Isn't the idea of "limited government" really just a perpetuation of the inequalities that exist in society? This is a common "libertarian" tactic, espouse "limited government" except for building a wall on the border, or funding the military. No limitations there, its just things like health care where they want "limited government." I know you're not actually a libertarian, but IMO contemporary libertarianism is a fraud perpetuated by the rich to impose inequality. 3 comments
@UkraineWillWin @rbreich Under libertarian socialism however the 'state' is the people, its functions are carried out by the people as a horizontal structure. @UkraineWillWin @rbreich It's interesting to think of how a libertarian socialist 'state' would interact with the rest of the world. In Rojava where a lot of these ideas have been implemented they have a figurehead legislature with no real power because that's what other countries expect to be able to interact with. |

@UkraineWillWin @rbreich Libertarian capitalist ideas of limited government are functionally just feudalism, the rich playing the roll of the state.
