Any discussion of external costs always gives Libertarians cognitive dissonance!

I was actually quoting some of the Founding Fathers. “Our Constitution was made for moral and religious people,” stated John Adams. George Washington said, “Of all the dispositions and habits that lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.“ James Madison agreed: ”We have staked the future upon our capacity to sustain ourselves according the Ten Commandments of God.“

But I suppose a libertarian could be forgiven for confusing the Founding Fathers with Mussolini! After all, they are all a bunch of statists, right?
