Sobre Krugman e Libertarianismo

Nesta coluna do Paul Krugman, ele critica o libertarianismo por, no seu entendimento, precisar de políticos incorruptíveis. Ummm... Não seria o estado-babá (ou qualquer outra alternativa) que precisa de políticos incorruptíveis, pois transfere mais poderes a eles? David Boaz comenta:

"The libertarian system of markets and property rights is impeded when politicians interfere in it. But Krugman’s ideal system is that politicians should decide all questions — monetary policy, health care policy, product safety, environmental tradeoffs, you name it. Whose system is more likely to produce corrupt politicians, and more likely to fail because of them?"
