I prefer to think of a true Libertarian as an earnest, yet naive, idealist.

I prefer to think of them that way was as well --- when I'm not thinking of them as raving lunatics. ;~))

Raving lunatics works too.

Unless, of course, one is a well-grounded, Libertarian realist such as myself...

... okay, fine, you got me. Raving lunatic works for me too!

Seriously, though, it has always been evident to me that Libertarianism, taken to its "logical" conclusion, results in anarchy. That is why absolute Libertarianism can never truly work as a form of government. But I do think that the injection of just a touch of Libertarian philosophy into our current form of government would have a positive effect.
