Life is full of compromise, a child that looks at its parents and knows it must walk, must compromise and crawl before it can walk. Tomorrow is not certain no matter what policy is implemented. Chris Actually I believe that is a good definition of Libertarian Activist ethics. Libertarianism is a freedom oriented train, many of its passengers have varying societal goals. And we ride together to accomplish what we can towards the ends of Liberty.
People are free to jump on and off according to their wants and needs.
The goal is elusive, idealist and utopian a fine dream to reach for but one that may never be realized fully. But government cannot ever be fully morally ethical, the power given to government is amoral and needs to be constantly watched and kept in check. Total freedom or liberty is not found in nature, neither will it be found in mankind. But taxation and the monopoly state are not immutable laws of nature. There have been times where they have not existed, and there can be again.
