I become libertarian when I see people& #39;s resourcefulness around stupid rules.
Seriously this is what Libertarians get absolutely right: People are resourceful, especially when faced with obstacles placed on them by the powerful
You see it every day in poor communities who are forced to improvise, or jerry-rig stuff
And then they are mocked by rich for it

Libertarian impulse to recognize people& #39;s resourcefulness & consequently minimize regulation seems to only get enacted for powerful.
Big business is deregulated while the poor are over-regulated.
The deregulation of Wall Street happened at same time as Broken Windows policy

Their views only seem to get turned into policy for rich. That should concern them.
