Are libertarians smart people who are ideologically handicapped? (ethics, Murray, supporters)

That argument has to be made first.

You're demanding someone have their money taken. Now justify it and explain to me why you think it's the best way to get things done.

You see? This is what I'm talking about.

Why should they?

You're basing your argument on ideology, not logic. This is why people laugh at you self-proclaimed libertarians.

Huh?

It is "ideology" that assumes that education MUST be tax funded.

I'm asking YOU to justify that assumption. This is not "ideology", it is basic reasoning. So, explain it.

Oh, and I'm not a "self proclaimed libertarian".

I'm trying to get YOU write a coherent argument. So far, you haven't.

I'm sorry, but he wasn't making an argument; he asked a question. The natural state of the world is to be without government schooling, therefore the onus is on the supporter to meet the burden of proof to justify their claim.

No

He's only going to start the whole "tax is theft" argument.

I'm not into ideological arguments.

Well, so far you haven't been able to make a single coherent argument.

Your assumptions about me have all been wrong.

And you can't explain your OWN ideas.
