Reddit Becoming More anti-Libertarian

I keep telling people that healthcare is just a giant, government created cartel, but nobody wants to listen to my "crazy" libertarian views.

One of the only sensible comments in the thread. 

More and more, most Reddit readers sound quite vested in maintaining the status quo. Any free market or libertarian concepts that come up are met with substantial opposition, including individual liberty in the face of an authoritative regime in the US. Are they actually opposed to promoting liberty?

Given the success of the Occupy movement motivating such large masses, I am saddened that the majority want to keep doing what has so obviously been outright failure.

Most Reddit readers just don't get it, and are caught up in the failed Left-Right paradigm. They believe that simply swinging the pendulum of power back to the other side with fix all of our problems, but history proves otherwise. 

Left and Right are both wrong
