RE: The Bigger the Government The Smaller The Citizen

in #economy7 years ago (edited)

Neat post. As a classical liberal, I agree with most of the points made in the video. I'd offer up for discussion though: the statements that prima facie "no one disagrees the government must do certain things," and "there are things the government obviously must do" would be disputed by anarchists of all stripes, and obviously there is a healthy and growing anarcho-capitalist movement within the libertarian community.

Sort:  

Anarchists can say anything they want; it's a free medium.

Oh I am aware - I also understand this was a Prager institute video, so they know their audience specifically and the grandiose audience generally. Just pointing out that prima facie statements sometimes are capable of being just as untrue as they could be true. This is a case where I think they were wishy-washy.
