Libertarians =/= Nazis

[cratehorus]

you can "say" a lot of stuff, but it doesn't necessarily mean you mean it......People should be judged by their actions, not always by what they say.

Why doesn't this apply to ron paul in your mind? are you saying ron paul isn't a person?

Both the mainstream parties are authoritarian: http://www.politicalcompass.org/uselection2012

I could just as easily say "both mainstream parties are libertarian"

Good things are subjective. Libertarians consider the things highlighted as "good". You might not; doesn't make a bit of difference to me. They are quite clearly not Nazi ideas though.

So what are the main criticisms of libertarians?

Jeffrey Friedman argues that natural law libertarianism's justification for the primacy of property is incoherent:

if...the liberty of a human being to own another should be trumped by equal human rights, the liberty to own large amounts of property [at the expense of others] should... also be trumped by equal human rights. This alone would seem definitively to lay to rest the philosophical case for libertarianism... The very idea of ownership contains the relativistic seeds of arbitrary authority: the arbitrary authority of the individual's 'right to do wrong.'

Some leftists and environmentalists who argue for reduced carbon emissions and pollution argue that many libertarians currently have no method of dealing with collective problems like environmental degradation and natural resource depletion because of their rejection of collective regulation and control. They see natural resources as too difficult to privatize, as well as legal responsibility for pollution and degrading biodiversity as too hard to trace


Some critics of the economic system favored by right-libertarians argue that market failures justify government intervention in the economy, that non-intervention can lead to monopolies and stifled innovation, or that unregulated markets are economically unstable. They argue that markets do not always produce the best or most efficient outcome, that redistribution of wealth can improve economic health, and that advances in economics since Adam Smith show that people's actions are not always rational.

Other economic criticisms concern the transition to a libertarian society. Some critics argue that privatizing Social Security would cause a fiscal crisis in the short-term and damage individuals' economic stability in the long-term while increasing poverty for the disabled and elderly, thus leaving their reliance for financial assistance in the hands of private citizens
