I did not say that everything on the list was pure white truth. I certainly did not demand you agree with the list. What I was showing are common examples of how politicians sell their agenda through mild subterfuge.
You don’t hear Dems shouting “socialism,” instead they shout “justice.” That is the idea.
The point of the article is that libertarians have to play the game to hope to ever win.
so you are looking for a way to deceive people - since they reject your theories
how sad is that
I quite agree that libertarians need to package their ideas better.
I just don’t think this list is a very good example of doing so.
They’re either not libertarian at all or they are inaccurate.
For instance, the claim that corporate welfare is a bigger problem than welfare for individuals. It may or may not be true, that depends on your definitions and the numbers.
But “welfare” of either type is not the real problem. It’s the accumulation of entitlements as a whole, of which “welfare” is rather a small piece.
No offense intended. Your heart is in the right place, but I think you need to give this idea some more thought.
