Many of you have probably heard the story about the Tennessee man who lost his house because he didn't pay the $75 annual fee for fire services, and lot of online comments we've seen about this have claimed that this is what we could look forward to in a libertarian society.  We take on this view and give you our perspective.

And finally, are there degrees of libertarianism, or is it "you either are libertarian, or you're not"?
