Thank you for posting this article.

I read it yesterday or the day before at Lew Rockwell’s site, but that is a site that is not welcome here. Then I saw it at another site, OpEd, and started a thread, and it was rejected because that site was not welcome here either.

I didn’t know Paul Craig Roberts had his own webpage. That’s wonderful, because it was frustrating not to be able to share his excellent article here. He was President Reagan’s Asst. Secretary of the Treasure, and his writing is worth reading.

An interesting note for consideration is this:

Some people smear and demean libertarians. While some criticism may be partially justified, it may well be short-sighted. Why? Because, in continuing to read Lew Rockwell’s site of interesting articles authored by a smattering of different authors, I have noticed an important point, which would otherwise have been missed.

The point is this: MANY libertarians have moved CLOSER to the positions of many on Free Republic. MANY libertarians support Donald Trump.

Not to take advantage of acknowledging support from otherwise non-supporting groups is unwise and costly. It is much preferable to welcome support in the name of UNITY.

DJT welcomes Bernie supporters. I welcome the support of libertarians.

It might be beneficial to our cause to review the “not welcome” stance on several of these websites.

Unity is what is going to be needed more than ever.

Capital L Libertarians have become just lazy Democrat dopers. Presumably, actual libertarian ideas will make a comeback some day.
