Although I think you can easily find instances of people practicing 'libertarian principles' (and probably just as easily 'communist principles'), IMHO there is a great distance between that and a successful public policy.

The reason why I also mention communism is that I find libertarianism and communism to be very similar in the fact that they don't naturally occur on large scales, which I think is very telling.
