From " Rand Paul and the Perils of Textbook Libertarianism" in today's Times.

Filed Under:
I'll go further: In enjoining whole-hog the straw man argument against collective legislative power, the Tea Party nitwits would deliver us completely unprotected into a bullshit corporate Wild West. The enemy isn't federal legislation or regulation, as if the opposite of regulation were somehow liberty.  The enemy, as always, is oppression--in this country more often served up by business interests than government.

These folks are too wrapped up in their libertarian Id to consider what happens if and when you actually try to roll back government protections and limits on business.  As if corporate concerns have any relationship whatsoever to private ones....  It's about time to stop oversimplifying the problem. It's not Big Guy vs Little Guy in any neat polar way.

From the article
"This points to the bind Mr. Paul is in. However attractive it may be just now to depict all political conflict as a neatly bifurcated either/or, with the heroic individual pitted against the faceless federal Leviathan, the truth is that legislative battles over civil rights laws were waged within government, and between competing incarnations of it, federal vs. state."
