Morality as a Plus-Sum Game :: Why Libertarianism Fails as a Social Policy :: http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/73072

"Libertarian doctrine drops the cooperation criterion of gamesmanship in favor of “YOYO” – "you’re on your own." The libertarian dogma of “the invisible hand” decrees that a collection of self-serving individuals seeking only to maximize their own personal freedom and wealth, will somehow, by “spontaneous generation,” evolve into an optimum social arrangement. No explicit rules and regulations are required apart from those laws designed to achieve the goal of the protection of the lives, liberties and property of each individual."
