How to Speak Libertarians' Language for Planning

In this post from Strong Towns Blog, Andrew Burleson describes how he finds common ground with Libertarians when he is explaining the Strong Towns message. This is the second in a series of articles on understanding the political languages that different groups find compelling. 

"Libertarians tend to have mixed reactions to the Strong Towns Message. On the one hand, true libertarians are naturally skeptical of big government and big business, and not terribly shocked by the financial data we're sharing. It isn't hard for them to imagine that unwise government spending and the big business that capitalizes on it have created an economic Ponzi scheme. The idea that towns should focus on local productivity tends to go over pretty easily as well."
