Types of Libertarian Morons

All Libertarians are morons; there are just different types of stupid.

America is probably one of the only countries in the world where Libertarianism has any kind of sway at all, although I understand that for some reason, it is relatively popular in Costa Rica for some reason, possibly because the country is heavily White. Whites are the only race on Earth who will heavily go in for Libertarianism, because Whites are much more selfish and individualistic than any other race. European, Australian, Canadian, and New Zealander Whites are not prone to selfishness of individualism.

Selfish and individualistic politics is popular among White elites in Latin America, but only in places where Whites are a minority.

In Argentina, Chile and Uruguay, where Whites or near-Whites are more or less a majority, selfish and individualistic politics is far less popular, since your average White person there is just an ordinary working class person, not a member of an elite group.

Nevertheless, the Cone nations have been ruled by a particularly vicious White elite for a long time. This elite has spent much of the last 40 years slaughtering the working class Whites of the Cone countries in order to maintain their outrageous and feudal-style wealth. As a consequence, White politics in the Cone is polarized into Hard Left and Hard Right, in a way similar to some Mediterranean countries like Italy, Portugal and Spain.

Small government is popular with White elites, as this philosophy in general is only popular with elites around the world. The German Social Democrats used to have a saying, “Only the rich can afford a poor state.” Of course this is true, and this is why the rich the world over, especially in the 3rd World, tend to favor a minimal state. Hatred of taxation is also typical of elites the world over, particularly in the 3rd World.

In general, ordinary people the world over do not favor small government or hate taxation. In that sense, Americans, particularly White Americans, are very strange. The views of White Americasns are more typical of world elites than the ordinary working class people of the world. It’s as if your ordinary working class White person identifies more with his class enemies, the rich, than with his own class. Working class Whites also see themselves as elites, which is odd, since they are not elites, and in fact they are extremely oppressed by their own elites.

This strange philosophy probably has its roots in the Frontier Ethic, the break from colonialism, and the radical individualism that has long characterized White American culture.

As America becomes increasingly non-White, this view will decline. Asians are not radical individualists, and Asian nations are not characterized by small government and low taxation. Hispanics and Blacks are collectivist peoples who also have no interest in small government and low taxation. Black nations are like Asian nations in that there is no interest in Libertarian-style governance.

These trends show no sign of changing in the future. Even as Asians, Hispanics and Blacks make good money and move up in the world, they retain their collectivist roots.

The future does not look good for Libertarian types in the US in the long term, though they may make some gains in the short term.

The future looks bleak for Libertarianism in the world at large, as most nations have no interest in small government or low taxation.

Seen more properly, the vast majority of the world’s people, and the overwhelming majority of the working class, are collectivist people.

  1. Libertarianism is a way around Diversity and lack of race realism. If the government wants to throw money away on misguided education programs and require banks to lend to minorities equally often, then get rid of government.

    “Democracies perish when the people realize they can vote themselves money” is variously attributed. As long as the coalition of minorities and women (except those married to a white male) has enough power to out-vote white men, the government will keep expanding to their benefit.

      1. Cyrus,

        Ah, because you have some kind of vested interest in the banks over the people?

        I am not sure what BruceD is thinking but our banking system is far away from a Libertarian ideal. Some Libertarians would have fractional reserve banking down away with. (Not practical in the modern era but basically, no banks would have failed if they had not been using a fractional reserve system…)

  2. Yes, a damn shame we can’t just exterminate collectivists. That’s all right, I’ll have to find ways to extract more from the system than it takes from me.

    1. “Yes, a damn shame we can’t just exterminate collectivists. ”

      Uh oh. You used the word “we”:. Guess you’re out of the rugged individualists club now.

      “That’s all right, I’ll have to find ways to extract more from the system than it takes from me.”

      Chances are that you already have.

    2. All right, that does it, Texan, you’re all hat and no cattle. On top of that, you banned. You sound stressed. Why don’t you take a vacation at George Bush’s ranch?

    My main beef with big government is that if people are require to provide for one another, then they are interdependent, and therefore collectively affected by one anothers decisions. If the government, and by extension the taxpayer is required to cover such expenses as health care and education, then the government has the right to regulate the behavior of its citizens. If the government is required to prvide free health care, then they have the right to ban the use of cigarettes or require that its citizens maintain a strict diet so to prevent heart disease. This may also get the government involved in ethical issues such as quality of life of elderly, which may cross the lines of separation between church and state. If the taxpayer is required to provide for others children, then they have a vested interest in those children’s futures, and thus have a say in how they are raised and have the right to label other parents as irresponsible.
    Secondly, not everyone desires or benefits from the services the government has to offer. What benefits could you offer those who choose to deny certain public services?
    Please don’t ban me.

    1. I do hold progressive views on issues such as labor laws, minimum wage, government intervention of big corportions so that small businesses can prosper etc.

    2. “My main beef with big government is that if people are require to provide for one another, then they are interdependent, and therefore collectively affected by one anothers decisions”

      ?!

      Do you actually think that you’re not affected by other people’s decisions if you don’t have government programs? That’s crazy.

      The more I hear about libertarians and Ayn Rand types, the more they sound like sociopaths to me. That, and the fact that they are all so melodromatic. It seems that to them you’re either totally into laissez faire, or you;re some raving communist. It sounds like listening to and economic version of the Westboro Baptist Church.

  4. I’m not a libertarian Ayn Rand type, I just think that the welfare state and certain government services has a lot of flaws. I do support more proportionate wealth distribution through higher minimum wage and greater employee benefits.

    I would love to provide free health care for children, disabled and elderly but that would be a double edged sword. If emotionally or financially unstable people and religious fundamentalists are guaranteed free health care for their children, that would be an incentive for them to have a boat load of children.

  5. I do wonder if the health care debate could be made to go away by creating a health plan for children that was simply a government program, not an individual mandate. Children’s health care needs are pretty generic across the income spectrum and are inelastic with income — once sufficiency is reached, people don’t spend a lot more on their children’s health care as a way of enjoying great wealth.

    I do fear that the Obama plan will very quickly go from being an individual mandate to becoming just another transfer program. But in the case of children, I could live with that.

  6. Intrguiging, you’re a very thoughtful and articulate anti-capitalist, if I’m not a homeowner and making six figures with at least $ .5M in net assets by 40, I’ll seriously consider converting to socialism

    1. An ambitious late 20s with plenty of education (gaining more), little debt, 50K income, who hasn’t reached his prime yet, and works in an industry that pays well

      Thanks for your interest

        1. And you’re a guy who understands the idea of using an internet pseudonym to maintain anonymity

    1. Only the name is fake, but I’m not going to fight with you about this, I know my background, believe me or don’t believe, we’ll still both have to go work tomorrow, peace

      1. Of course, “Louie.” Only your name is fake. It is not like we do not meet your background type here, all the time…You must be very special.

  7. This “class conflict” can be resolved if whites just accept that they have been racists and make amends. Blacks are not demanding that whites hand over power, what we blacks are demanding is that race be restructured around a white/nonwhite dichotomy and that racial issues be restructured to fit current demographics. The notion that whites include non-european descendent peoples like arabs and iranians is racist nonsense. History has defined white to equal european.

    1. “what we blacks are demanding is that race be restructured around a white/nonwhite dichotomy”

      In other words “H8 YT”. It’s typical of blacks to try and drag non-blacks into their little “gibs me dat” whining schemes. We’ll just see if and to what extent it actually works.

      1. It’s typical of blacks to try and drag non-blacks into their little “gibs me dat” whining schemes.

        Indeed. That’s where all this “people of color” rhetoric comes in. They’re basically trying to enlist allies in their fight against YT.

        We’ll just see if and to what extent it actually works.

        It does work to a certain extent. Certain Asians such as Frank Wu, and bloggers like Zuky are examples of non-whites adopting the whole black grievance formula to suit their own interests.

        However, based on my own experience with “people of color” (primarily Asians and to a smaller extent Hispanics), I don’t believe that most of them go along with blacks, and for the most part they look down on blacks.

        I mean, what does a Taiwanese immigrant or Korean American from Irvine have in common with your average DeShawn?

    2. In the US, “white” is apparently both a race and a culture. The ethnic dimension of American whiteness seems to draw heavily upon Christianity and Enlightenment philosophy. Thus, even if the genetics studies indicate that Arabs and Iranians are racially similar to European-descended Americans, if they practice Islam they would not fulfill the cultural requirements for being white.

  8. The only thing that black americans want it to be left alone. We are americans like you we want jobs, family and careers. A sense of belonging in a diverse country as ours. Stop speaking for us. Stop telling us who we will vote for and stop lying and saying we will riot in the streets if welfare is taken away from us. We are in every job market their is. Just l eave us alone .

  9. What? Except for Native Americans and a trivial fraction of ethnic Chinese who take trace their ancestry to railroad laborers, there’s no other ethnic group to which American whites conceivable owe “amends.”

    The suggestion above seems more like a strategic move to enlarge the pro-diversity electorate who will vote themselves benefits, primarily at the expense of whites.

    1. “and a trivial fraction of ethnic Chinese who take trace their ancestry to railroad laborers”
      Why should these people be owed any amends. They were not forced over here. YOu could say they were treated bad, but so were many european immigrants too. Is something owed to descendents of polish steelworkers or the descendents? Why isn’t anything owed to the non-chinese immigrants who also worked on these railroads? These chinese immigrants aren’t owed anything more than anyone else who has ever immigrated here.

      “The suggestion above seems more like a strategic move to enlarge the pro-diversity electorate who will vote themselves benefits, primarily at the expense of whites”

      Exactly. They’re just using new words to promote old “gibs me dat”. If anything, whites should be somewhat glad that some of these groups are here and successful because it makes the black claim of “We po’ cuz u rayciss!!!!” look even more ridiculous.

  10. Libertarianism in america would not be accepted because “libertarianism” has historically been just a code word for totalitarian conservative fascism. If libertarians gained control of the country you would not see a shrinking of government but rather a centralization of government more complete than anything obama or even bush would have dreamed of.

  11. Regarding Immigration the main problem whites have of being unable to enlist black support for anti-immigration is that whites fear immigration more because it is causing the collapse of their precious black/white binary than they do of the obvious economic damage that illegal immigration does to all native-born americans with the exception of the elite. If anything whites should be saying hallelujah that the black/white binary is crumbling and try to court black support for anti-immigration measures. There is a sizable conservative element in the black community who would support just that.
