"We don't need no gub'ment, um, until we do," is the familiar refrain from elderly hypocrite libertarian types.
Ayn Rand is a known hypocrite, taking Social Security and Medicare benefits. Plus, she was a devout atheist. I'm not sure how the "religious" right squares her views with their heartfelt Christianity, the pairing is inexplicable.
And now recently uncovered documents show that Charles Koch himself tried to lure Friedrich Hayek (the other Tea Party hero) to the US to take a position at one of his libertarian think tanks, by sending him a letter encouraging him to take advantage of our Social Security system.
Oh, the hypocrisy. You see, when libertarians are young and healthy, they don't think they will ever need government assistance. But when they grow old or sick, you know what? They'll take it!
