The Core Libertarian Principle

By The Daily Dish
Apr 25 2007, 7:38 AM ET

In a fascinating story by Brian Doherty about one Leonard Read:

His inspirational summation of what libertarianism was all about was "anything that's peaceful."

No wonder the alliance is over. (By the way, Brian includes a word in the article I have never come across before: "foofewaw". It seems as if it's a synonym for kerfuffle. But I guess he could have just made it up. He's a libertarian, after all.)

(Hat tip: Glenn Reynolds.)
