I have no opinion on your sanity one way or the other. Rather, I'm "suggesting" that you're a hypocrite. The basis for that opinion has nothing to do with ideology...libertarian or otherwise. It had everything to do with your original post which was disingenuous to the point of being ridiculous.
Thus, my comment.
Unfortunately, hypocrite is a word that doesn't carry nearly the weight it used to. [Queue our resident John Mellencamp lyricist...]

Could have saved yourself the second question...you've already found the exception that disproves the rule. I've said it before...I'll say it again. The far left & the far right have more in common with either other than either has with the middle.

I didn't post the comment you're replying to here. I don't consider myself better than anyone else because I pay their salary - directly or indirectly. Quite the contrary. If I'm willing to pay another's salary - directly or indirectly - it's because I value the work that they do.
