Rothbard was about as far from being utopian as anyone could be. He laid out the plan for repudiating the national debt. He never thought the oligarchs running the nation today would ever accept it.
There in lays the rub. The Oligarchy needs to be removed from power. That is the only way America will survive as a nation of laws with individual liberties and with free market captialism. But, few Americans know or accept this.
Our government, big business, Wall Street, banks, unions, pharma, big nonprofits, are all corrupt and all part of the crony capitalist system the oligarchs have put in place. The corruption exceeds all other nations in history. And when it falls, which it will, the damage will likely exceed anything ever known before. And your beloved social welfare programs will be a thing of the past.
The USA and the rest of the world are rapidly descinding back to the historic norm of two classes....one, the elites with all the wealth and power...and the other being the vast majority of people as serfs.
But you keep on hating the TP...even though it is the only organization demanding change...real change...not Big Ear's kind of change.
