Roy, what you are describing is an anarchist.

It was a long time ago I talked with him, and no doubt I have at least some of it wrong. But Anarchist seems to fit better.

A libertarian knows very well that some taxes are necessary as is some
government. Hmm .. OK schools systems are pretty much entirely useless.

I was in a group this evening where it was brought up that many decades of research has failed to prove that homework for school students does NO good in educating them better. Also, the students in schools which are very unstructured (No lesson plans, no classes, no tests, no state approved minimum achievement standards...but LOTS of available stuff to do with and learn with) do way better than average students in structured schools.

Libertian = as little government as is humanly possible.
Anarchist = no government at all.

Thanks for the clarification. I appreciate it.

Roy
