They want to get rid of the government, but they see nothing wrong with corporations taking over the country and fucking over all the people who don't have enough money. RW libertarians are really fucked in the head.

LW libertarians, on the other hand, are basically anarchists. They think we can get rid of the government and just run everything ourselves. They think we could share with each other and make the world a place where equality and fairness rule. It's a utopian philosophy, and this world, I'm afraid, will never be a utopia.

Maybe humans will evolve into better beings eventually, but to do that we're going to have to weed out a lot of inborn flaws. As things stand today, anarchism would be doomed to fail.
