If the libertarians really got their way

Re: If the libertarians really got their way

Libertarianism, i.e. Don't-Worry-Be-Happy-ism.

BREAKING NEWS: Rumsfeld is still an idiot.

I don't see the connection with libertarianism.

You should.

Only anarcho-capitalists are that naive. For a good look of a libertarian Iraq, look at Vernon Smith's model.

the original aid package included $100 million to support the writing of a constitution and the holding of national elections

Okay, I get how holding an election would cost lots of money, but what the hell is the cost of writing a constitution? You get a few guys together in a room who know their shit and are interested in the well-being of the nation, let them talk for a while, and you've got a constitution. Do they need a million dollars worth of beer and popcorn while they're discussing it or what?
