Beyond "Abolish The FDA"

\u201cAbolish the FDA\u201d has become a popular slogan in libertarian circles. I\u2019m sympathetic to the spirit of the demand. But a slogan isn\u2019t a plan, and this one is even less of a plan than usual.

I used to think that since libertarians always lose, there was no point in having a real plan for what to do if they won. But now that they\u2019ve gone from \u201cliterally always lose\u201d to \u201conly lose 99.9% of the time\u201d . . .
