Libertarians

I've been thinking a lot about libertarians lately, just because. Seems like the fine folks at the Onion were thinking about them, too. Note that a cigarette was involved in the story. Sometimes, I get a little libertarian when enjoying a Marlboro Light, but then, all of the sudden, the feeling dissipates like the nicotine buzz.

Libertarian Reluctantly Calls Fire Department
CHEYENNE, WY—After attempting to contain a living-room blaze started by a cigarette, card-carrying Libertarian Trent Jacobs reluctantly called the Cheyenne Fire Department Monday. "Although the community would do better to rely on an efficient, free-market fire-fighting service, the fact is that expensive, unnecessary public fire departments do exist," Jacobs said. "Also, my house was burning down." Jacobs did not offer to pay firefighters for their service.
