@BlueVeins However we are told by some who really don't care if the law is broken.....it is OK to pay a whore with campaign finance funds for pussy.. and then pay her off with more of it to keep quiet.... and that is fine.

@AgapeLove I wouldn't say I'm a libertarian, but my objections to libertarianism are all practical as opposed to philosophical. In other words, I support the goal of libertarianism -- to establish maximum freedom and opportunity -- unconditionally. I just don't think deregulation and low taxation are always the best ways to get there. Conventional libertarian thought accounts for negative freedoms, but it does not account for positive freedoms and is therefore unable to establish a balance that maximizes their sum. It also fails to adequately account for economic externalities in a way that doesn't amount to extortion, nor certain irrational characteristics of human psychology.
