QUOTE: If libertarians are correct in claiming that they understand how best to organize a modern society, how is it that not a single country in the world in the early twenty-first century is organized along libertarian lines?... Libertarian theorists have the luxury of mixing and matching policies to create an imaginary utopia. A real country must function simultaneously in different realms—defense and the economy, law enforcement and some kind of system of support for the poor. Being able to point to one truly libertarian country would provide at least some evidence that libertarianism can work in the real world..... if libertarianism is not only appealing but plausible, why hasn’t any country anywhere in the world ever tried it? salon/2013/06/04/the_question_libertarians_just_cant_answer/
