Professor John Hasnas tackles the question of how it feels to be a libertarian:
I’ll tell you. It feels bad. Being a libertarian means living with an almost unendurable level of frustration. It means being subject to unending scorn and derision despite being inevitably proven correct by events. How does it feel to be a libertarian? Imagine what the internal life of Cassandra must have been and you will have a pretty good idea.

Imagine spending two decades warning that government policy is leading to a major economic collapse, and then, when the collapse comes, watching the world conclude that markets do not work.
Yep. A big part of why I'm posting less is I'm tired of the damn BS and I don't want to do another "that's not true" post.
