We need to shake off atomistic libertarianism in order to get together and do anything about it. What would make it difficult is that in the American psyche, the discernment and the abiding of truth have long been obscured by arbitrary self-assertion and a formidable sense of revoltedness that holds the ego in very high esteem. Many people assume life is one big interplay of Hegelian conflicts between people with ulterior motives (this is a worldview promoted by school and big business alike), notwithstanding our legal tradition which stretches back many centuries and points to higher things.
It is when liberals are involved.
