But I believe that they are blinded by the false notion that things used to be so much better back when... ...when in fact that is a lie.

The reality of “back then” was that many suffered and were inconvenienced at the whim of the rich who ran roughshod over the entire population. They were the ones who made the laws and they were the one who ignored those same laws with impunity.

Now, If they were all mountain men who each had 100,000 acres of their own to hunt and survive on and did not see another human but once in a blue moon, that's one thing; but they live in a community, a state, a country with three hundred million other souls and a world with 6 billion and the sooner they realize that their selfish thoughts and concerns have to be made subservient to the "will of the people," and to “what is best for most people,” the sooner we will all be better off.
You have really made quite clear that you don't understand what you're talking about. You've just equated Libertarians to Utopian based fanatics. Couldn't be more inaccurate. Please actually read at LP.org so you don't sound quite so silly
