Politicophile,
I agree with pretty much all you've said.
My main beef with the libertarians is that they want to remove ALL security nets and I know from personal experience that that isn't realistic or desirable.
For example, OSHA and the related safety regulations (29 CFR 1910) are very much needed since too many employers have shown that they are capable of putting their employee's safety at serious risk to earn another 0.01 cents/share.
