I can see some of Dubyah's points, but they seem inconsistent with pure Libertarianism. They assume there is some reality to mutual interests and group effort that transcend the ultimate value of the individual. In other words, government is the expression of the group and the group has some legitimate authority over and above the individual. But as soon as this point is granted; that there are group interests and collective goods that can only be achieved by the cooperation of many, a person is well on the road to socialism.
