My problem is with the author's opening salvo -- that statists "always seem to get it wrong." Such qualified statements are a sure sign that a strawman is soon to follow...

Out of curiosity, if I said, "Pedophiles always get it wrong..." exactly what straw-man would you expect me to follow up with? (Also note that "statist" and "minarchist" are two very different things.)

Well, to begin with, Our Lamentable Author said that "Statists always seem to get it wrong...." That little word, "seem," is his little escape hatch. He's a charlatan, our author, and this piece is crap.
