Defender of Libertarianism

Yesterday I pointed you to a scathing article that compared Libertarians to Marxist and wrote a little retort. This spurred my brother and I into a little exchange.

Anyway, Daniel McCarthy of "The American Conservative" retorts yesterday's article and provides a rousing defense of Libertarianism. This guy much more elequotenly defends the concept of freedom and limited government. I love his ending paragraph:
A libertarian order is not coming any time soon, but it should be plain to anyone who undertakes the investigation that the solution to war, bureaucracy, taxation, personal irresponsibility, and the rot of culture is not more government, it’s less.
A good read.
