Most "libertarians" are this dumb, but the old school ones at least attribute the problems to uneven regulation rigged in favor of the ruling class, which does jive with my understanding of what is wrong with the financial system. That being said, libertarianism wouldn't work even if they did get shit straight.

Many years ago a bunch got together and essentially took over a town. Several years later the town got over ran by bears because no one wanted to handle trash properly.

Waste management is a very difficult problem that the entire globe struggles with to be fair.

Not exactly the best example of why libertarians are doomed to fail but you’ve got the spirit

I mean there is more to the story, essentially if you've seen wild wild country they did that where they become the majority then decided against public works
