Those libertarians are giving parasites a bad name and I resent that. I somewhat like parasites, I wrote some **[interesting random facts I stumbled across about them](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/tell-us-an-interesting-random-fact-you-stumbled-across-part-1/851674/8284)** some time ago. I have never written anything even remotely as positive about libertarians.
