Bad Summations

This is a rather poor - and frivolous  - attempt at describing libertarians.

Without a doubt, hands down, libertarianism is the most misunderstood of the major political and social philosophies. One of the reasons, and this is just my suspicion, is because people - mostly liberals - have passed off their freedoms and live vicariously through the state. So whenever they hear "kooky" libertarians they view them as though they're monsters under the bed. Yet, to me, it's the simplest of all isms to grasp.
