| Now that this thread has been derailed onto the Endless Siding of Ideological Dispute, I have to say that Sonart's right. The Libertarian "position" on pollution is just another contrived soapbox. It completely ignores the issue in order to make the Same Old Point. Yes, pathetic. Remember Ronald Reagan? Didn't he say that the biggest offenders were trees? So why not Big Government?
This indicates to me that the Libertarian party isn't interested in the real world, just in harping on and on about its tired old simplistic pet ideological peeves.
And the solution to athlete's foot? Why, abolish government, naturally! What else?
