> libertarianism is an inherently flawed ideology because its maxim is so meaningless. "i want the smallest possible government" - okay, but the smallest possible government is still pretty big. maybe aus. here's my disagreement.  libertarianism cannot exist in a vacuum of power. it grows (here in the states) as the feds overly manage the citizenry. so it's like econ 101; there's an equilibrium between supply and demand, called a "price" of a good of service. we see it similar. the desire for libertarianism grows and government power grows. when liberty is at "equilibrium" withe state power, then people will leave the party.
