I would agree with that though if the core problem is the Israeli on going attempts to colonize the West Bank, there are many more than just neo-cons who support that.  

Yes Libertarians have been a voice in the wilderness, one of the few that talk about blowback.  Foreign policy realists also prefer less expensive, risky ways of accomplishing foreign policy objectives than violent takings, war, occupation and similar.  

Rational collective choice is a tough sell.

Apparently the anti-socialist economics report does not mention that the Nordic social democracies perform so well because they do freemarket capitalism so well.

People in the USA believe in well-defined economic property rights except they also believe in important ethnic, racial and other sectarian exceptions to those rights.   I suppose that is in part due to the glorification of ethnic cleansing in popular American culture.

 
Oh yea in between drinking puppies and kittens blood of course. {#Cheers}
 
No, of course not.  Just in between aerial bombings of civilians especially Arab and Muslim civilians.

Happy ethnic cleansing terrorism!
P.S.  sirdroseph:  I regard the US War on Terror as a) the ultimate in hypocrisy and b) highly anti-democratic.  I fully expect it to blow back against American citizens.

  This video has that woman in it - around the 3:30 mark.  She appears to be filming it, not taking a selfie, at least at that point.

France’s Tax Burden Now the Highest of Any OECD Country 

French President Emmanuel Macron this week suspended an unpopular increase in fuel taxes to quell protests against the hike. But if the so-called Yellow Vests movement wants to push now for a full cancellation of the increase, it just got some data to support its case: France had the highest tax burden across the 34 OECD nations last year, according to a report published Wednesday. The ratio increased to 46.2 percent, pushing France above Denmark, which had led the ranking for more than a decade.
