After I sent my tense challenged version of the definition to you, I had a guy send me ten definitions of libertarian. I felt so ignorant.
I saw a neo-libertarian defined in terms of a neo-con who is a libertarian, otherwise. We have to draw the line somewhere, I think.

No particular opinion about very general definitions of the word. More interesting to me at least is a characterization of how the terms are used.

Dr. Chomsky,
I would be interested to see your critique of my definition:
Chapman's Definition of a "libertarian" (noun):
libertarian: 1) one who clings to "liberty"/ "freedom" (Greek word: elutheria) -- without liability or obligation.
2) one who is in opposition to "enslavers" (Greek word: andrapodistes) -- a) one who imposes a taxing of labor and/ or the intrinsic value of property, property being the physical manifestation of labor. b) to number as cattle.
3) an Anti-Marxist: one opposed to anything related to the forced collectivism of the state (i. e. Karl Marx and "The Communist Manifesto").
