Libertarianism works really well in communities sized under Dunbar’s number. Once you have more than that, you need much stronger laws. Young people just don’t have the experience to know just how much diversity there is in the world around them.
Dunbar’s number is only around 150, so that greatly limits the number of situations Libertarianism works well in.
Which pretty much makes it functionally impossible post WW2 with a few super rural exceptions. Even then those locations benefit greatly from government subsidies. I’m thinking of a lot of the Alaska villages that get oil money from the state but even those towns of 200 people in Wyoming have roads and electricity only because of government programs. If you want to be a part of the world in any way shape or form you need some type of government and any government needs taxes to be able to function.
