“The privatization of Roads and Highways,” which is the book they always reference, still calls for a government to enforce the rules and settle disputes between private entities. The actual payment is proposed as a RFID tag you get on your vehicle and pay for everywhere you go “fractions of a penny per trip.” When asked about who cannot afford it? “Well that’s the government’s fault, if it weren’t for the increased indirect overhead of government intervention leads to more costly private services.” They legitimately believe if you’re poor, you not only deserve to be poor, but need more impoverished standards to motivate you more. Fuckin lunatics. Was a waste of a read
I'm imagining this story told in a wes anderson format: scene: beautiful homes in a pristine glen two homes symmetrically framed with an old lady shooing a bear into her neighbors window with a handkerchief. a paper boy rolls down a gravel road, throws a perfect toss and is violently snatched and drug into an overgrown ditch, a snowy haired bill Murray looks on from his porch uninterested in the child's screams of pain, he checks the revolver on his table and counts the rounds before placing it down and resuming reading his paper.

I’m pretty sure Jesse Ventura said he stopped identifying as a libertarian because he realized they were all indifferent to climate change; either thinking it was a hoax or just not a big deal.
Near the end of the Roman Republic, one of the richest men in Rome was Marcus Lucinius Crassus. He was a property baron, but the way he acquired property was cutthroat. He owned a fire brigade, and whenever a building in the city caught fire he and the brigade would show up. But before they attempted to put out the fire, Crassus would tell the building owner he would only put out the fire if they sold the building to him. The longer the building burned, the lower his offer would be. After the fire was put out, he would spruce up the building a bit, and then sell it back to the original owner.......for full price. So there's your answer
my family used to own the only other thing this town is known for-- Ruggles Mine: an open pit mine that was turned into a tourist attraction. i grew up going here a lot as a kid. there used to be, along the main drag of the town, across from the country store, a little rise featuring some picnic tables. it was affectionately termed "hippy hill" because there would always be some holdouts from the 60's stopping there on their motorcycles. they haven't been there in years. i still have family in the state, so I pass through every now and then, and grafton as a whole seems pretty dead compared to what i remember. finally, my family finally decided to sell the mine and it was bought by, i understand, one of these free-staters. despite being a beloved family-friendly tourist attraction, this guy is trying to turn it into some kind of compound. they really fucked up the town. it's totally different from when i was a kid 20 years ago. it was never destined to be the jewel of New England, but cmon, don't just do this to a town that doesn't want it.
@@berdyderg900HAHAHA that's really funny. i can see how it'd read like that. it was hardly an estate, it was a very modest operation that barely turned a profit. it was a big hole in the ground they charged admission for. all of the valuable materials had been extracted long before it my family came into possession of it. as i understand, we just bought it off the original owner once because it wasn't valuable anymore. my uncle who would come up with crazy get-rich-quick schemes just had the idea to turn it into a tourist attraction. if you've ever been to up that way, you'd understand immediately it's a pretty depressed area of a state that's already a shithole.
Look if it ever comes out that bears are just people who got turned that way by an ancient witches curse I ain't gonna be surprised. They are so bizarre.
You didn't know? Gen. Hongoltz-Helting led the charge to free the captive Romanovs from the Bolsheviks with his innovative "facts and logic" offensive. He failed miserably when the Red Army won the debate by pumping him full of bullets.
…off topic but i recalled Betsy DeVos talking about certain schools keeping guns on hand, ‘in case of bears’ 🤣 (it’s been a while, so correct my, kindly, please, if i’m wrong on that.)
Well she was specifically referring to semi-remote Alaskan schools, which isn't really a weird idea in itself, but she was then suggesting this in reference to the broader conversation of preventing school shootings, which is in fact bugfuck nuts.
Just finished this book. Some people aren't meant to live among others. I feel so sad for the people who already lived in Grafton, and had their lives offended by these folks. The very thought that multiple people were attacked by bears simply because residents refuse to make agreements honoring the safety of other human beings and animals is just beyond comprehension.
Are you thinking of the Mathew walther episode if so he’s not a libertarian but a catholic reactionary. Just look up chapo Mathew walther. Otherwise I don’t remember them ever debating anyone.
Their "interview" with Robbie Souve is what you're thinking of. I forget the episode number but it's their only other hostile interview besides them dunking on Matthew "Anal sex is equivocal to punching a baby" Walther. From what I remember it kinda sucked compared to the tradcath fight.
"House on fire huh? Well here's my rate. It is a bit steeper, seeing as how you didn't buy into the insurance, but we do have a number of payment plans..."
Right libertarian community: you get bears in your town. Left libertarian community: manage to hold them selves against tyrannical pro neo liberal government. (Ex: Chiapas, Mexico. Rojava, Syria.)
What neoliberals were the Rojavans fighting against? Literally their whole survival was based on political and military cover from Western neoliberal governments.
