    The problem is that American Libertarians aren’t libertarian. They’re masquerading economic liberals.

    The reason their government has failed and always will fail. Is because they are against government itself. All but the most dogmatic, ideological, and importantly antisocial anarchist and actual libertarians recognize the need for government and it’s existence. They just believe it should be largely flat, answerable, and as much as possible based in consent. Even national/federal goverment is acceptable depending on structure and ability.

    American Libertarians only support government that protects their personal privilege. And nothing else.

    And while it’s possible for any group to fail. No other group self sabotages so completely from the start.
