As I recall it, SKYFALL ended pretty nasty but had some great lines by Tennysson in it:

We are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are. One equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Skybird is plugging a Ludwig von Mises cult member again I see. Though North seems to combine his von Mises dingbattery with demands for rule by a Christian theocracy. So much for 'libertarianism'.

- L.v. Mises

Translation:
Once the key-note of socialism and interventionalism - that market economy would disadvantage the majority of the population for the benefit of a minority of profiteers - is accepted as to be correct, the libertarian position has been relinquished.

And how exactly does that prove anything? The fact is that these so-called 'libertarians' have amongst their numbers an authoritarian fundamentalist who thinks that women that lie about their virginity and children who disrespect their parents should be stoned to death. A viewpoint closer to that of the Taliban than any movement actually concerned with individual liberty.
