    When the crisis hits (which in Argentina’s case is the default status) and the contradictions heighten, libertarians eventually have to choose between free markets or free people.

    And the “free helicopter rides” jokes they’ve been making for the last decade tells me how wrong they tend to choose.

      That last thing is only from Hans-Hermann Hoppe fans circles. They are not strictly ancaps even.

      There’s the name “paleolibertarian” for them, which I’m not sure is correct, stuff like “genetic aristocracy” doesn’t seem libertarian at all for me.
