I really wanted to enjoy this book because libertarianism only works in fairytales, and who doesn't like a fairytale with bears?
The book was well-researched, but the actual writing was sometimes obnoxious, especially when describing a person's looks. My favorite awful thing Hongoltz-Hetling did was a too-long play on the word "butt." There was also a very weird chapter that implied libertarians might be infected with the parasite that causes toxoplasmosis, without any actual evidence.
Oh, and the author really dislikes guns. And thinks Bernie Sanders was the governor of Vermont (I'm from Chicago, but I don't think that's true???). Matthew, darling, if you need a better editor, hire me - I'll keep you from describing someone as essentially an old and bedraggled Anna Kendrick (what does that even look like?). It's offensive, and honestly, what does it have to do with bears?

Not quite the book I thought It'd be, but the 2nd half came close. Interesting stuff.
