For Christmas, his parents just bought him a Fisher Price briefcase complete with stock portfolio coloring book and a toy Motorolla that says "Buy low, sell high!" when you press the button.

From the article:

Quote:
And this is the role, the essential role, of libertarian intellectuals: to change the ideological culture in ways that make people aware of the antisocial nature of the state, and how it always stands outside of society, no matter how democratic it may claim to be.
This is preposterous. Capitalism is the prime mover of anti-sociality.
