It snowed yesterday in Michigan and they had the perfect sled run all

She came in and said "things were perfect and then the city ruined

Well, of course. Libertarians only care about themselves.

It is better than only caring what others have to give you, usually at
the point of a government gun.


Having the streets plowed by the local government so you can get to
work, the grocery store, to a doctor's appointment or to school, as
examples, is certainly government at the point of a gun. So, if you
lived up north, you'd be out there as a libertarian, insisting the local
government not plow the road in front of your house, eh? Would you have
your trusty sidearm on your hip?

Nuts with the local government plowing streets. We do that a lot ourselves. That's why farmers around here have tractors with blades on them. Sometimes waiting on the township crew can be frustrating. Off and on I spent two days plowing here last year...

How wonderful for you. I don't own a snowplow. I contract with the guy
who does our heavy landscaping. He has a plow and a big 4WD truck, and
typically gets to us within a day of a heavy snowfall. That's good
enough. The county and the state highway commission take care of the
public roads pretty quickly.

Tim, do you have to cart your garbage to the dump in your car, like
Harry does?

Nope, trash night it womorrow morning. Just need to have it to the curb by 5am. At the farm the trash (mostly cardboard and paper products) goes right into whe wood stove...

Metals go into the recycle barrel then to tune local scrap yard. No I don't need to haul anything like that.

We just have paper and foil trash, and empty metal cans and bottles,
which I haul once a week a few miles to the local county trash out. It's
one of those non-libertarian services. Garbage goes down the disposal,
and edible leftovers we're not going to eat go out into the woods for
the critters.

You must have your share of rats and raccoons hanging around your house.

A non-libertarian service would pick it up in front of your house.
I am still not sure why you think libertarians want to eliminate every
thing the government does. We just want a choice.
It sounds like what you have there. I am sure if you had enough
neighbors/voters interested, you would have a county contract with a
mobbed up union carting service who would haul away your trash.
You seem to live among more libertarians than I do but that does not
surprise me. Do they get the same rancor you bestow on me?

leftovers we're not going to eat go out into the woods for

Feeding the rats? OK I suppose, if that is the way you want to go.
Most people who actually care about wildlife, say you should not feed
them. It interrupts the natural balance and is usually not the food
they are supposed to be eating anyway.
I do understand this is more laziness than anything else tho. Just
throw your garbage out in the yard and let the environment suffer from
it.
