| 19. what about left libertarianism |

You and i agree, based on your writing... but perhaps i am not a true libertarian as i value the social contract of universal human rights along with individual liberty and do not see them in conflict.
Why must they be in conflict? We are not. As a buddhist, i agree... material issues are irrelevant, yet indeed, they are the chessboard on which egos play politics.
Do you not think that when all people have ALL the liberty they ever wanted, that the next step would not be for them to make a social contract that ALL peoples have theat liberty... and the progressive movement towards universal liberty and "the enlightenment"... on which all liberalism is founded. Without individual liberty, what is the enlightenment but empty words from centuries ago.
