Those organizations help keep trade free internationally. Complete withdrawal of US sanctions internationally? Abolition of antitrust acts? Of net neutrality? You can't possibly think that's not radical.
What most libertarians don't realize is that as your individual rights increase, so do those of corporations, thanks to the Fourteenth Amendment. Corporate power is the least democratic because corporations, once granted limitless charters (thanks to the Ron Paul's would-be abolition of antitrust laws), wouldn't give a rat's ass about our opinion.
Active government ("big, bad feds", as you Paul-bots like to call it) is more democratic in the sense that you can vote for your lawmakers.Quote from: FliesLikeABrick on February 07, 2008, 10:56:30 pmquoted for truth. All he wants to do is go back to running this country the way it was supposed to be.Reactionary action is never a good idea. We're supposed to progress forwards, not recede back into the dark ages.
