Most political parties and views can be identified with an
originating group. Whether it's the landed gentry of the Tories or the
Unions for Labour, Libertarianism is no different, it has its genesis
in the salesman. I say man because I've yet to find a libertarian
woman.
Salesmen make nothing, their job is to take something someone else has made and to get somebody else to buy it from them rather than
from another salesman.
It is not a job that takes 5 years from
start to finish, it's level of planning is not far above zero. If there
were no salesmen people would still have to buy things they just would
have the time to make a proper decision rather than being badgered by
some arrogant git. You only need salesmen because of other salesmen and
even then only if your product isn't the best.
If we are to be
believed then we don't need rules because the best will always win, the
market will see to that but the job of the salesman is to make sure that
the best product doesn't win. His entire job is to prevent the merits
of a product counting for very much.In a world organised by Libertarians nobody would design or do anything they would be too busy trying to buy things cheap and sell them for a lot.
