I said:
Libertarian principles mesh perfectly with Hayeks thoughts.


"Not at all". - roscoe, says in another irrational flat denial of the facts. - Hayek was a libertarian in principle.

"For Hayek, like Burke, believed that the institutions of freedom he cherished emerged from an undesigned and spontaneous evolutionary process utterly dependent upon the distilled knowledge embedded within inherited traditions and institutions. He was captivated by the wondrous order-within-complexity generated by this suprarational social process and wished to defend it against that rationalistic mentality which refuses to comprehend the significance of tradition and custom."

All of the libertarians on this site could, imo, agree with the above statement. - There is absolutely nothing in it that contradicts libertarian principle.
You could try to counter my statement with a logical argument roscoe, but I know you will not. I await your snappy one liner.

There is absolutely nothing in it that contradicts libertarian principle.

No prohibitions on prostitution?

No prohibitions on pornography?

No prohibitions on intoxicants?

No public parks?

No public schools?

No public roads?

No taxes?

No merit in your false assertions.

Nothing new.
