Most libertarians would argue that since liberty is inevitable, such invented things as nation-states, the arbitrary borders and common currency that allegedly binds us..., will either adapt or disappear. Are Conservatives the ones trying to prevent the end of the nation state and libertarians the one's who think the end is a foregone conclusion?
I ask only that Conservatives be clear as to what they are 'conserving' and ask the same of libertarians, to be honest if the ends we are looking to achieve.
Reality is relentless---inevitable...good for some--bad for others.
Life choices--BEHAVIOR pretty much determine that...example too!
As a conservative, I say that being conservative should mean "conserving" the Constitution. But conserving this document and its true intent is not the same as saying the so-called nation-state will wither away on the vine.
Now that sounds like utopianism.
