    Aristotle was a libertarian and so were our founders who created a tiny tiny govt that today's libertarians would die for!

    Sure you do. We talked about it last time.

    When the private lord decides to up your rent, you have no problem whatsoever with him resorting to use of force to throw the tenant out in the street.

    And since there are no public roads in your libertarian utopia, the private lord and throw him out of the street as well.

    But you know they did not.

    And this isn’t a debate with you. This is pointing out how moronic conservatives are.

    Libertarianism is a collection of political philosophies and movements that uphold liberty as a ... Thefirst recorded use of the term "libertarian" was in 1789, when William Belsham .

    Are you talking about trespassing? Violating the another's property? The right to eject trespassers is not unique to libertarianism. That's basic law.

    I didn't say it was unique to libertarian.

    Just pointing out the hypocrisy of your claim about how your against the use of force.

    You're all for use of force to enforce the private lord's will.

    You just don't want a government that might limit the private lord's power.

    I believe I said they oppose the use of force "to violate the person or property of one's fellow man".

    you mean to enforce natural law, the term used by Cicero and all the great Western freedom philosophers up to Locke and Jefferson.

    Exactly. And when the private lord who owns the housing ups the rend on the working guy living their, you support violating the person and property of "one's fellow man" by that the tenatns persona and his property and thowing them out in the street, though because the private lord owns the street as well, throwing the person and property of "one's fellow man" into the ditch.

    You pretend to be so righteous with your philosophy about how "it's wrong to use force to violate the person or property of one's fellow man."

    But that's bullshit. The truth is you have no problem whatsoever with the use of force to impose the private lord's will over the "person or property of one's fellow man".

    You just don't want a government to be able to limit or regulate the private lord's power.

    Sounds like utopia. If you're the private lord. Just like in the good old days of fuedalism.
