Get Outta the Club

Sometimes it seems like there is an inner totalitarian lurking in every libertarian breast. It comes out whenever one is REALLY annoyed.

If you own and operate a SUV, Jane Galt thinks your "negative externalities" should be corrected by the state.

Corrected, of course, means "a hefty carbon tax [and] a tax on vehicle height."

I expected more resistance to the idea and other forms of state ownership of your property in the comments, but I assumed wrong. Most of them choose to academically whittle at the details of imposing new use and purchase restrictions on what is not rightfully theirs.

There's always one issue or another that exposes the fake libertarians. Why would anyone ever again waste time listening to their insincere moaning when The Gun gets turned back around in their direction?
