I doubt that I would like a libertarian society, but I needn't worry because it is wholly utopian (the word means "nowhere"). However, utopian, thought can be dangerous. The desired Utopia cannot he achieved: but the destruction of an existing society may be. And it is quite likely to be succeeded by a worse one.

The funny thing is, libertarianism is quite dystopian. It seeks to maximize individual liberty. it seeks no desired outcome.
