If you bother to read ALL FOUR PARTS to this essay you will see the criticisms of libertarian thinking, but the point of the 4-part essay clearly is not criticising libertarian theory — instead, it is about assessing what Ron Paul’s cult means for any form of movement away from the 2-party monopoly on faux-democracy here in America.

This is clear from a reading of the 4-part essay.

Why are you distorting the essay? Is it because you’re dishonest? Is it because you’re too dim-witted to understand the author’s clear writing?

This was a test. Methinks this may be gatekeeper territory. The word will spread, I guarantee it. Didn’t see my earlier comment up about Paul and 911.

When he picks up the gauntlet in the intelligence field of the 911 truth movement, acknowledging even one of the many glaring inconsistencies, e.g. the collapse of WTC Bldg. 7, he will be acknowledged as a true patriot. If he does so, I suggest he have Jesse Ventura and a team of ex-Seals by his side, to protect him from danger.

However, whatever shaped Ron Paul, what he is calling for is the exact debt free Constitutional monetary system you seem to want, as well as 'free trade' that is not globally, but individually controlled, and protection of our sovereignity. I guess what I am saying is that even if you are right about the people who helped shape him, he seems to be going in the right direction now.

I.e., (you claim) they're associated with the "right gate keepers", and the "right gate keepers" are bad, therefore they are bad. If you have issue with some part of libertarian philosophy, then why not argue against it in a cogent manner?
