Please, I am not about to write a formal critique of American Libertarianism on a message board.
In short, I am skeptical that Libertarianism can deliver and protect those values anymore than the major parties can deliver on theirs. I am also skeptical that those values can insure any more peace, happiness, or efficiency for both society and the individual than a totalitarian state.
As for Libertarianism in the United States of America today, I can't see how that would manifest in anything other than corporate confederacy.
