Geode, it's impossible to explain the theory of relativity to a dog. Similarly, it's impossible to explain Libertarianism to some people. They don't have the neural receptors to absorb the data and process it into their minds. That's just how life works. Similarly, getting chimps to vote instead of eating the ballot paper would be a big ask.

<Libertarians think everyone is out to get them and shake them to pay something out of their cash hoarde. >

Not everyone Geode, only 80% of people [give or take a few depending on how one measures it]. Most people have serfdom in their blood and confiscation in their hearts, but there's an huge range.

We Libertarians do like to avoid having the rabid hordes robbing our hoards. You were partly right.
