This week I want to discuss how Individualists are painting themselves into a corner by protecting themselves against the onslaught of Progressive attacks. It is a classic case of the Prisoner's Dilemma, where both sides are best off cooperating but one side is doing whatever it can to win. As such, if the other party does nothing they will face maximum punishment. The GOP is being forced to defend people who might, in some situations, be beyond defending. This is ripe for exploitation.
