>>I'd love to be a libertarian, but I fail to see how they fix the potholes, clean the sewers, prove safe drinking water and provide for dispute resolution that is viewed by the majority as fair. Not to mention a common defense.<< Bet you didn't know that a lot of drinking water is supplied by private companies. nawc.org Municipal pothole fixers and sewer cleaners don't do anything that private contractors can't do. Most libertarians agree that courts and national defense are part of essential government. We aren't anarchists.
