As @FOS mentioned this at least 3x in debates with other members (like LibDave 2-3 years ago, to which I was a witness), power is a zero sum game. 

People who proclaim the dire need to "reduce the power of the state" always have a hidden motive in mind (or are naive teenagers who finished Atlas Shrugged and tried their first cigarette at a friend's Sweet 16 party before getting wasted on booze).

Motives, which, to nobody's shock, will not benefit you.

The <[( JWO )]> was kicked out by European monarchs over the course of centuries. Raw state power. 

Meanwhile, under "liberal, freeDUMB-loving democracies," they have been allowed to thrive. Not once have they been expelled successfully.

Libertarianism = "Liberal, freeDUMB-loving democracies" minus <labor protections, environmental laws, state pensions or even minimal investment in public services> on steroids
When the [[[ACLU and SPLC]]] were first launched they both looked to the Casual    Image   Observer to be as pure as the driven snow.
They both claim to be "fighting against totalitarianism" ...yet they are working 24 / 7 [along with the [[[ADL]]] to make it punishable by law for the two  of us to be having the discussion that we are having right now..
