The idea of you being libertarians and showing concern for other people outside of your Hestonesque compounds is a little strange to me. Libertarians are the pinnacle of selfishness, in my experience.

Since its your Blog, why not grow the nuts to just say “I just plain don’t like them brown folks coming into MY country.”

The “illegal alien” idea is a convienient way for you to express your insecurities and nonsensical fears. It is also a convienient method for you to dehumanize people to support your own crackpot ideas.

How much is being allotted to you brave American Heroes ™ to build your Mexican Defense Shield along our once great nation’s southern border? 60 BILLION was it? Good plan! Now all you need is another 120 Billion to fill in the 1300 total mile gaps in it. They must call them “minutemen” because it takes about a minute to scribble down such brilliant ideas on a Denny’s napkin.

I got an another idea you guys can lobby for… you should see if you can use your Super Patriot powers to have that icky French Statue torn down in New York Harbor. You know the one? It’s the one with the torch…

Relax a minute. Take deep breaths and count to ten.

Do you still want to shoot him?

Hey undergrounders! We sometimes read your site too. It’s been commented on in:

“Traitors to the people. I like that.”

and

“Liberals Own Guns, Too”

Besides, even if you were okay with minimal, localized, gov’t (minarchism), I still don’t think the answer lies in being overly selective with one’s immigration policy relative to a poorer neighbor. Rather, a reduction in gov’t services, including land, available to the public would be more effective in reducing squatters and freeloaders, leaving only those who come to perform economically beneficial transactions. And in this case, the marginal productivity argument is devastating to a anti-immigrationist, since I don’t know any of that camp that wants to mow my lawn or cook my tacos for as little money as I can negotiate to pay Mexicans that I transact with daily. Less state intervention on the border benefits my pocketbook in two ways, since I am no longer financing state aggression, which in turn imposes higher costs on immigrant labor.

Similarly, I find that the argument that allowing more immigration will destroy the ‘cultural integrity’ of an area to be unconvincing. People with the self-reliance to brave an unfriendly culture for the chance of greater income in a future period are rarely the frivolous types. I remember reading a survey that estimated that the average time for a Hispanic family to become completely culturally integrated in their American surroundings was three generations, with the first and second having generally better work ethic than the third, only when they are Americanized does their work ethic disappear. What I’m trying to get at is that the State is far more destructive to the positive traits of a culture than any immigrant could ever be.

Finally, let it be said that ‘culture’ is a mere concept, not a piece of property to be owned, and one of the more odious arguments for State aggression. I may disapprove of this or that societal trait, and be very vocal about it, and use all my fiduciary resources to attempt to restrict the market options (through competition) available to those I find distasteful. In the end, however, State aggression against the peaceful is illegitimate, no matter what language they speak or what pigment affects their skin, and I would have no part in it.

run, don’t walk from that site. there is nothing good to find there.

Seem to be a fair amount of Ayn Rand ‘bots there. What I love about them is their humanity and their realism. LOL!

Geez. I wish these……people would tell us whether they are Libertarians or Conservatives. It’s just so damn hard to tell the difference anymore.

Not bad for creepy creeps who only support not paying taxes when it’s the other party holding office…
