> libertarians do not, under any circumstances, condone fraud
Another way to respond to this, and hopefully a more constructive way, is to ask, "How do libertarians want anti-fraud laws enforced?" I ask this because the constant rallying cry of "fight big government by cutting taxes" has resulted in my state having basically no department of consumer protection left, no EPA, and so on.
Is this a libertarian policy that backfired or do libertarians think that law enforcement can be done some other way that would be completely no cost to the tax payers?
