Correction. Libertarians are not koranic cultists. Yeah but, if Libertarians really want to live free of the evil collectivist society that they loath, they have to live on their own and support themselves, free of collectivism entirely. Because, one way or another you're benefitting from collectivism by living in American society, be it public or private collectivism. Public collectivism being obvious, things like: public roads, public security, public schools, public transport, etc. Private collectivism not so obvious, but collectivist all the same, things like hospitals, corporations, and supermarkets, while perhaps private entities and privately funded, still function in a collectivist manner in which the individual relys upon and benefits from the collectivist institution as a whole. You don't take care of your own illnesses, you don't provide your own job (if you work for a corporation), you don't collect or kill your own food. We're all dependent on one another (unless you're living on your own and supporting yourself in some remote area where you don't come in contact with collectivist society) whether Libertarians like it or not.
