To an extent, yes, I'm afraid you should discount my view. Pure
libertarianism is and ideal, whether or not it works in the real world remains to be seen. Likely remains to be seen forever.

Yes. I like much about libertarianism. Whether it gets a chance to be tried, it seems to me, is whether its adherents ever learn that politics is the art of compromise.

The point about this is
that we have turned over our caution to the government totally and naively. We need to replace that with being informed and wary.

I think you know the steep hill to an informed populace. I think you know that is not accomplished by merely saying what we "need to do." What do you or the Libertarian Party suggest?

I see the opposite. I see it [Caveat emptor] as favoring the wary, the
informed, the savvy.

Again, the steep hill. How shall it be ascended?

I believe that upon "reading the law" the candidate is entitled to take the
Bar. I say this because I was once in this process.


"Can I take the Virginia bar exam if I did not graduate from a law school which was approved by the American Bar Association (ABA) at the time of my graduation?

"No. The Board has adopted the ABA Standards for Approval of Law Schools. Thus it is unlikely that a law school which has been found not to comply with the Standards by the ABA would be approved by the Board."

Take the instance of small claims courts, attorneys
are not allowed there (unless they are one of the disputants) and they work
more efficiently by far than regular chancellory courts.

I very much like Small Claims Court procedures and have been involved in same, as well as arbitration, in which I was heavily involved and which I find even more efficient than SCC.
