About
A libertarian utopia or libertarian paradise is either of the following:
- a hypothetical society in which marketist (i.e. US libertarian) ideas are taken to their logical conclusion
- any actual society or group which has substantially adopted (or was founded upon) such principles
The second definition tends to be sarcastic, since such societies invariably degenerate into corrupt hell-holes – despite frequent marketist claims that such principles will inevitably lead to a happier, more egalitarian and economically just society.
