   So if a person who uses any government services (even when the   
   government is a monopoly provider) is ineligible to be a   
   libertarian by reason of hypocrisy, is a person who uses any private   
   services (even when the government does not provide the service)   
   ineligible to be a socialist for the same reason?

   The problem with socialism is there's always   
   someone with less ability and more need.
