Libertarianism Supports Tyranny
It is contended that Libertarianism is not really in favor of liberty. Rather, it prefers Big Government interventionism to advance its nihilistic values.

Interesting opinions. I wish you had included your references so that I could have done more research after reading your article.

Sorry that I had disappointed you. I apologize if I failed. I was not posting an academic dissertation. Please, if you wish, do the useful research on your own; if anything I’ve said is factually, empirically, incorrect, I will then post an article correcting any wrong assertion. What I had to say is not a matter of opinion; I stated facts that can be independently verified through research.
For example, almost all people would be shocked to learn that John Locke – of all people – actually wrote a defense of SLAVERY!!! Go read his 4th Chapter of his Second Treatise! THIS IS NOT MY OPINION.

Once got to the abortion part I stopped reading. It is not intervention to allow the “killing” of pieces of meat without any brains as of yet, it is intervention to say that you can’t. A cow is more alive then a fetus under three month, yet we allow the killing of cows.

Human beings tend to conceive other human beings, as has been true for thousands of years, etc. Besides that, there is an ever growing plethora of scientific evidence regarding the humanity of babies within wombs.
Having the State provide a (new-found supposed) sanction for abortion on a limitless and massive scale with no regard for the humanity of human beings (see first sentence), is a clear act of statism pure and simple; it is a manifest act of true government interventionism that is not mentioned, by the way, anywhere in the US Constitution as being a supposed right.

Historical reviews of a philosophy or belief is a poor way to explain modern philosophies or beliefs. For example: The Democratic Party used to be the small government, states rights party. On the issue of slavery, they wanted it left to the state in the north and ignored all together by the south. The Republicans believed that the federal government had authority over all states…Do you see how quickly a philosophy can change? If you ask most libertarians about Roe V. Wade today, they will say it was a bad choice on the government’s part to intervene. I agree with Mel, without sources this shouldn’t be taken very seriously.
