    I just saw the description of the . Why?

    To begin with, the description of the video says "Everyone's favorite subversive intellectual cuts through the right-wing rhetoric". First, Noam Chomsky is not like by everyone. Second, libertarianism is not right-wing, or is it from any "wing".

    Then he says that those who beleive in the division of labour and markets are stupid, which is something very pathethic to be said be someone who thinks that is very intelligent or that believes is a great intellectual. Then he says that true libertarianism are the libertarian socialists, which is not true, because there is also the austro-libertarianism (which is more popular). then he says that libertarianism defends the tirany of bussiness, which is non-sense, because libertarianism defends the liberty of the individual and if bussiness provoke crimes, the small government intervenes trougth the judicial system (remember, libertarianism is not anarchism).

    He then speaks that some bussiness receive subsidies and money form the government. Yes, Chomskey, I agree with you. That is bad. That is why I believe in a small government, that gives no subsidies or bail-outs.

    And the best of all, the guy who made the video shows some imaes about 1984, like is trying to say that capitalists are for a society simillar to that work of fiction. Only if he knew that 1984 is actually against a form of socialism (stalinism).

    In conclusion, Chomskey is a man who has a big imagination, that sees capitalism has "the big satan, responsible for everything that is bad in the world", and to that, denies reality, rationalism and historicall facts (like the fact that capitalism is responsible for the biggest imrpovement in the standart of living in the history of mankind).

    A man who says something like "In comparison to the conditions imposed by U.S. tyranny and violence, East Europe under Russian rule was practically a paradise", who is against pornography and considers himself to be a "libertarian" ( libertarian socialist), I believe does not deserves attention from anyone.

    It's a smart guy, just not very rational. What he means with liberalism, though, is neo-liberalism. But the guy who made the video must be very stupid.

    You can't judge and place an idea or a view based on the information presented, by anybody, at any point in time. Nor can I, but I can still oppose it and be upset by it.

    You are the worst Porkchop ever.

    I can assure you that he and I posted quite separately. Though I would be happy to have a debate on the individualism of twins, and whether we can be counted as separate people.
