        I misread libertarians as 'librarians' and got very confused wondering about that new professional stoush for a moment... glad to have misread!

        Ironic to see them inadvertently advocate for expansion of govt services..

        The same people who basically claim the liberty to spread infection. They could, by extension, almost just as well claim the right to throw rocks from the Eiffel tower, or to trigger a partially loaded revolver ("Russian roulette") pointed at strangers.

        The range of views of those in the libertarian movement (broadly defined) is far broader than that. In fact, the AIER people are pissed about the GBD being called libertarian because “most libertarians are against it.”

        Yes. Wrote about this on March 26. Official report on April 28. Again on June 2nd...and again and again and again. "No, we don't have resources for that."

        Libertarians not the only ones concerned. Skyrocketing poverty, inequality, malnutrition, mental health, cancer, state intrusion on daily life, suspension of democracy and basic rights, destroyed education. Leftists of all stripes should be enraged, yet I see little recognition
