Default Re: Why Is AC/Libertarianism So Bothersome?

You completely missed it, again. The point was the human condition itself - and the primal, underlying neurosis.

I never suggested that state government (or any form of government, from AC perfection to representational democracy) should be a substitute of the primal family, or act as a soothing remedy to the human condition. I humbly point out the need to address that condition head on.

In my view the best way to deal with neuroses, is to recognize them and strive to eliminate or reduce them internally.

The remedy for a neurosis is not to strive to bring the outside world into conformation with the neurosis, but rather to look inward and attack the root of the problem. Since neuroses are inherently insatiable, only the latter course of action holds any promise or potential of real success. All attempts to bring the outside world into conformation with a neurosis are doomed to failure (and will probably create other problems as well).
