Freedom Is For Everyone

|

A reporter for the Missoula Independent tries to sum up libertarianism:

In the end, it is the American dream that is ultimately the goal of the Free State Project: the idea that individuals should be free to fly an F-15 fighter over Montana, shooting at clouds while snorting coke and shagging a prostitute and no one can tell you "no." Or the dream could be raising and teaching one's kids alone in the countryside on a diet of Whitman and the Bible without worrying about child services knocking on the door to see what's going on. It could mean a hundred different things to a hundred different people, and that's the whole point.

Not such different people, though—he also claims, more snidely than accurately, that libertarians all have money.
