would not this weak government advocated by libertarians be unable to
prohibit animal experiments, toxic waste production and dumping, importation
of wild animals or their body parts, etc. (that is, would it be unable to
both pass such laws and enforce them)? The fact that our legislation is
bad does not suggest that the ability to legislate should be eliminated; buy
(sic) but only that we should change our laws.
Animal rights advocates therefore in general support strong government but
lobby for new and better laws.
