of not going to sit in a class room and listen to someone drone on about a load of stuff she's, almost certainly, not in the slightest bit interested in and most of whilch serves her no useful purpose whatsoever and that at the taxpayer's expense!! Not to mention the expense to the taxpayer of actually paying someone to arrest her mother, prosecute, defend*, judge and finally jail her...TWICE!!!!

b-Unlike under the Marxervatives it discourages people being profligate. In the case of big buisness because Libertarians wouldn't bail them, even 'too big to fail' buisness then they would probably be more responsible and even if they weren't then a country wouldn't be left in massive debt when they did fail. In the case of individuals it, by default of their being no welfare state or NHS, petrifies people in to saving money and spending it on health insurance before night's out, holidays and other luxuries. People say the U.S.A health system is bad but how many poor people could have sacrificed lurxuires to pay for better health insurance? I belive the ans. is many.

c-the massive reduction in state spending naturally allows the state, under a Libertarian govt. to massively reduce taxation both for buisness and private indviduals. In terms of buisness this would enable them to expand creating more employment and because there wouldnt be any mimimum wage or any kind of governemt intervention in employer's rights they could compete for people's labour in the labour market in far more competitive ways than they can in most countries with high taxation. In practise this could enable, say U.K, companies to compete with companies in China and India by being able to produce cheaper goods and services. This would mean people on the dole effectively being cohersed into working for as much or even less than they currently get on the dole but Is that not better than having millions of people on the dole?

d-Drug's would be freely availabe, well legaly available. (just don't expect and govt. programmes for drug rehabiltion etc....or much symapthy if you're so sad and pathetic to get y'self hooked on ****)
