Surely you're not suggesting we have an outright crook on this board?
A couple of thoughts come to mind. The first being that there is now a second generation of teen and twenty-something "modal libertarians." You can find them on
http://slashdot.org and related websites and blogs. The second is that I find it ironic that a writer whose philosophical bent essentially developed as a reaction to Stalinsm has spawned a cult with such communistic ideals. My college had a huge Rand cult, and they always scared me.
This is by no means a majority of Libertarians in the US. Probably the bulk of the party is made up of "sagebrush" Libertarians, who tend to be conservative Christians. My very, very conservative grandmother often votes LP (I think she did in '88 and '92, when the Republican alternative was George "New World Order" Bush).
