Big L ? I don’t know. The Libertarian party ? Anyway, what is your point ? (if you have any, that is).
I’m asking you to name the individuals you were referring to in your earlier post, when you said libertarianism overthrew monarchy. Who guided this process that was “libertarian” exactly? IOW, how can you say “libertarianism” overthrew it?

Ah, now I see. Once upon a time there was a philosophical movement which claimed that individuals had inalienable rights. People like, say, Locke or Bastiat, believed such fairy tales (as Stranger puts it) - I’m referring to them.
But actually, I don’t mind admitting that I was wrong. Libertarians didn’t overthrow monarchy. Monarchy collapsed under its own weight. Monarchs and their stupidity and greed overthrew monarchy.
Well obviously it was Bismarck that, from the grave, made the SPD-dominated Weimar Republic ruin Germany, a period the German people considered worse than the war, and thus led directly to the rise of the Nazi party. So Bismarck must be responsible for everything that followed Germany’s rapid rise in wealth, power and influence during his time in office!
