The law makers have to determine the 'compling reason' for a specific law, . . .

And what's a "compelling reason"? Whatever five or more unelected, "progressive," pro-sodomy, pro-abortion, pro-affirmative action, anti-gun, elitist, superlegislating SCOTUS justices say it is--or isn't.

SCOTUS epitomizes the all-powerful federal tyrant, disenfrachising the other 270,000,000 US citizens in one fell swoop from the great experiement of self-government.

You worship raw power in the hands of an unelected five-headed tyrant. That's not libertarianism by any stretch of the imagination. You are one dense nut, tpaine.

Libertarians such as some posting here are like a compass that doesn't point north any more. Such a compass has all the little points, letters, degrees, the glass, moves around when you move it so it looks accurate. It's just that it is never accurate - except once in a while by accident. They are hollow, empty inside. They have a core of nothingness - because they do not have a conviction in an absolute. Although some of them have said they are Christian, maybe that breed are different?

Many are good at juggling words and are very intelligent, very intellectual. It's like being very good at grammar, speechifying, curlicues of handwriting - but empty of vital meaning. I don't even try to debate with them because it reminds me of trying to talk with very articulate mental patients. They argue one point, you argue back, and they reply with something that has not the least reference to what you said. It's kind of psychotic.

If somehow they could make their own little country, it would be the most hellish chaos and within a short time a totalitarian hell. No doubt about it. They are living in a belladonna alternate reality.
