@xianc78 @ArdainianRight @0vtcast mainly though, Rothbard never got caught with arguing about how to most economically implement socialism. He was much quicker to call such people evil and immoral, and hammer the injustice of their actions, before adding that their actions would also impoverish them. This swipe at him is like saying that Ron Paul's a degenerate atheist, or that Lew Rockwell's a reliable supporter of the current thing.

razorfist probably had some argument in mind against Milton Friedman (like how he gave us the withholding tax), and then threw Rothbard into the picture as, eh, probably the same kind of person. They looked enough alike.
