It would work better if the link worked.
What is this?
I fairly common anti-libertarian argument by someone who is not an idiot, for a change.
I'm nt too familier with this guy to be honest but I think if this man is normally not an idiot somebody should mak a video correcting him.
Wow at the fail in the comments.
In response to the fail in video and the comments.
THE STUPID, IT BURNS!!!!!!
Watched the first minute and it's an argument that's already been addressed a million times which tells me this guy has made no effort whatsoever to read his opposition.
Not interested.
Molyneux came up with one of my favorite rebuttals to that argument. Something along the lines of "Without the government all the roads would turn in to turnips and everybody would forget how to build them."

After seeing both the video and his behavior in the comments, I have to disagree with your assessment of him.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Honeslty can we get some citation for "not an idiot"?
Depends on what you consider "an idiot" i guess.

Anyone who insults Libertarians for using the roads is an idiot.
Anyone who thinks that accepting the label "Libertarian" means they're "abdicating having to think" is an idiot.
Anyone who says that values that Libertarians have are not Libertarian values is an idiot.
Anyone who says that inhibiting your freedom of movement because it's a "convenience" and not a necessity is an idiot.
Anyone who says that UL and ISO's requirements don't count as "rules" is an idiot.
Anyone who doesn't recognize the difference between donating land for a private park and government taking land to build a state park (the same difference between lovemaking and rape) is an idiot.
Anyone who doesn't understand the difference between "government" doing something and "science" doing something ("science" is completely intangible and has no force behind it) is an idiot.
I'm concluding he's an idiot.

I concluded that from the title of the video.

I still haven't been able to parse it.
