Liberterianism - An ideology so "good" it only took root in comminist/socialist terrified america. That is selfishness in its entirety and somehow expects people to act on their best nstures.
Libertarians don't actually give a crap about 'liberty'. Free market capitalism gives us $300 bottles of insulin and people dying for the lack of it, and no, 'the free market will provide' is not an answer, it's a declaration of religious faith.
When you're willing to sacrifice actual lives on the altar of your 'personal liberty', because ideology tells you that government intervention is bad, you don't get to say you're for freedom since the freedom to breathe is the ultimate personal liberty.
Trying to frame that as anything like a legitimately "Free" market is a bad joke though.
While it is completely unacceptable, it's not a completely unacceptable situation brought to you by anything like free market capitalism. "Distinctly American...." capitalism? Sure.
Never mind something like sex work. A "Free..." market, it ain't.
My mom paid $110 for a single insulin pen.
No one can tell me that it's not free market capitalism doing its level best to deliver profits by extracting wealth from a captive, inelastic market that needs the drug to survive and declare that 'that's not the free market part!, because an even *less* regulated system wouldn't be better.
If it is the "American..." version of it that is making sure there are laws on the books that make it against the law to import from Canada, that's not anything like "Free..." While I do agree that reducing regulations willy nilly isn't going to make things better for people, there's not really a scenario where consumers wouldn't be better off with at least having the legal option to import from Canada. That regulation is only there to look out for business.
